I'm feeling a little awkward here. I'm still in a little disbelief that I'm posting here. I just never imagined this would happen to me. I'm sure all of you thought the same thing.
I wonder if gradually the dissapointment will subside or it won't really until I get pregnant again.
Re: New here...
I know how you feel. I think I'm still in a state of disbelief. I haven't actually miscarried yet (An extremely low heartrate was detected on ultrasound last week. I go back to the dr on Thurs for a followup if no bleeding or cramping before then.) but I can't believe it actually happened to me and that I am posting on this board instead of the first trimester board.
So sorry for your loss. ((hugs))
I was certainly not expecting to be posting on this board either. Since my d&c last week and finding out there was no heartbeat the week before, I have had good days and sad days. I am sure you will feel better with time.
I find comfort knowing that m/c is very common. It seems like everyone I talk to lately has had one and then gone on to have several children. We lost ours very early on (measured 6 weeks at 9 week ultrasound) and I am grateful for that at least. I couldn't imagine going 20 weeks or full term and having something happen, ugh!
I am really sorry for your loss. I turned to this board often (mostly as a lurker) and I found comfort in everyone's words. I felt like everyone here really knew what I was going through when friends/family did not. My D&C was August 15th. I cried alot the first few weeks. Once I started teaching again I was pretty busy. I stil think about it all the time - but am trying to stay optomistic because I want to get pg again.
