Miscarriage/Pregnancy Loss

Wasn't ready for the news

When I first went to the doctor I was supposed be due June 5 judging by my LMP.....the doctor told me it was not the case that the embryo measured to be due June 15.  I should have suspected something then I guess.  Then was diagnosed with a subchorionic hemorrhage so that scared me.  Yesterday I had a little bleeding and the doctor made me come in today and she did an US and I waited for her to say "ok here's the heartbeat", but she didn't instead she said "i don't see a heartbeat."  How devastating....she sent me to radiology to confirm and I saw the head and the extremities (so cute) but no heartbeat:(  My husband met me there and we are now very sad.  It was our first pregnancy.  I am scheduled for a D&C on Wednesday.  Any advice?

  • I am so very sorry for your loss. I too lost my first pregnancy, and it is very hard, but I did find much comfort and support through posting here throughout the stages of my loss.

  • I'm really sorry you are going through this. I too lost our first baby and am waiting until we can try again. Every day is slightly better than the day before and you'll cry less and less. Take care of yourself. It isn't fair and I feel for you.

  • I'm so sorry you're dealing with this. It's so hard. The only thing that helps me is talking to other women who have experienced this and having time alone to cry on the bad days. One day we'll all be happy again, I'm sure of it.

  • Oh I'm so sorry.  ((hugs))  This board is really good for support. 
  • I'm so sorry that you have to go through this.  Mine was a first pregnancy loss as well and similar situation as yours. I was not ready to hear the news either, and it was devastating for sure.  I had a D&C the following week and it wasn't so bad physically.The procedure didn't take long and it was a pretty easy recovery physically. Emotionally it's a whole different story, not necessarily because of the D&C but everything about coping with this loss.  Please surround yourself with people who can be there for you to support you.  It's very important to have someone to talk to or just to listen as you cry or scream about how awful this is.  And, the ladies of this message board are a huge source of support too.  I hope you and your DH are able to get through this and come out stronger. 

  • So sorry for your loss. {{{HUGS}}} my only advice is if your DH can stay home with you for a few days I would recommend that. It really helped me from losing my mind.

    The d&c shouldn't be too bad physically but of course the toll it takes emotionally will be hard to deal with. There will be good days and bad days but overall it does slowly get better as the days go on.  Hang in there.

  • I'm so sorry for your loss.  My only advice is to let yourself grieve in whatever way helps you.  Come here and vent whenever you need to; the ladies here have been so, so helpful when it seems like no one in the "real" world understands what I'm feeling.

    You're in my thoughts and prayers.
  • so sorry for your loss.. ((HUGS)))

  • I'm so very sorry that you're going through this.  I'm going through this as well and am recovering from the D&C I had Thursday. I go back and forth between tears and just feeling numb.  The D&C was okay and not too painful.  I'm just sore and have cramping but haven't had any bleeding since about 24 hours after the D&C. Not sure if it will come back or not

    I hope you have a lot of family support and cry as much as you need to.  PM me if you need to chat.

  • I don't have any advice as I'm going through the same thing myself.  Just wishing you all the strength you need and hugs.  I wish I could say something that would make it easier but I haven't found those words for myself yet.

    You're definitely in my thoughts.

  • Same with me...  Every day gets a little better but I need to do things to remember the baby like go to mass, write in my journal about them, buy an ornament, etc.  Talking to my girlfriends who have had miscarriages and girls on this board has really helped.  It's all so unfair but we'll get through this and will be happy again.
  • I am sorry for your loss. I just lost my first pregnancy about 2 weeks ago. {{hugs}}
