Intro...
Hi ladies,
I've been lurking here for the last week, and think it's high time to introduce myself. I had a natural miscarriage last Saturday at 8w2d, after an u/s showed a yolk sac with no fetal pole measuring 5w5d last Friday. I had a follow-up u/s this morning, and am going to be starting misoprostol tonight (400mg every 6 hours for two days) for some remaining tissue.
This week has been the hardest week of my life. I miscarried during a work trip that I was on with all of my organization's higher-ups, so it was incredibly difficult, and we hadn't told anyone IRL that we were pregnant yet--so aside from DH, I haven't had a lot of support this week. I feel bad that I can't tell DH how to make me feel better--I don't think he understands that it's just going to take time, and it will happen eventually. Your advice to others has already been a great help this week, so thank you!
We'll always remember our angel baby: BFP 9/24/10, M/C 10/23/10 8w4d
Re: Intro...
Hi. Glad you posted. For me, it helps to realize what happened and that I got through "the main event" and now am dealing with the after effects. Each day, for me, does get a little bit better, although it's only been since Tuesday. But I am so glad the initial shock and horror is fading. My dr has been amazing, emphasizing that it could have been far worse and that I will get pregnant again within time....so I have been tying to focus on those positives. Thank goodness for this group....it makes me feel like I am not alone.
T&P your way.
