T&P Please

in January 2011 Moms

I just got off the phone with my sister, and she lost her baby a few days ago.  She was right around 3mos.  She's still waiting for her d&c.  She kept trying to tell me she's okay, but I know she's just trying to make me think that.  I feel bad that she's losing someone right as I'm gaining someone.  She's being hopeful that they might try again.

She's 38, and this wasn't planned.  She talked to her new doctor about all the things they can do to be ready if they do want to try again later.  She lives about 2hours away.  I hope she doesn't bury herself in work and uses all of her friends down there for support.

    I'm sorry to hear she's going through that. Pregnancy is so risky. I hope they can try again later, if they choose.

    2hrs isn't too far! Maybe pop down on a weekend?

    She's planning on coming up here when our lo arrives.  I'm not sure how that's going to go.  We have to get a coolant issue fixed with our car, but we will definitely make a trip down there sometime while I'm on leave.

    Sad T&P's that all goes well during her visit with you, and that the both of you recovery well! (her from her mc and d&c and you from delivery)

    I would make sure that she knows how you feel. She's got to be full of so many conflicting emotions right now - happy for you because you are her sister, sad for herself because she's not going to have that baby. I got preganant with this baby at 39, so there is always hope for another for your sister. I am so sorry for her loss. It is such a hard thing to go through.

    Major T&P to her, and to you. It was very difficult for me to be around pregnant women and new babies after my miscarriage, so I hope that you can understand if it's really hard for her to visit you and she might not want to talk about your baby with you 24/7.

    And I am not sure if she's an internet person or not, but the Miscarriage/Pregnancy Loss and Trying to Conceive after a Loss boards here on the Bump helped keep me sane if she's looking for other support.
