in Miscarriage/Pregnancy Loss

So yesterday afternoon, I went to the lab to confirm my m/c with some blood work. I had been fine all day, had lunch with a dear friend and was feeling emotionally stable. So I get to the lab and they dont' have my order...ok, I can deal with that. Call my dr, and have them re fax it....45 mins later they refax it. In this time I have witnesses 3 (VERY) pregnant ladies walk in front of me and one new mother with her new baby being wheeled out. So I deceide to just put my head down until they call my name.....I put my head down and there is a little side table next to me with magazines....what magazine is on top?????? Frickin'  FIT PREGNANCY....I was like "really"?!? WTF?!?  Ok, so I recover from that....then they finally call my name, and I go back for the lab work...1st guy sticks me twice and misses, then a lady comes in and sticks me twice....I couldn't hold it in anymore...I completely broke down and started SOBBING....(I'm talking THE UGLY CRY!) She finally got the blood she needed....but I was a MESS! I had to explain to her why I was crying...she was SO nice about it and after whe was finished she asked to give me a big hug. I felt so stupid...but she was great about it....

 

What an emotional roller coaster I'm on!! Here's to hoping that today can go alittle better!!!

    That's how I felt through my first M/C.  My "First OB appointment" changed to a GYN appointment to make sure my body was properly expelling the baby, and I didn't know that because they changed the nature of my appointment, they changed the time.  So I ended up getting there an hour before my appointment iwthout knowing it.  Of course when I checked in, no one bothered to tell me how early I was.  So I sat in teh waiting room , and watched as 15 happily pregnant women checked in and left.  Finally, I started to break down in hysterical tears when an observant nurse realized what was going on and escorted me to a back room for me to wait.  It's tough, but it will make you stronger.  If it wasn't for that experience, I would have never survived going through this a second time.

    You poor thing.  How awful!  I managed to hold off my ugly cry till the I got back in the car.  Not to say that the tears didn't start prior to that, with all the happy pregnant couples staring at me.

     Did you get your results back yet?  Mine were as expected, and I decided to go ahead with the D&C this morning.  I just couldn't imagine going through with this for any longer. 

     I'll be thinking of you,

    Jill

    Ouch!!

    I've been there too.  The maternity ward of my hospital is plastered with pictures of happy moms and babies, as well as cute lil footprints and handprints.  I wrote them a letter and they wrote me back apologizing.  They also said that they would consider my concerns the next time they remodel.

    I am so sorry. That is totally how I felt too. It sucks. And nobody knows how bad unless they have been through it. I had a day like that when I went back for my d&c follow-up. Hang in there, each day you'll get a little stronger.

    I am dreading my d&c follow up appt for the same reason.  Sorry you had to deal with that!  At my office, it's either all pregnant teenagers or old ladies there for bone scans and mammograms.  I'm crossing my fingers I'll be there on bone scan day.
