I have been through this. I had to make the devastating decision to terminate a much wanted pregnancy for medical reasons in June. It was h*ll. Sheer h*ll. The laminaria terrified me too, but weren't as awful as I anticipated. But the emotional aspects are HORRIBLE. Where you are right now, waiting and still pregnant but about to not be, is the worst. Right now you are living the worst. Please, please PM me if you want to talk about any of it. ANY of it. Nothing is TMI. I wanted to know everything. Soooooo many hugs to you!!!!!!!!!!!!

E- my heart hurts for you. It is not fair for you to have to be experiencing this. You will be in my thoughts and prayers! We are here for you to vent on anytime! Hugs!!

I'm just so, so sorry. Please don't ever worry that you would offend anyone here by talking about this-- I can't imagine that anyone would have that reaction. We all just with there was something we could do to make this less painful for you.

My little sister went through something similar last year. It just sucks. (((hugs)))

And I agree with pp suggestion that you think about whether telling your family would be helpful for *you*, to get yourself some more support and help. I understand that it would be devastating for them, but I think they'd also want to be there for you.

OH my gosh, I'm just getting on the Bump after a few days. I'm so so sorry. I don't understand everything you just said in your post because I haven't been following, so I'll look back, but MAN this sucks so bad. I'm so sorry again. Why do these things happen to such good people?

I am so sorry you are going through this, IF is just a horrible thing to go through. It is not fair at all. I continue to keep you and your family in my thoughts.

dusk42 · February 2011

I'm so sorry.

Thinking of you this week.

jenber77 · February 2011

I cannot believe the D&E is going to take three days! WTF? Talk about dragging out the torture. I am so sad for you, and angry for you, and I sincerely wish this whole trauma could be erased from your life. Since that is impossible, I hope the next week goes by as quickly as possible and that you can find peace when it's over.

E- I am so incredibly sorry that you are going through this. Please know that my thoughts are with you and your family. Lots of ((hugs)), Sweetie.

Oh E, I am so sorry that you have to go through this. It's so heartbreaking and unfair. (((((((hugs)))))) Thinking of you...

I'm just so sorry that you are going through this...and angry for you

dansbride06 · February 2011

I am so sorry you are going through this and will have such a hard week. It is unfair that it is happening and brutal that it will take 3 days. You will be in my thoughts this week. (hugs)

alchris · February 2011

I wish I were there to help you. I'd drop everything to help and be with you in any way you needed me.

It's not fair that anyone should ever have to make a decision so difficult, so impossible. It's natural that there will be times that you question your decision, but as that happens please know that you made the best decision possible for yourself at the time, and that you had to have been a very strong woman to make such a decision.

Much, much love to you and D. Holding your hand in spirit, E.

You are so right about that - it suuuuuuuuuuuucks. It beyond sucks. It's a terrible thing no one should ever have to go through.

I completely understand your need to try and get on with you life as best you can, and to forget this ever happened. We all process these things differently and if that's what helps you heal, then that's exactly what you need. But I want you to know that it's ok if you need to grieve. You can be strong and smart and a wonderful mama and still be scared and sad and angry about what you're going through. Be gentle with yourself. Take time. Don't have expectations about how you should feel and don't force yourself to feel how you want to feel.

I wish someone could take this all away. I wish you didn't know this pain. I wish you had peace. But if you're in pain today, it's ok to own it.

And we're here for you, of course. However you need us to be, we're here.
