I miscarried :(

in Infertility
I had a miscarriage Tuesday night at 7w2d. It was awful. To say we are devastated would be the understatement of the century. I know some of you have been there before, so any advice you can send my way is greatly appreciated. My heart is broken.
RE called my DH last night to check on us and to assure us that this was unfortunately something that just happens, almost always b/c the embryo is not genetically normal. That didn't make me feel any better b/c our embryo quality is my greatest concern. Our WTF is Tuesday.

Give yourself the time you need to heal. There will be dark days and there will be better days. I find spending lots of time with DH doing fun stuff helps keep my mind off things for a bit.
For me, I will always grieve my losses in some way but having a plan in place for when I'm ready to try again helps me through the healing process.
Also I'm trying a therapist this time around to see if that helps me heal.
I'm sorry you have to come back and I wish no one had to go through this. Big hugs sweetie.
I am so so sorry!
I lost my first pregnancy and all I can say is that is does get better. Let yourself grieve and do whatever you feel like you need to do to take care of yourself.
Huge hugs!

My goodness, I am so very sorry for your loss.
Moving forward with Adoption 2017!
I'm so sorry.
It at least sounds like you have a compassionate RE.
You're not alone in the embryo quality fears. Unfortunately I think they just get magnified with so much scientific knowledge. It's another IF kick in the teeth.
Hopefully your doctor is able to give you more answers and support. Thinking of you.

My Journey to Motherhood
Me 36, DH 42
7.5 years of TTC ... It never gets any easier.
Baby Girl # 1
TTC Since January 2009
Reproductive Endocrinologist diagnosed us "Unexplained Infertility".
After 3 years . . . 3 IUIs . . . and 3 IVFs . . . our miracle GIRL arrived on August 6, 2012.
Baby Girl # 2
TTC Since June 2013
Got pregnant on our own without Fertility Treatments - January 2016! Thank you snow storm Jonas!
EDD 10/15/16
At 20-week anatomy scan found IUGR (Intrauterine Growth Restriction), and very low Amniotic Fluid. Now, I'm High Risk and have weekly ultrasounds to monitor fluid and growth. If baby runs out of room or is too growth restricted, they will deliver ASAP. My current goal is to make it to 28 weeks!
-------------------------
TTC Since 10/2007 with no luck and a 'go with the flow' attitude
1/1010 FINALLY decided to have testing done, dx MFI
7/2010 - DH starts Clomid to increase testosterone and hopefully sperm count
10/2010 - Still low (but improved) sperm count.
11/30/10 - IUI #1 and only = BFN
February 2011 - IVF #1 w/ ICSI =
Chemical PG (Beta 1: 10, Beta 2: 19, Beta 3: 17) :-(
April 2011 - IVF #2 w/ ICSI = BFN :-(
September 2011 - IVF #3 w/ ICSI = BFFN
November 2011 - AMH level tested - .83 (normal for age range)
February 2012 - IVF #4 w/ ICSI = (best response ever yet still) BFFN
April 2012 - DNA testing - NORMAL, RE suggests cycling again with own eggs or using DE
On Break indefinitely...not sure we can afford the emotional and financial roller coaster anymore.
*PAIFW/SAIFW*
Everyone handles this sort of thing differently though. I was fine for a couple of weeks but broke down into an emotional basket case after that. Panic attacks were my particular brand of coping- bad enough that I finally asked for something to help from my RE. I've been on low dose Prozac for about three weeks and it helped a lot more than I expected it to. The sadness is still there, but it's not opressive. No more panic attacks from walking into the doctors office- no more unexpected panic attacks that had no triggers. I also dont dwell on the miscarriage for hours every night before i go to sleep. I find myself having good days more often than bad. It's not a cure- but it's helping me cope through the worst part and get to the other side. Don't be afraid to ask for something to help if you need help. That's my advice.
And I am also terribly sorry. No one should have to know how this feels.
Friends for 15 years. Married 8. TTC since January 2009

?SAIF/PAIF/PgAL/PAL always welcome?
Oh hun, I am so very sorry. This is just heartbreaking. You and your husband will be in my thoughts and prayer.
Going through this is devestating. It will get easier to deal with. You need to let yourself grief. I saw a therapist after my miscarriages and she said I needed to do something to give myself closure. She suggested a few things, but nothing fit. I decided to get two stars tattooed on my ankle, on what would have been the babies EDD. And it did help me. It helped me to move on, but I also still have them with me. A friend of mine got herself a ring and had it engraved. Really think about it. I hope you will be able to give yourself some closure and comfort.
Lean on us. We are all here for you.
Big hugs.

I'm so sorry for your loss
I have to tell you about my sister. --- She has a heart shaped uteris (not normal)...but had no trouble getting pregnant- but once she gets PG she has a really hard time KEEPING the baby...about 6 miscarriages and 4 dr.'s telling her she is unable to have a baby later... she finally carried to term my beautiful little godchild Kaleus who is now a 1 1/2 old
- She was about 31 at this point and wanted to try for a girl... so they had 3 more miscarriages... and now she is pregnant with her 2nd child who is due in December and so far is doing great! -
She never gave up and always held her head high knowing she would get what they wanted one way or another! - Now Kaleus and baby #2 have lots of little brothers and sisters in heaven watching over them and our family
-
"An angel opened the book of life to record my baby's birth, then the closed the book and softly whispered...too beautiful for earth."
