in Miscarriage/Pregnancy Loss

Hi ladies,

So this past Friday (about 5.5 weeks) I had my first appt with the nurse, and I noticed brown spotting 2 hours before, and when I went for a urine test the spotting was bright red. They ordered an u/s from the on-call OB and he couldn't see anything, but my cervix was still closed. I put myself on bed rest for the weekend because I was spotting whenever I got up, and then I had the first big clot yesterday evening, and then the largest I've ever seen around 9pm which started a regular flow. 

So, obviously I'm sure I lost the baby yesterday. I had my second blood draw today (the first was Friday, ordered by the on-call) and I'm hoping for a low number so we can get back to TTC (and to ensure it's not ectopic). 2 years is a long time to finally get a BFP & to end up like this, and I'm having a really hard time finding a bright side...

    It breaks my heart every time someone new comes on here...especially fellow former November ladies:( I'm really sorry. Today is 1 week since we found out I was having a MC and I'm still having a hard time holding back random bouts of crying throughout the day. There is no bright side (sorry to be a downer)- it sucks that this has to happen to so many of us. The only thing i keep thinking to get myself through is that we will make it, it will make us stronger and we will try again.

    Try to stay strong but don't hold back what you're feeling. Crying it out is necessary :(

    Hey Spruce :) I guess the one bright side is that I get to spend some more time with you! You were definitely one of my favorites Wink

    Thanks :) It's really amazing how everyone on here supports each other although we are "strangers" I would go insane without TB.

    So sorry for your loss.  This board is great source of comfort, at least for me it is.  It helps talking and asking questions to people who really know what you're going through.

    So sorry for your loss and that you have to go through this after TTC for so long. FX that your numbers go down quickly. Everyday gets a little bit better. Take time to grieve and cherish the moments that you feel okay or notice something positive. Hope you can find comfort and support here.

    I agree with the above post. I feel like everyday things get a little better (but I know that unfortunately everyone doesn't). Just try to take it a day at a time, even hour by hour. You'll find strength in yourself that you never knew you had. So sorry for your loss.
