Miscarriage/Pregnancy Loss

New Here

Hi Ladies. 

I'm sure you're all lovely people, but I never wanted to have to come over here and post :( Sadly, I am.

I was about 8 weeks and a few days, started very light spotting on Saturday afternoon. Ended up in the ER last night with much heavier bleeding. U/S Tech found no heartbeat. I ended up at home last night, bleeding pretty bad, bad period type cramps.

I'm home today, wallowing in sadness. H took off work to be with me too, we're going to my doctor in an hour or so. I'm watching Harry Potter, since that's what I do when I'm sad. It usually seems to do the trick.

I'm just at a loss of what to do. I called my twin sister last night, she's also devastated. I can't even muster up the courage to call my parents. Luckily, it's just our families and a couple close friends who know, but I just can't call people and tell them the baby is gone. 

This was our first pregnancy.  

BFP #1 - Mango - 6/11/12, EDD 2/22/12 Natural MC 7/15/12
BFP #2 - Nacho - 10/14/12, EDD 6/20/13, MMC 8 weeks, D&C 11/16/12
All testing shows both H and I are perfectly normal. Baby Nacho had triploidy.

Re: New Here

  • I am so sorry for your loss. I am glad to hear that you have your DH, family, and friends in your life to support you. That is a wonderful gift.

    This board is so welcoming, it is a safe place to be.

    Good call on the Harry Potter. Edward Scissorhands is my "happy movie"  

    Sending you positive thoughts,

  • We watched Mystic Pizza & Never Been kissed last week the night we found out- I was drained & DH knew that I would pay more attention to a movie than I would to my phone & searching "stuff".   It helped calm me down for a while.

    I was on the Feb 2013 board too-  and also wish I wasn't here!!

    TTC since Feb 2012. Me: 39, DH: 37

    I'm so so sorry Ravenclaw. :(  It's sad to be here, but the support does help.

    We are so much alike, I also have a twin sister and she was the first one I called during this ordeal. Only DH, my sister and my mom knew about the pregnancy. She felt so bad for me but was also honest in the fact that she didn't know what to say. She hasn't been through it so it was new to her too, and since we are twins, we don't usually go through something that the other doesn't. It was hard, and still is hard on both of us.

    I hope that we can help make eachother feel as well as possible.  Hang in there.

    it's funny how similar we are!

    my sister was the same way... she even offered to fly down here (she's in NYC, I'm in Miami) just to be here.... she's just as sad as I am. Our first niece was born a couple months ago (brother's daughter) and I think that makes it even more sad, bc we see how awesome she is, and our baby was due right before her first birthday :(

    I just got back from my OB's office, and my doctor wasn't available, so I saw the other one in the practice. And he was kind of an ass. He's all "I know you'll be fine, and you'll come back soon, pregnant again, and you'll have a healthy baby." Um. No, no you don't know that. I appreciate the concern, but don't tell me stuff like that.

  • I am so sorry for your loss. It is okay if you can't tell people right away or if you feel okay maybe ask your sister to let them know.

    I am also a HP lover and watched some movies to help distract me. If you haven't checked out pottermore yet it is pretty fun and another good distraction.
