Miscarriage/Pregnancy Loss

Don't know what to think

Hey everyone. Last week I got a couple not so big&fat postives, and then a true BFP on Tuesday the 16th. I called my MW on Wednesday so she could fill a script for Zofran as I had debilitating HG with DD. Yesterday, I got a call that she wanted to see me sometime before my 10 week appointment for labs and history. They have a NP dedicated to walk ins between 1 and 3 pm on weekdays, and she said to go in whenever was convenient. I went in yesterday at 1, and they had me take a preliminary urine test. It was negative and I was pretty much shooed out by the NP. I sat in my car and tried to hold it together (DD was in the back), so I called my MW and asked her what was going on. She was livid the NP didn't proceed with the labs, so she sent me to a satellite lab for a draw. At 4:30pm yesterday I called the office and they said the results weren't in yet, but they would call if they came before they left, or first thing in the morning. Last night at 11pm I started bleeding.

I've been painfully bleeding all day. I am sad and scared and hurt. I don't know where to go from here. DH keeps saying, "we can try again," but he doesn't understand I wanted THIS baby. THIS baby meant the world to me. I pictured his/her whole life, and DD having a younger sibling to love on, she kissed my belly every morning and said, "baby". She did it today and I lost it. She is only 14 mos, she will forget soon, but its breaking my heart.

I keep thinking of all the tghings I may have done wrong. Too much  caffeine? The glass of wine with my questionable positive? Skipping breakfast? Not enough water? And then I think back to when I was pregnant with DD and how every night I fell asleep praying for her well being, and how I didn't do it this time. I let my guard down, and I feel like maybe its a punishment.

I don't know where to go from here. I feel like I will never wnat to get pregnant again. I am too scared. And too sad. I am sorry this like jibberish.

Re: Don't know what to think

  • I'm so sorry for your loss.

    I know its really hard right now.   I know its hard not to think the thoughts you are thinking right now.  I remember thinking all those same things (that maybe I should have evacuated the house when DH was painting the kitchen....maybe I should have gotten more sleep and been more relaxed, etc...).  These are almost inevitable after-thoughts.  But the cold sad truth is that (for lack of a better illustration) crack heads have babies every day.  Pregnant women who don't give a crap and chain smoke (a'hem...my neighbors) have a prolific amount of children.  Its undeniable true.  You did nothing wrong.  I'm really really sorry this happened to you.

    I'm also sorry that DH doesn't get it.  Maybe he never will understand the way you are grieving.  Mine didn't really get it, either.  But this board is wonderful and really helped me.  I hope you find it helpful too.   ((HUGS))

  • Oh, hon, you did nothing wrong. We're all here because of sheer dumb luck. We're part of the one in four or five that don't work out.

    I am so sorry for your loss.

    I also want to give that NP a piece of my mind.

    I also want to give that NP a piece of my mind.

    I forgot to mention that, too.  Stupid people.  I'm sorry you had to go through with that!!

    At least MW knows and will discipline accordingly.  I had a small victory like that over an US technician who came into a populated waiting room and relayed the doctor's opinion to me in front of a room full people.  The dr. wasn't so happy to hear about that.

  • I am so sorry for your loss. It is important to remember that you did not do anything that caused this to happen. I remember when I first found out I was having a miscarriage and I thought of all the things I may have done to cause it. When I went in to the doctor he told me that no matter what I would have done this was going to happen because there was something wrong from the begining. It helped me realize that the one tylenol I took and the cup of coffee I drank did not cause this. I hope you can find peace in time. Lots of thoughts and prayers.

  • I'm so sorry for your loss. {{{hugs}}}

  • I'm sorry. I'm going through the same thing and a lot of what you posted I feel I could have written myself.  I feel like I'm over analyzing everything I've done lately.  It's really hard not to.

  • It's a really hard thing to go through, please don't blame yourself.

    I also, at first, blamed myself; but truth is, there is nothing you could've done to change avoid it. Life is just cruel sometimes.

    Be gentle to yourself now, sending thoughts and Prayers your way.

  • I know how easy it is to blame yourself for this happening. I continue to wonder what I did to cause this to happen. But the truth is, we didn't do anything wrong no matter how much we want to put blame somewhere. You didn't cause this to happen. We prayed every night for a healthy baby. When I told my 9 yr old son that the baby was in heaven, he wondered if he didn't pray enough. or that the devil was listening when we prayed because we didn't pray with our thoughts. One thing that brings me comfort is something that my boss had told me. She said her mother had a miscarriage 2 months before she was pregnant with her. If she hadn't had a miscarriage, then she would not have been born. After she told me that, it gave me more hope. I know that everything happens for a reason, but we want to know what that reason is right now. I wish it worked like that, but it doesn't. I'm praying that you find comfort, peace, and healing. I pray that you can get through this and know that God does all things for "good" even though we can't see the good in this happening to us. Most of all, I pray that you don't give up hope. I'm so sorry you have to go through this. Some women like to give their babies names and that brings them comfort. My baby's name is Cabin Baby. What would u name yours?
