Waiting Sucks

in Miscarriage/Pregnancy Loss

Had a a miscarriage at 7 weeks about a week and a half ago. I couldn't get an ultrasound until after, but I'm fairly sure things stopped at 5 weeks or so.  I'm actually pretty fine. We'd barely found out when I started having problems so I never really let it sink in.

 I wish people would stop asking me how I am (we told a few close friends and family) because I feel like I'm not as sad as they think I should be. 

 The part that I'm having the most trouble with is waiting to see my doctor. My appointment is the 20th (was supposed to be my first check up, lucky me) and until then we won't know when/if we should try again etc.

     Im sorry for your loss. Im an impatient person and I hate waiting. My DR has me waiting at least one cycle before we start TTC again. I wouldnt TTC again until youve checked with your Dr.

    I'm very sorry for your loss and you're right the waiting is the absolute worst part.

    Also don't let anyone tell you how you should be feeling. Whatever you are feeling just go with it. Definitely enjoy those good days when you have them!!

    BethQB.  I completely understand.  I've told quite a few people about what happened -- I've found it's been a good thing to just process it and move forward this way.  But I too did not feel that sad about the loss and I've found that some people don't understand how I could not be devestated.  My post about a week ago on something similar to you is "Feeling Relieved : Please don't Judge".  

    Anyway.  Sounds like you know how to treat yourself in the unique way that you need to in order to move on.  Keep staying true to that and remember that all emotions seem to be part of the package (relief, guilt, sadness, grief, acceptance, denial)....it just varies for every women.

    Good luck with the waiting game and I hope you hear what you would like to from your doctor later this month.
