First pregnancy... first loss

malloryhermann · May 2014

My husband and I have been trying to get pregnant for about a year now. We had a positive test April 11th. Everything seemed to be going well until our first ultrasound. No heart beat and it appeared that the baby had stopped growing at 6 weeks. I was told to come back in a week to confirm. Today marked the week. My mom offered to go with me. The baby had still not shown progress and there was not a heart beat. I have not bled or cramped yet but they said to expect it in the next week or so. They said we could start trying again in 4-8 weeks. I am so scared though.

This was our first pregnancy and first loss too. It's such a devastating experience. I'm really sorry you have to go through it. Please take care of yourself and use your support system. My friends and family were my lifesaver.

I'm sorry for your loss. This was our first pregnancy and first loss as well. It sucks.

Very sorry for your loss... also the same here.. first pregnancy and loss. It is awful, but I have found a lot of support on this page!

Very sorry for your loss as PP have said, surround yourself with those that bring you the most comfort and support and you'll find plenty more here on the board. I also relate to your grief, first pregnancy, first loss, as well. Just take it a day at a time and give yourself the time needed to mourn and grieve. Hugs to you.

I'm so sorry for your loss! I was in the same situation last week...first pregnancy, first loss. I miscarried 2 days after my ultrasound confirming no heartbeat and that the baby had stopped growing. It didn't make the miscarriage easier, but looking back, I'm at least glad I had the warning. If I had started to miscarry without already knowing it was about to happen, I think I would have been closer to losing it. My T&P are with you!!

Same as everyone here, our first pregnancy and first loss at 9 weeks. I had a D&C 2 1/2 weeks ago but it seems like 6 months ago! It sounds trite but it does get better with time. I don't think about it every day anymore, I know we can try again soon, and I believe we'll have our beloved baby someday. So sorry for your loss...

I'm sorry for your loss. This was also my first pregnancy and first loss. Take time for yourself to heal both physically and emotionally.

I'm sorry for your loss. I agree with the others that you should get support where you are most comfortable. Hopefully those here can also help with that. We also rejoiced with our first pregnancy (after a long period of trying) and then lost our precious little one on May 14 at 8w. I hadn't even had my first ultrasound as I was scheduled for it at 9 weeks. I'm sure it's equally shocking and heartbreaking to know that it's happened (as in your case) or to spontaneously bleed and lose the baby (my case).
I pray for your healing too.

I'm so sorry for your loss. My miscarriage experience was almost identical to yours. It totally sucks but I promise it gets better. T's and P's to you!

I understand completely my first pregnancy was also my first lost on April 13th 2014 @ 6 weeks.
