Hello ladies,
This is my first post here although I've been lurking for a few days. I am 33 yrs old and married 2 years. I found out in June I was pregnant with our first baby and we were thrilled. At 7w2d i had my first us and saw my baby with a nice hb of 138. At 11 weeks I started spotting and my Dr had me come in for an us which showed that my baby had stopped growing at 8w5d and had no HB. I was and still am devastated and heartbroken. I had to have a D&C last week and I still can't believe this happened.
Now I am here just waiting for my next 2 cycles to come and go so we can try again. I feel such a an awful mixture of emotions: sadness, guilt, shame, hopelessness, and worry. But worst of all I feel like I let the people I love down, especially my husband and my mom who were so excited with me for this baby. I know everyone says it is nothing i did, but i keep obsessing over everything i did, ate or drank around that 8 week mark. I keep thinking there has to be a reason this happened. My baby was alive and well the week before.
Anyway, I hope that I can be some support to you ladies here and that I can learn some things from all of you. Thanks for taking the time to read this.
