Goodbye & Goodluck

sunsweet18 · October 2014

We went for the 10 week ultrasound yesterday and found the baby at 8.5 weeks with no heartbeat. Seems like i am going through a missed miscarriage without any symptoms. I am waiting for a call from my OB to schedule another ultrasound and a D&C.

This is my first pregnancy and so sad it has to end this way. Would love to hear your personal experiences about how long to wait before trying or other things to know.

I'm really sorry for your loss.

You'll definitely want to talk to your doc about how long to wait. My first loss was earlier than yours, but I did still have a d&c. She told me to wait one cycle. We got pg on cycle 3, but I unfortunately lost that baby as well. We waited four between my last loss and this pregnancy.

I'll be thinking of you.

I'm so sorry for your loss. It's devastating. Take time to grieve. After our loss at 8 weeks in March I just couldn't try again. We waited 4 months and got pregnant in July that was a chemical and ended in August but we are pregnant again and everything is going well so far. I was so depressed after the first one and even saw a therapist. Take care of yourself!

I'm so sorry for your loss. Every Dr is different on how long you need to wait, so you need to discuss this with your Dr. It also depends on how long it takes your body to get back to normal. My first d&c after a 14week MMC I didn't even have a period for 4 months. My last 2 at 10 1/2 weeks and 8 1/2 my body didn't really skip much of a beat and I ovulated within a couple of weeks and I got to try the next month.

I am so sorry. That happened to me with my first pregnancy too. Try again when you feel read; it took me awhile. Don't be ashamed to grieve. My heart goes out to you and your family.

I'm so sorry for your loss. I had a missed miscarriage in January, and my fiancé and I really had to lean on each other to get through that. If you're up for it, doing something special to commemorate the baby can help with grief- we planted a tree. And please remember that seeking counseling is a very brave and very kind thing to do for yourself in times like these.

I'm so sorry for your loss. I also had a mmc with no symptoms at 10 weeks earlier this year with my first pregnany. It was very sad and a tough time. After the D&C, I got a small pendant to wear everyday to remember our angel. I still wear it and it comforts me. Regarding trying again, our doc said to wait 2 periods and then try again if we wanted. We did and here I am. I'll be thinking about you.

I am so sorry for your loss. It happens far to often. But keep hope, lots of success stories on this board alone!

I'm so sorry. You might want to check out the mc/loss board. They have really great advice and many ladies are going through the same situation as you. Take care of yourself and listen to your dr. It's normal to want to try again right away but many doctors advise against this. Most will tell you to wait one to three cycles. The norm seems to be two. ((Hugs)) I'm so sorry for your loss.

kate6214 · October 2014

I'm so sorry for your loss. My experience was very similar to @littlecookie. No signs of miscarriage at all. Definitely talk to your doctor and make sure that you are emotionally ready to be pregnant again.

samiamagirl · October 2014

So very sorry for your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

tradster2007 · October 2014

I am so sorry for your loss. I found tremendous support on the Pregnancy Loss board here on the bump immediately after my first loss. It will take time to heal emotionally and physically, so your doctor can guide you best on when to try again. Please let your friends and family take care of you and help you through this. Thoughts and prayers go with you.

I'm so very sorry for your loss. You'll definitely want to talk to your doctor and have follow-up ultrasounds. I lost 3 very early this year and I know how it feels to want to try again soon. The best thing I did was take 2 months off and now this pregnancy is going well at 11.5 weeks. Your body and mind will need time to heal so take good care of yourself.
