TTC After a Loss

sad long intro.

On Oct 15 my DH and I found out we would be expecting our first child. We were so overjoyed and happy. I've had a whole in my heart since my dad passed away 13 years ago on Christmas morning, that our positive pregnancy test filled that whole immediately. Not knowing that my period was irregular when went in for what we thought would be our 7/8 week U/S, because the last time I had a period was September 5th. We went in for a U/S and they only found an empty sac. Which we were saddened by this news. They told us to come back in a week and they'll do another U/S and sure enough there was our little baby, with its tiny flicker of a heart beat and at that moment my heart felt so big, so happy, so content. We were going to be parents! On November 17th l, I started to bleed, I was told this was normal, almost every lady bleeds a little during pregnancy. I was never told how much bleeding would be normal bleeding. If it fills a pad? All my questions began with, well should I be passing large golf ball sized clumps? I couldn't get ahold of my OB so I went to the ER on Saturday the 22nd. They found a hematoma, which was scary but they did blood work and an U/S and told me to get some rest and that our baby was fine. Still bleeding I saw my OB on Wednesday before thanksgiving and had another U/S and there was are little gummy bear with a strong heart beat and still alive. We were relived.The doctor said its smooth sailing and we would be fine but that didn't last for long. We told our family because we thought we were in the clear and on Saturday night, the 29th at midnight I had terrible abdominal pain, like something was trying to get out of me and it sent me into shock. we got to the ER and at 3am on November 30th, the ER doctor said those dreaded words, there's no heartbeat and at that moment my world crashed. Are we ready yet to try again, no but we're hopeful that we'll have a living baby one day. Our angel baby was due July 12th and she will for ever be in our hearts.
Tomorrow I go in for my first after MC appointment and I guess I don't know what to look forward to.
To be honest, I'm not even sure if I'm suppose to be here.

  • I'm so very sorry for your losses (the loss of your father and your recent MC). What you went through with your MC sounds very traumatic. We get attached to that little thing inside of us so quickly and it hurts so much when it's gone. I hope you will find the support and comfort you need here. The ladies on this board have been wonderful and have helped me a great deal.

Because one way or another, we all need each other. Nothing's going to turn out the way you thought it would. Friends and lovers, don't you duck and cover because everything comes out the way it should in the end." -Glen Phillips, "Duck and Cover"

  • I'm very sorry for your loss. I hate that your OB told you it would be smooth sailing, and frankly after that comment I'd really consider finding a new doctor. ((hugs)) and like some others have said, be kind to yourself. It's all still very fresh, and the grieving and healing process is different for everyone. There's not right or wrong way to feel at any moment.


    My DH and I are in the processing of moving back home and it will be to a different state, so I'll have to find a new one anyways. I really liked my OB but I'm guessing she just didn't listen enough to my complaints.

    Thanks for all the well wishes. Y'all are so great. I wish people in the real world were as kind as you. My boss now is pretty shitty. Saying I need to come back to work asap. My last day is the 12th there, so I only have a few more days.

    @cherish1986, how are you feeling this morning? 

    I'm feeling okay. I have my OB appointment today and they're going to do another u/s and pelvic exam. So fx that are baby passed naturally and we don't need a D&C.
    Don't really know the options she's going to give to us, seeing that I have been on the pill for over 5 years and we're anti-pill.
