Miscarriage/Pregnancy Loss

Miscarriage at 18.5 weeks.

I just need to vent. It's been 2 weeks since I delivered my sweet angel. I thought I was starting to feel better but today has been absolutely awful. All day I've been fighting the urge of tears. I'm starting to get angry. I feel like this was a horrible joke, I was finally at terms me and my husband couldn't conceive and that my daughter was our miracle.
Sorry this post isn't really anything but I needed a place to vent. I feel like I'm on the verge of a breakdown.

  • I am so sorry that you are going through this. I lost my angel a little over a month ago. This is by far the worst thing I've ever had to go through. Vent all you need. Prayers for you and your family.

  • I'm so sorry. 18.5 weeks is a very late miscarriage - so heartbreaking, especially if you had trouble conceiving. With my first loss At 8 weeks I struggled for months - be kind to yourself. You've had a very traumatic loss.

  • Thank you all.
    It almost seems surreal to me. I was finally accepting that we couldn't have anymore but magically I conceived my son, I had ultrasounds and everything looked healthy and great.
    While giving birth the placenta ended up breaking apart so I needed a d&c. While walking to the stretcher I ended up hemorrhaging so bad they had to call code blue to bring me back. It was all such a traumatic experience.
    My doctor was amazing through it all, he's convinced I can have a successful pregnancy but after everything that happened I'm sure I don't want to go through that again.
  • I am very sorry you had to endure this. Whatever you feel day to day is completely normal. I think it is such a sad, angry, confusing time.

  • I'm so sorry for your loss. It's such a difficult thing to go through. I hope you and your husband are finding ways to cope and heal. Anger is completely understandable. You're in my prayers, and I'll be thinking of you. <3
  • I am so, so sorry for your loss. Vent away!!! That is what this board is here for!  I had two miscarriages -- none of which were as late as 18.5 weeks -- and I was an emotional wreck for a long time. I, too, felt like I was having a total breakdown and literally losing my mind.  I saw a therapist, which didn't actually make me feel happier overall, but it at least reassured me that all of my feelings were normal and that I wasn't going crazy, just grieving.  So therapy might be something to explore. But rest assured, everything you're feeling is 100% normal, and most of us on here have been through it to some degree.  Again, I'm so, so sorry you had to go through such a horrible experience!
