Miscarriage Now TTC

knhedrick · October 2015

I had a miscarriage of twins about 12 weeks ago. I had no idea I was pregnant. No idea what so ever. I was having my period like norma, we'll I would call them normal then one day I had started my period and there was something odd, different, very different that I had never seen before. It was almost like I knew right then and there what it was. My body knew. I did not. So I had finished wiping and knew I was going to call the doctor because something wasn't right, so I went to bed. I woke up the next morning to call my doctor and right before I did I went to use the bathroom and change my tampon and there was something so similar to what I had saw the night before. I was in a panic. I had no idea what it was.
When I called my doctor, she wanted to see me that same day. So I go into the doctor, she checks me and sits down and talks with me, asks me questions, and the next thing I hear her say is, you've had a miscarriage. What? Mind you I'm only 19, but I have my head on my shoulders better then you typical 19 year old. Accidents happen, but what was different with this is that it upset me. It upset me bad. I didn't know I was pregnant. I had no signs, nothing. And my doctor guessed I was 8-10 weeks. Like wow! And with twins. Me and my boyfriend were devastated. I wish I would've knew. I do. I had to go to the hospital. I did my ultrasound. Luckily, I didn't have to have a d&c. I had passed everything at home.
Since my miscarriage, no one really talks about it. My family doesn't really know or they don't bring it up, but me and my boyfriend we talk about it all the time. All the time. We are parents to two little angels up above. Yet now we realize we want a baby. We want a family, we are doing good as a couple and we realize that we do want one of our own. My boyfriend has a son already, but he doesn't get to see him because of where his mother lives and how she acts. I know I want a baby. I am TTC! And I know this because all my friends are getting pregnant. All I see anymore are babies. I just wish it wasn't so hard. I don't really know much about TTC because I am new to all this. I'm new to bump and everyone here. Anyone have advice?

Welcome. I'm sorry for your loss.

I know it's hard when it seems like everyone has babies, but trust me - you're young. You have so much time! If you weren't trying to get pregnant before, if I were you I would remind myself of why.

It's ok to want a family and to want to have babies. But think about the position you're in right now. Have you both finished school? Are you both working? Do you have affordable health insurance? What's your housing situation? Are you renting? What's your financial situation? Do you have savings? How will you afford a baby? Will you stay home? If so, can you afford that? If not, can you afford day care?

I don't ask these questions to be mean. But trying to get pregnant is a very serious decision. It might feel very urgent to you based on your situation, but you have lots of time. I'd strongly suggest getting a reliable form of birth control (like an IUD) and making sure you're in the right physical, emotional, and financial position before even considering it.

Uh, how in the world would your doctor know that you had miscarried twins?

How do you know you were pregnant? I'm sorry, but there are some holes here you need to fill in first.

And this. Definitely this.

MamaBish · October 2015

I'm so very sorry for your loss. Loss is devastating and it can bring up feelings that you didn't even know you had.

I just want to caution you to wait before making major life decisions under such duress. My therapist told me this after my own loss and it was good advice. I initially said I never wanted to ttc again, I wanted to quit my job, etc, etc. I'm so glad I just went with the flow until I felt a bit more like myself again.

Whatever you decide to do, I wish you the very best of luck. Hugs!

knhedrick · October 2015

Okay, so I didn't post this to be put down. I know what I am getting myself into. And as far as how did my doctor j now I want pregnant, there was tests that was down and showed levels. Like I said before, I know I am young, but I also know where I stand in my financial situations and work situations. I do not have to include my whole life story. I am going through pain and do not need to put down. I know you don't mean no harm, but being told or asked if I am ready that shouldn't be a question. I never said I wasn't trying before my miscarriage. All my home test just showed negative and I wasn't showing any signs.

knhedrick · October 2015

QFP??

knhedrick · October 2015

I understand the the home test should have read it at 10 weeks, but I wasn't testing all the time. That's my fault. I quit testing at probably 5 weeks. I went to the hospital like I said and they did tests and ultrasound because I have a blood type of O negative. I ended up getting the Rh negative shot for future pregnancies.
I'm not jumping anyone's gun. I just typed quickly and I can read over it for edit.

Just because all of your friends are getting pregnant does not mean that you are ready to get pregnant. That sentence alone shows your age and your maturity! I am sorry that you found out that you were pregnant after a MC but maybe that should have an eye opener that you should be more careful while having sex. I know you will end up doing what you think is best but I would really sit down with your boyfriend and think about day care and child expenses period. Are you expecting to live of the state and have them take care of you? Can you afford formula if you cannot BF? How much do day cares cost in your area? Will your job give you any type of paid maturity leave? So many questions to ask other than just "well my friends are getting pregnant so I want to be pregnant too".

No one is putting you down. In your initial post, you described this as an accident and that now you know you want a baby. All we have to go on is what you write - which sounded like you were not TTC before.

I haven't been in your exact situation, but I have had a loss and I know that it can be extremely difficult. Again, we only have the information you provided. You said that you're 19, you and your bf are doing good, and your family doesn't want to talk about it. Are they not supportive of your decision to TTC? I stand by what I wrote before and agree with what @MamaBish said - a decision to TTC is not to be made lightly, and certainly not from a place of emotional upset.

To the highlighted. No, you absolutely have no clue what you're getting yourself into. I had this same conversation with another young lady not too long ago. Let me tell you a little story. I was married at 17. I had my first child at 18 and my next at 21. I then drug my innocent babies through a nasty divorce because my husband and I grew up a little and we were both VERY different people than we were when we got married at 17.

At 19 years old you are barely a glimmer of the woman you will eventually become. Even IF you are financially secure and have no worries in the world about how you are going to provide for this baby that you are trying to bring into this world there is SO much more to being a mom than just providing food, clothes and shelter. You make sacrifices you never imagined. I didn't raise my kids. I grew up WITH them. They were always cared for, but I was not emotionally or mentally prepared for all of the things that came with being a mom.

You deciding that YOU want a baby right now is quite possibly the most selfish thing ever. Your child deserves to have a mother who knows how to be a mother. Your child deserves to have a mom who knows who she is and has confidence in her decisions. Your child does NOT deserve to be brought into this world because you want a baby to play with or because all of your friends are having babies. If you want a toy to play with go buy a doll at Toys R us and dress that up.

I am not saying these things to be mean. I was in your shoes at one time in my life. My first baby was NOT an accident. I wanted a baby and I refused to listen to anyone who told me that having one was a bad idea. Please at least take into consideration what I am telling you.

Why'd they test you BECAUSE you have type O negative blood? Also, to the bolded, Is that how it works? I have a negative blood type and I am getting my shot in the third trimester, and I was understand the assumption that I just have to get one with every future pregnancy. I'm legitimately confused by this thread. Maybe take some time, re-think what you want to say, then re-tell your story.

Wut?

nlwz123 · October 2015

Also, why did your doctor think you had a miscarriage?

I'm thinking this is MUD because it makes zero sense.

KMorley3 · October 2015

I am soo confused with this post !

knhedrick · October 2015

I know what you all are saying, I do. But to be honest, I'm not taking this lighty. I am not at all. And I'm not at all saying I want a baby because my friends do. I have had friends for years have babies. I know when the right time comes around. I know what comes with being a mother. I do. I'm not saying that to be ignorant. I'm not stupid. I am not one of those young girls that goes out and parties all the time eother. Nothing against anyone who does. I used to. I used to be in the wrong crowd. From the replies. I'm just going to quit with bump for awhile. And for whoever thinks my babies who not be supported that's a low blow. You don't know me. And I understand that is also a reason to why some of you feel the need to go off. But like I said, I'm just going to delete and move on. I asked for advice and saying hello to bumo, not to get put down.

KMorley3 · October 2015

You got advice, nobody put you down.

I had my first at 19 and it was hard ! It seems like a red flag to me that you want to have kids with someone who doesn't get to see the child that they have already. The excuse for that seems like crap too in my opinion, but whatever.

Good luck with whatever you decide to do, but if you were my friend or family member I would tell you to wait a little while and really think about "what you are getting into".

knhedrick · October 2015

I tell you what, you people are really mature.

tripledaggerWed95976 · October 2015

OP, I'm sorry for ur loss but ur post doesn't make sense- there's no way to know u were carrying twins unless you had an ultrasound that showed twins BEFORE u miscarried. Since u said u didn't even know u were pregnant, there's no way you had a confirmed ultrasound showing twins. I think that is where most of the confusion came in. Asking for clarification isn't rude...it just seems like either u were given misinformation or maybe u misunderstood ur doctor-- (especially in regard to the twins thing). When things like this happen, especially at your young age it can be confusing... We're just trying to better understand ur post. ETA: doctors don't just "guess 10 weeks". That's not how it works... Doctors date pregnancies through ultrasounds. I'm totally not ganging up on u, I just hope u can realistically and objectively see why people are confused by your post.

addyplusone · October 2015

I really just can't today. Emotionally no. Absolutely no. But I feel like you really need to understand you are making the wrong decision. I had a miscarriage at 18. Abstained from sex again for 7 months because I was terrified and depressed that I had failed that I had no clue I was pregnant either. Had my daughter at 21. Then had another miscarraige last year. If you are just a troll I could really kick your ass today. If not please go to college, get a good job. I am now going to be 25 in a few days and am just now getting back in to school. Trust me, I wish I was already a nurse and could do better for my daughter. Because she deserves it.

Edit. Clarity

So, you didn't know you were pregnant until your MC, but you somehow tested negative at 5 weeks (how did you date this?) and 10 weeks. And had an ultrasound because you're O negative? You are making zero sense. People are telling you so. That's not immature or rude. It's trying to understand what you are trying to say.

I'm sorry for your loss. Ask your doctor about when you can start trying. How far along were you when you miscarried? Normally doctors want you to have your first cycle after your MC to start TTC again. Then once you get CD1 (your period) you can start charting just to get more information. Go to fertility friend and take the tutorials. That way you can TTC with purpose.

Your first 6 or so cycles could be very long and very weird. Your body is still healing and most likely has some hormonal flux going on post MC. Again, I'm so very sorry for your loss.

I'm sorry if you are offended by real, considerate advice. No one attacked you, hun. They simply gave you food for thought. You are in a very emotional place and its not the time to be making major life decisions. Its just not fair to you, your partner and any future children. You want us to tell you to go for it and let your heart be your compass. No, we can't do that because in your case its most likely not the right decision for you.

Your brain doesn't finish maturing until age 25. The impulse control portions of your brain are still quick to fire and your decision making processes are not that of an adult. In many ways you are a highly functioning child. That's not meant as an insult either. Its scientific, developmental fact. In addition to the emotional blow of a miscarriage you also have your biology working against you. Its not wise or mature to make this decision after all you've been through.

If you still want to TTC-- wait a year. You can save money and work through all the issues that have been thrust on you in a short period of time. One year of saving money and working out the practical aspects of having a baby. Its not a long time and it will fly by.

Agree ^^ wholeheartedly! No one was beating you up on here. Some of us just know from experience. You do you, but think about it before making any rash decisions. Bc it isn't just effecting you. But I am sorry for your loss. Mine from when I was 18 is especially effecting me today, before you even posted.. So I'm a bit of a b**** right now. But these ladies help me get through my days by either laughter or today just well wishes, so please don't go telling us we are all so mean for just giving you out true opinions.

BostonBaby1 · October 2015

******TW- losses mentioned and graphic detail*****

I could be wrong here but I was on a BMB with a woman who liked to stir the pot. She knows I lost twins. Hmmmmm... CMK?

OP- I'm very sorry for your loss. It's true that there is no way to know you were carrying twins without an u/s BEFORE your natural m/c to confirm. Betas vary tremendously. I'm sure you felt awful but it was very lucky that you didn't need a D&C. For me, it was terrible and painful. By fa the worst of my losses physically. I'm amazed you didn't go straight to the ER that night before. Or the morning when you woke up.

It's also AMAZING if you were pregnant with twins and didn't turn a home test at 5 weeks. Even at 10 weeks, you could have the hook effect but you'd likely see a faint line.

Please take it from another loss mama that it takes time to heal. More than just physical time but emotional. Please consider therapy before jumping into TTC again, especially because at 19, you have the luxury of taking all the time you need to heal.

@nlwz123 If one has a loss with a - blood type, Rhogam is administered immediately (as best as I know, I'm +.)

Kristin712 · October 2015

PPs have given great advice but I would like to add one thing: If you had a natural miscarriage and did not need a D&C because you passed everything, your ultrasound would not show that you had been pregnant or that you had been carrying twins. So I'm really confused as to how your doctor came to his conclusion: pregnant with twins, age of gestation, etc.

I had a natural miscarriage at 7 weeks and was told "Your body knew what it was doing and passed everything. Your uterus looks as though it had never been been pregnant."

BostonBaby1 · October 2015

^^ exactly. No way to know gestational age or singleton/twins.

knhedrick · October 2015

It was my gynecologist that said since it was two sacks it could've been twins. So I took it as it was. It is something that runs in my family very frequently. I'm sorry for the loss of information, I am new to this and it is very different for me. I want to thank everyone for there time for helping me through this hard time. Nothing can replace what I lost, but I know I am a mother to an angel or angels. Only God knows. As for going to the ER, my gynecologist did send me straight to the hospital after my visit with her. And just like @Kristin712 that's how my uterus look during my ultrasound. She herself even had questioned if I was pregnant. I had told her my doctor had sent me over because of her belief of me having a miscarriage. The radiologist doing the ultrasound then told me well you won't have to do a d&c because you have passed everything natural. Honestly I do not believe I was 8-10 weeks because when I had passed the sacks at home, it was not even developed to where I would've been able to tell straight on. Guessing for what she said 8-10 weeks was a guess about taking a test at 5 weeks. It could've been sooner. I'm not for sure.

I'm still confused. Maybe I'm missing something but if everything passed how did the gynaecologist know there were 2 sacs?

I don't understand either.... I think what happened is she now realizes that she completely misunderstood the 2 sacs thing and probably just doesn't want to say because of embarrassment or what-not.

letyourheartbeyourguide · October 2015

Maybe she means that the material she passed looked like two sacs? As in, two larger items that were passed? This is the only thing I can think of that would remotely make sense.

OP: If you were 8-10 weeks along, the embryo would be over an inch in size and clearly recognizable as such. Are you saying that you passed two items over an inch in size that were visibly an embryo?

knhedrick said:

This makes it sound like what you passed was much smaller/less conclusive than an 8-10 weeks clearly identifiable embryo. Do you mean that you passed a large clot? How large?

I ask because it is entirely possible to pass clots during your period that are NOT related to miscarriage.

I ask because it is entirely possible to pass clots during your period that are NOT related to miscarriage.

I completely get where you're coming from, but having been through this before… I can tell you that placenta can be about the same size as the fetus at that time period. And there is no telling how many pieces of placenta could come out. It would be very hard to tell especially not knowing when the miscarriage actually occurred.

I personally passed down them. I saw them and held them in my hand. As far as being 8-10 weeks, I believe I wasn't as far as my doctor said I was. Believe me I thought they were clots at first, but describing them to my doctor with her asking me questions she came to the conclusion what it was. My levels were high just like I had been pregnant. I had to go back to the hospital days later to check on my levels.

It was my gynecologist that said since it was two sacks it could've been twins. So I took it as it was. It is something that runs in my family very frequently. I'm sorry for the loss of information, I am new to this and it is very different for me. I want to thank everyone for there time for helping me through this hard time. Nothing can replace what I lost, but I know I am a mother to an angel or angels. Only God knows. As for going to the ER, my gynecologist did send me straight to the hospital after my visit with her. And just like @Kristin712 that's how my uterus look during my ultrasound. She herself even had questioned if I was pregnant. I had told her my doctor had sent me over because of her belief of me having a miscarriage. The radiologist doing the ultrasound then told me well you won't have to do a d&c because you have passed everything natural. Honestly I do not believe I was 8-10 weeks because when I had passed the sacks at home, it was not even developed to where I would've been able to tell straight on. Guessing for what she said 8-10 weeks was a guess about taking a test at 5 weeks. It could've been sooner. I'm not for sure.

I thought you had passed it BEFORE you went to your GYN? how would she know it was twins, I don't think she would just assume you were pregnant and give you a gestational age WITHOUT an ultrasound being done first, not trying to be mean maybe you had a chemical?? I have very heavy menstrual cycles, so i have seen clots you wouldn't believe. When i m/c'd at 5 weeks there was no ultrasound just a blood test that revealed my levels had went down from 15-0.

I had a miscarriage of twins about 12 weeks ago. I had no idea I was pregnant. No idea what so ever. I was having my period like normal, we'll I would call them normal then one day I had started my period and there was something odd, different, very different that I had never seen before.

this is also confusing as well??
