Intro: 23.5 week loss

Hi everyone,
My name is Carmen. On December 9, I went in for my second level 2 scan at MFM. Before the tech put the probe on my belly, I looked at her and said "I can't look at the screen, I know she is gone." I sat on the chair all alone as she offered her condolences. A doctor who I had never met before came in and told me the placenta was thickened and fluid levels were low. Both had looked great a week prior. He was able to contact my regular ob 45 minutes away, order testing, and promised he would help me search for a reason.
I delivered my sleeping angel, Abigail, 12 hours after being given cytotec. My body had already been gearing up for labor. I didn't get to hold her first. I was rushed to the OR so they could stop the bleeding and remove the rest of the placenta.
I am so deeply hurt. I somehow knew I would never get my take home baby girl. I have an empty purple room that is making me so angry.
I want to try again, but I had a MC prior to this loss. I'm so scared. I have delivered a healthy baby boy, but I feel like that will never happen again.
Thank you for reading, I have nowhere else to let it out.
