Hello everyone,
I am 26 and DH is 26 as well. i just went to my ob on Monday because I started having some light bleeding and we found out our baby's heart stopped beating and it stopped growing at 9weeks 4days (I should have been 12weeks). My husband and I were so crushed. I miscarried the baby naturally on Tuesday 3/29. I also had a blighted ovum in November at 6 1/2 weeks. We have no living children. I wasn't active on this board but I was active on the TTGP board (since July) and the October '16 board. I've been lurking on this board since Monday and it's really helped me to know I'm not alone. I am so sorry we all have to be here.
Re: I'm here again
My story is similar to yours, had some bleeding and went to my OB when I should of been 12 weeks, baby measured 8 weeks and no heartbeat, it was devastating. I didn't MC naturally so I decided to go with the Cytotec.
Once again I am very sorry to see you on this board, and if you ever need anything don't hesitate to reach out for help.

After I've had my miscarriages people asked me why I'm so open and my personal opinion is; I feel like it's treated like mental health, you are embarrassed about it and often feel like it's your own fault and your all alone. I hated that after my first I felt that way, when I did start opening up it was such a breathe of fresh air to hear other women's stories, so I now feel that if I'm open about it maybe I can help another woman feel not so alone...
@Cubslove12 I feel so similar about being open. There is no shame here. If you found out about something that had a 20% chance of not working out, would you necessarily hesitate to share the news until your odds of success increased? For a lot of things, I really don't think so. I have started opening up a bit more as I feel comfortable.
