Miscarriage support

paige0704 · February 2017

Hi everyone i hate to bring up negative things during such a happy time for many but I just found out my baby at 12 weeks is no longer with us and have to have surgery in a few days I am having a really hard time dealing...is there a board/forum that anyone knows of for support ? I'm sorry again I just don't have anyone who has been through this to talk to.

I am so sorry to hear about your loss. There is a miscarriage and loss board on TB that may be able to help you through this. Prayers for you and your family.

There's a TTC After Loss Board here on The Bump, and also a Miscarriage/Pregnancy Loss Board. I've also experienced losses, and I am so, so sorry you're going through this. You might also want to research and see if there are any local support groups. I attended a loss support group at my local hospital after my first loss, and it was immensely helpful to me.

I am so sorry you're going through this. I miscarried in the fall and I remember feeling so completely alone because it didn't seem like anyone really "got it".

I have heard the loss board here is great, but I didn't know about it at the time.

(hugs) Take good care of yourself, and try to remember there is no wrong way to feel or get through this.

I'm so sorry you're going through this. It feels so isolating, as someone else has pointed out. Lots of T&P

I'm so very sorry for your loss. I know that TB has (or used to have) a great support group on their boards. Take good care of yourself.

I think the above suggestions are great...

I'm so sorry for your loss...I know how lost, confused and devastated you feel as I too had a loss last April. It's truly awful and not a club I'd ever wish anyone to have to join. Thoughts and prayers are with you...

I used the loss board and the ttcal board and they were both helpful for me. It was nice to have people to talk to that had experienced a similar loss.

I am am so sorry for your loss.

SuperKristy85 · February 2017

I am so sorry for your loss. I used the loss boards on here and I also googled blogs. I found comfort in reading the blogs. Best of luck!

I'm sorry for your loss. I second the recommendation for TTCAL, they are an amazing support group. (((Hugs)))

baileylove22 · February 2017

I am so sorry for your loss. I relied heavily on the loss boards for support during my losses. I used the babyandbump site so I am not familiar with the bump. They were invaluable during such a hard time. T&ps!

GracefulStar · February 2017

I used the miscarriage/loss board and it was really great at the time. I'm not sure how frequented it is but you might want to check it out or search archived posts, they might be helpful. Being surrounded by those who get it really helped. I'm so sorry you are going through this. Take care of yourself, as best you can.

cmar1006 · February 2017

So sorry for your loss. Hugs.

paige0704 · February 2017

Thank you all SOO much...it's just so nice to not feel like the only one in the world...and to hear such kind and warming words honestly helps me be strong little by little so thank you. I will definitely be checking out these other forums...I truly appreciate the time you all took out of your day to help me out. I wish nothing but healthy happy pregnancies and babies for you all!!!

DPandMB · February 2017

So sorry to hear of your loss. T &P

geminioftwo · February 2017

I'm so sorry for your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

hatrats · February 2017

I'm very sorry to hear this. I have nothing to add as far as boards to visit besides what others have mentioned. But many of us have been through similar circumstances, so please know you are not alone.

bmoonstar · February 2017

I'm so sorry for your loss. I had a loss in the fall and it was horrible. I don't have experience with the boards but don't be afraid to reach out to some close friends. It can be incredibly therapeutic just to share the feelings. Hugs.

ElleKH · February 2017

Oh, honey, I am so glad that you are reaching out!! That is a huge first step. Our first pregnancy ended in a loss and I completely isolated myself for a few months. During that time of grieving, I did some research and a lot of thinking and, at the end of it, I realized how important it is to talk about miscarriage. So many people don't talk about it, which is why I think many have no idea how often it happens and how brutal its effects can be. So good for you for getting to that point this early on!!

If you need someone to talk to, please feel free to PM me. I'm not on here all the time, but I do try to pop on every few days to check in, so if you send a message and I don't get back to you right away, that's why. I'm wishing you lots of love and support during this very difficult time. Take all the time you need to grieve and heal. And never lose hope. I pray that you will hold your rainbow baby someday.

wyomama0427 · February 2017

@ElleKH you are awesome. We are lucky to have you here. It's good to know that you are here if anyone needs you. Also I agree that miscarriage is a topic that is hard to talk about and doesn't get talked about much. My cousin had a loss shortly before I got pregnant and she didn't tell anyone, she didn't talk about it. It broke my heart. I just wanted to reach out so badly but she wasn't talking about it. She had her rainbow baby after a very scary and troubled pregnancy, but that gives me so much hope that those here experiencing loss will hold their rainbow babies as well.

ElleKH · February 2017

Awww, @daniellelynette, thank you for your kind words. I'm so glad that everything turned out well for your cousin in the end! Stories like hers always give others hope.

I'm so sorry for your loss

I am on the advisory board for a local DFW support group called M.E.N.D. which has chapters around the country. It's a very supportive group.

ShreyaR · February 2017

So sorry to hear that, thoughts and prayers to you and your family.

ashley2824 · February 2017

So sorry to hear about your loss. The hospital that I had my procedure done has a support group. I didn't utilize it bc I wanted to be by myself at the time but I still get occasional emails almost 2 years later. Your OB might be able to help with local support groups as well.

BostonBaby1 · February 2017

I'm so sorry for your loss. I too have lost pregnancies. I found it very helpful to start seeing a therapist who specializes in fertility/infertility and if you feel that the sadness isn't lifting (give yourself some time to grieve and mourn) I would highly recommend looking into it. That being said, there will likely be days where you just feel so heartbroken. It's okay to embrace it. I still get sad. Please give yourself time to heal physically and emotionally and be kind to yourself and your SO. (((Hugs)))
