miscarriage

edited March 2011 in Pregnant
I went to the doctor this last week on Tuesday for my normal 8 week check up. I went at 6 weeks and had an ultrasound and they seen the heart beat but found out at my 8 week appt that the baby died sometime in the 6th week after that first ultrasound. I was really devastated because this was the 3rd miscarriage for us in the last year and it felt so right this time like everything was going to be ok and I never felt like there was anything wrong. I had no idea. I had a D&C on Thursday. Everything went ok. They are testing the tissue for chromosome problems and doing a bunch of lab work on me. Not much I can do but hope it goes better next time. I just wanted to get my thoughts off my chest. This is the 3rd time like I said and I'm kinda feeling like the ppl I would normally talk to are kinda like they don't wanna hear about it like get over it we've already heard this story...if they really only understood what its really like...

  • My mom miscarried 3 times as well. She told my sister when she miscarried to remember that healthy fetuses don't pass for no reason. So try and keep positive and think of it like that. I also know if you are religious they say god won't give you what you can't handle so try and put a slight twist on your situation and try and always see a positive. I can't imagine how hard it is and I am truly sorry for your losses.
  • I'm Sorry for your loss. Miscareiages are tough and no one can ever say the right thing
  • Oh sweetie I am so sorry. I also had a mc last year and I'm pregnant now but I am so scared. You are such a strong person going through this 3 times, I have a friend who had 4 mc and now has 2 healthy babies. Don't lose hope your time will come. That's good they are doing the testing on you that will hopefully help for your next pregnancy. God bless you and take care.
  • Im so sorry for ur loss.. my prayers are with you I hope that everything goes okay for you ..
  • sorry for ur loss..my prayers r with u nd ur family
  • Thank you everyone. It's hard. I do try to keep a positive outlook and just trust that it happened because something wasn't right. I do already have a healthy beautiful almost 3 year old little girl and I am so thankful for that. I hope someday she can have a little brother or sister. We'll just have to keep trying. Is it normal to already feel like I want to try again right now?
  • I'm so sorry to hear your bad news. As for asking when/if its the right time/too soon; that's up to you. As long as you are healed physically & ready emotionally, its your choice. >:D<
  • I agree with the pp if you are emotionally ready then sure. I know my sister waited for test results because she didn't want to do it again if there was something she could do to not go through it again but everyone is different so its totally up to you (and your partner) good luck and best wishes!
