  • I've been there I lost 2 before my first daughter was born. One miscarriage and one ectopic. I can only tell u what worked for me. I made it a point to wake up every morning and be thankful for just one more day of this happiness. I guess my point is make sure to enjoy everyday. Worry can rob you of so much. I was told I would never carry a child to term well I'm 20 wks pregnant with my 3rd. So while o cannot tell you how to cope I hope I have given you some kind of encouragement
  • You have thank you so much its good to know that ppl know how im feeling its getting better every week and my ultrasound made me feel good too I'm having a boy..thank you
  • I had a miscarriage last june. Got pregnant 2 months after. I was worried the whole time even after I had ultrasounds and heard heartbeats. Im now 36 wks pregnant and have barely started to enjoy my pregnancy. I still feel sad about my loss but I look at it as God telling me that I wasn't ready at that time to be a mother.
  • I have been there myself. Its very hard & everyone handles thing different. I had my 3 boys just fine & I wanted to keep trying till I had my girl. It took forever to get pregnant, like 3 years then I ended up having 4 miscarriages. I don't really talk about them cause it hurts so bad but I do tell myself that maybe something was wrong so God took them to be with him. I believe everything happens for a reason & God only gives us what we can handle. (I'm not a church goer at all, sorry if I sound like one) I finally gave up & was convinced that it was not ment to be. Now I have a very health 19 month old beautiful baby girl & I'm 27 weeks with my second girl. I know its very hard but you have to move on other wise your going to miss out on some really good things. I'm very sorry to all the girls that have had to experience a miscarriage.
  • Im not a church goer myself. I didn't really talk much about my miscarriage. It took us over a year to get pregnant so I took it very hard. I shut myself off from a lot of people. Even my husband. Depression finally took the best of me and I wound up hospitalized for a week. I still cry about my loss from time to time but im grateful for my daughter on the way in a few weeks
  • i have the same problem. i had a misscarriage in 09 (blighted ovum) and it was really rough. and now im 14 weeks. already heard the babies heartbeat which last time it didnt have one. and im still kinda worried about it. everyone else is talking about feeling flutters and i dont feel them yet. so it worries me too. but i know everyones pregnancy is different and i just keep that in mind as my baby grows.
  • Yeah its really hard I've heard my babys a few times and everytime I'm surprised I'm almost5 months ppl don't eve talk about how hard pregnancy is round ligament pain and things like that its a difficult emotional experience for me I just pray that my baby will be ok

  • I had a miscarriage between my first and second. I'm pregnant with my third. my child after my miscarriage I consider my mircle baby. I was depressed, lonely and over all thought it was something I did wrong. So my advice cherish each day and be happy that u were given another chance to be a mom. My middle child will always hold a very special part in my life. In some way I think he saved me from the misery that I was going through after my miscarriage. Now he is a wonderful little boy that is very much a mamas boy. I can't blame him though! :) so stay strong and u will have ur moments of depression, gulit and over all pain. It will happen even 3 years later. I still happen and think what if..
