Guest guest Posted May 8, 2001 Report Share Posted May 8, 2001 I cannot believe that I felt bad about dumping bad news on such a happy group. Who better to help me through my second loss than many of you who helped me through my first! I cannot believe what we are going through, it seems like a very bad dream. I had made it to what I believed was 11 weeks this time, in a uterine pg, after seeing such a strong heartbeat 3 weeks ago, and was just starting to feel like I was actually going to have a baby to hold and love here, and like a ton of bricks, the baby died at 8w5d, and I had no signs at all! The EP was just as much as a shock, and now (although I made it through the EP, and I am sure I will eventually make it through the m/c) it just feels like that black hole again. But this time, although I have gotten passed the fear of another EP hurdle, this is not as cut and dry. We have no reasons for why this happened, and of course how can I do anything but believe that its only going to happen again? The dr will send some tissue to pathology, to rule out any genetic defect or disease, but I know it might not come back with answers. So, the wait begins again... the wait to finally feel like me again, to finally have the hope back, the optimistic outlook, which right now does not exist. Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers. As said, D & C (believe me, the word feels just as dirty as ECTOPIC) is scheduled for 2pm eastern. I'll be posting as soon as I can.

Guest guest Posted May 8, 2001 Report Share Posted May 8, 2001 Jen, I'm so very sorry sweetie. As I read your post I can feel the pain you are suffering. I know this because I have been exactly where you are right now. I suffered a m/c after the ep and nothing can prepare you for one loss after another. I remember sitting in the dr's office and him saying "I'm so sorry ..." That's all I heard, after that came screams of total, unbelievable pain. Like you my baby's heart just stopped beating. My dr also told me that they would send the tissue to be examined, but there was never any explanation for what happened. All I knew was I was in pain again. I remember laying in the hallway of the hospital waiting to be taken in for my D & C - how I cried. That continued for many days. I just want you to know that there is still hope. Tessa is living proof of that. I will be thinking of you tomorrow and I'm sure shedding many tears as I am now. I will light a candle tomorrow morning for your angel. If you need anything at all just let me know. Love & hugs, Jo-Ann Thank you! I cannot believe that I felt bad about dumping bad news on such a happy group.

Guest guest Posted May 9, 2001 Report Share Posted May 9, 2001 Jen, I just wanted to tell you how sorry I am for you. I too like you lost my second baby to a miscarriage. I felt all the same things you did (happy to have a uterine pg, thinking everything was fine and then devastation) But stay strong. My sweetheart was conceived 2 months after my miscarriage. My doctor told me after my miscarriage that at least we know that I can achieve a uterine pg. I know that doesn't help with the mourning of your sweet angel but I hope I gave you some hope for the future that you will have a baby here on earth with you soon. Take care, Dawn (almost 8 months) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted May 10, 2001 Report Share Posted May 10, 2001 Jen, I feel for you!! What a terrible thing to happen. Like Jo-Ann and yourself, I lost a baby at 11 weeks too. I hadn't been to the dr. yet so I don't know if there was ever a heartbeat, I just started bleeding, but not bad and the cramping was almost non-existant. I couldn't believe that I was actually loosing the baby. By the time that I had an ultrasound I had already lost the baby. They sent the tissue in but I never did get a result except that it was fetal tissue. Take care of yourself. I know what it feels like at the point you are at, and you are right, it will get better. Just give yourself some time, and talk about it all you want, that is part of the healing process.
