I was having some concerns with this pregnancy, so I went to see the ob Doc yesterday. Ultrasound showed no heartbeat at 12 weeks. I was hoping and praying overnight that my dates were somehow off, but Doc called today to confirm with HCG levels. I can't believe that i have to go thru this again. He wants to see my the end of next week to have another ultrasound and I am thinking to then schedule a d&c. I always thought a miscarriage would be easier to deal with once you already had children. (Our first miscarraige was before we had Brendan) BUt I can tell you now, it hurts just as bad. For being an unplanned pregnancy, I am having a hard time now just thinking about how much we had already been planning our lives around this new little one.
Thanks for lettng me use this as my sounding board. I am trying to hold it together for the boys, but its very hard on me.

I miscarried about a month ago, at about 11 weeks. I'm so sorry. I know what you mean about it not being any easier -- I had a "blighted ovum" which means I'd conceived, implanted and a placenta formed; but then no baby ever formed after that. Some say, and maybe it's a little true, that this knowledge makes it "easier". But like you, we were surprised by this pregnancy yet genuinely looking forward to greeting him/her in the fall.
I pray you will spontaneously complete the misccarriage without a D&C. And that God will comfort your heart at this time.

Theresa,
I'm so sorry. There's no way to compare sorrow to sorrow, but I lost my mother recently, and I know how utterly devastating loss can be.
Take good care of yourself and take the joy that you can in your beautiful babies.
You will be in my thoughts.

I'm so sorry.. I also miscarried my second pregnancy (have one dd) and yes, it hurts a lot even if you do have a child already. In some ways, it may hurt more...you know better what you missed out on. I will pray for you-- I know once I had my d&c, I did feel like it was officially over. In some ways, that was better...in other ways, worse. I have gone on to have a successful pregnancy...32 weeks now so don't lose all hope. I know right now you just have to grieve but eventually, you will feel more yourself and can decide whether you want to try again.
Best,
Jane
