I need comfort ♡

I am 10 weeks and I just found out that the baby's heart has stopped beating.  I need other mother's support now.  I have done nothing but cry all day.  Everyone keeps saying they are sorry and calling me,  but i just want to crawl in a hole and disappear right now.  I saw the baby today and it had legs and arms but worst fear came into play,  no heartbeat.  Please any words to help me get through this time would be greatly appreciated ♡

I lost my son at 16wks. Same thing. Heart just, stopped. I was induced a week later with cytotec (in september). I brought him home and buried him under a tree. We tried after 1 cycle but it took 3  and i am now almost 6wks along. But just last week, my fiance took my ring back and told me he's splitting with me for his ex. I'm completely heartbroken at the thought of raising this baby alone because he/she was a planned decision! :(
I still cry for my little boy, just let your mind do what it needs to. You have every right to be sad :(

Oh, dear, so sorry to hear that. Happened to me last time, mmc right after New Year. That's why I'm not announcing my pregnancy yet even though I'm 18 weeks already. Take it one day at a time and you will eventually get it. Your little one will be in heaven blessing her siblings... All of my kids knew that they have a sister in heaven. We think of her often when we say our prayers.

My OB did tell me personally not to do the D&C because it can take longer for you to conceive again afterwards. I took cytotec, but had a reaction because I have a sensitive system. I had also given up on trying again, then it just happened. Be prepared for hcg to stay in your blood for at least a month.

I am truly sorry for your loss. I too was exactly 10 weeks when I suffered a missed miscarriage in 2013. I had had 3 previous ultrasounds with strong heartbeats and baby growing great, then went for routine ultrasound and bam! No heartbeat. I had to stay pregnant for over a week which was terrible, then get induced. Then had a reaction to the induction meds. I was broken.. I never named that Angel... I took time to myself. During that time everyone was pregnant around me or having babies. I couldn't go around them for months or hold babies for a while. I didn't owe anyone a why either!  I found out 7 months later I was pregnant again with conception on what would have been my due date for the Angel baby. I still cry. I'm due any day now with a son and have already requested privacy when he's born to have time to myself and reflect on what could have been. If you want to talk, I'm here and will be praying for you. It's still hard to talk about, but it makes me feel a little better when I remember those precious memories I got to share up until 9/26...Hugs and Blessings!

Im very sorry for your loss. From personal experience, allow yourself to grieve. If you need more support, there are some very helpful boards for loss out there. As far as the decision as to what you should do. I will say this: in going naturally, i found some comfort in it being "natural" and just the way life works (to over simplify it) but also a bit more painful emotionally because every trip to the bathroom was a reminder. The D&C was fast and the bleeding stopped sooner and allowed my cycle to return sooner which provided me some hope. Taking chemical/medications to induce just made me ill so i not only felt miserable emotionally but physically as well. My heart goes out to you in your time of sorrow. May you find peace and hope.

I'm so sorry for your loss. All of my losses were early (9w or earlier) and I know how emotional it was for me...gentle hugs sent your way.

No intervention was ever needed for my losses, so I don't have any advice...whatever you decide, I hope your healing (physical and emotional both) is swift.

I'm so very sorry. I lost a baby at 13 weeks and my body would not pass it naturally. I was put to sleep and had a D&C done. Just had some cramping and light bleeding after. I'm not familiar with any of the other procedures though.

Does anyone know which way is the best way to remove the baby.  My Dr gave me 4 options and I don't know which one to choose because what if they are wrong. I'm so confused and hurting,  I don't want to believe this is really happening
