miscarriage stinks

So I had a miscarriage a month ago and this just *****!  I went to hospital last night to see my best friend's brand new baby.  I'm so happy for her, but my grieve is terrible.  I put on what I think passed for a happy face, but could hardly make it to my car before the tears started.  Wish I could just wake up tomorrow and it would be months down the road and I would feel better.  I hate having to wait on "time" to get over this.  Today I'm having a harder time keeping myself together.  No one at work knows I was even pregnant, and i just wonder how i'm going to make it through the next 10 hours.  I can't wait to go home.

I love your title because that is how I feel exactly.  So many people don't realize just how lucky they are to get pregnant so easily or never have a worry.  My due date is approaching and I can't help but think what should be really happening right now.  I am nervous to go back to school after being off all summer to start all over with people asking what happened or how I am.

So sorry for your losses.  No one should have to go through this!

No we haven't started ttc yet. My doctor told me to wait at least 3 months, and she wants me to take prenatal vitamins for at least 3 months. She even put me on birth control. I started taking it Aug 22 and stopped Aug 28 because it was making me really sick. And then on Aug 31 I started again, just 15 days after my last period (which was my first one since the miscarriage). I think its cause I was taking the active pills for almost a week and then stopped, but I'm not sure. Now I'm afraid I messed my body up even more.

I am sorry for your loss. There are no word to describe how you feel or that can take away the pain. I lost my baby in March and at first it wa hard and now I I have many more good days. I have faith and believe God will give me another chance. In the meantime i allow meyself to grieve when I want to and afterwards I watch a funny movie or go outside and enjoy the fact that I am alive and can try again. Stay positive and you will get through this and know you are strong enough to handle tomorrow.

I know what you mean, i miscarried a week ago tomorrow, and still going thru it. I still feel like i'm going to wake up and its all going to have been a dream. Not to mention the fact that i'm having really bad dreams as it is, i'm assuming related to the incidence.

Hi Girls, I am really sorry for your losses. I know how hard miscarriages can be. I have had a total of ten all together and I am also blessed to have a beautiful little girl who is 5.

Even with my healthy daughter I had bleeding in early pregnancy so each time I get pregnant and start bleeding I am filled with the Hope that this one will be ok.

All of my miscarriages have been a strain on me and my partner emotionally but you wll get through it. Time is a great healer and you just have to reassure yourself by knowing that it will eventually happen for you and be successful. The body is a very clever thing and it would not end the pregnancy if there was not something wrong with it.

Keep strong xx

I'm sorry for your loss also.   Are you ttc yet?  I don't think I'm ready for it.  We'll see.  I've had my first cycle so my doctor gave me the go.  I know for some women ttc helps them with their grief.  I hate how it seems there are pregnant women everywhere!   My stepsister (whom i'm not fond of).  announced her pregnancy 2 weeks after my mc.  She's 2 weeks behind what I should have been.  She actually had the audacity to say that she sure hopes she doesn't have a girl!  She hates pink and blah blah blah.  Thank goodness she didn't say this in front of me, and shame on the person who told me.  I'm usually not confrontational (I'm the peacemaker),  but if I hear something like that I don't think I can hold back.  Strange how grief can make you say things you wouldn't normally say.  She should just be happy she's having a healthy pregnancy so far (not that I'm wishing anything bad).  I know we'll make it through this, but wow is it hard.  Good luck to you.

I'm so sorry for your loss. I had a miscarriage 8 weeks ago now, and there are still days I don't think I can make it. No one knows about me either. Not even my family, and I have several extended family members that are pregnant. One cousin is just two weeks ahead in her pregnancy of what I should've been in mine. I know the day she has her baby is going to be really hard. Its really hard and it really ***** that anyone has to go through this.
