Miscarriage at 12w3d

I am in the process of miscarrying my first baby at 12 weeks and 3 days. I'm doing my best to stay strong through the physical and emotional pain. If anyone has been through this, any words of support or advice during this difficult time is greatly appreciated. I'm heartbroken but grateful for the short time I was blessed with being a mamma.

I am so sorry for your loss.  I miscarried my first at 7 weeks. It was the most terrible time in my life.  The worst part was everyone telling me it was God's plan or for the best. I became pregnant again shortly after but found it extremely hard to get attached to my new pregnancy until my 20 week ultrasound.  I had my rainbow baby 3 years ago but still grieve for my first around the time I m isscarried and its due date. I am currently 6 weeks along with my third pregnancy and am apprehensive again. Hoping for the best.

Thank you for the kind words and sharing your stories through this heartbreaking process. I appreciate the strength of each and every one of you who have shared your loss with me. I have no words right now. My heart is broken but also so full of love with the support of friends, family, and the mommies on here who are sharing in my grief. This pregnancy has been difficult from day one. I started to bleed last Friday and an ultrasound I had on Monday confirmed my worst fears. I decided to miscarry naturally at home but will have to go back to the doctor to make sure my uterus is empty. My heart is so broken but I am grateful to have been blessed enough to be a mamma for 12 weeks. Thank you everyone!

I too have had two miscarriages.  8 weeks and 12 weeks. Both decided to start on christmas 1 year apart. I started taking aspirin for my third pregnancy and now I am 32 weeks pregnant. Support from my husband helped me get through. It wasnt meant to be.  Think of it now, you will have an angel watching over you in heaven. I had a d&c with my 12 week miscarriage and I am glad I did, it made it a faster process. If you choose not to have one, bubble baths helped my get through the physical pain. It will happen for you when god decides.

I am so sorry you are going through this. There are really no words that will make it any easier.  There is no way of predicting this.

I have had 3 miscarriages; 12 wks, 14 wks, & 8wks. I will tell you that two of them I had a D&C with even though I was actively miscarrying the second. The 1st time  we found out the baby was no longer viable via ultrasound. The 3rd I was given the option of a D&C. I thought since I was only 8 wks it wouldn't be so bad. I have never been so wrong. I wish I had the D&C done for the 3rd as well.

I truly empathize with you. Time will make it easier but the loss will be with you forever. I pray your next pregnancy goes well.

Am so sorry you are going through this.i have gone through this several times still born 27 weeks, miscarriage 7 weeks and February 19 weeks boy and girl. Am currently 21 weeks pregnant and I still cry over my babies. What I want you to know is that the fact that it happened now does not mean it will again. My case Was unfortunate.  Although Its Hard To Believe It Will Get Better For You. Just be at peace knowing there is a reason for every thing. My prayers are With you and though I don't know you I want you to know that God loves you and there is always hope where there seems to be none.

I have beent though this to many times and I am so sorry you are going through this. How do you know you are having a miscarriage? unfortunately there really is not much you can say or do beside try to remain calm. panicking and worrying is going to make things worse. God is with you and what is meant to be will orwill not happen. I had many miscarriages and then what seemed ir started out as a miscarriage, sent home and now i have two who were supposed to be miscarriages. so keep your head up and stay strong. Good luck and lots of prayers coming your way
