Miscarriage

I found out November 2nd that I was pregnant. This would have been my first pregnancy. I went to the ER last Thursday because I had some vaginal bleeding. Thankfully, the baby was okay. They gave me an ultrasound and we got to see the baby's heart beat and it was so amazing. Yesterday I just had this bad feeling and couldn't get the energy to do anything and was so so sad. I went to the ER at 10:35 in the morning and got one more ultrasound to see if the baby was okay. The ultrasound tech wouldn't let me see the ultrasound as it was happening. I asked if everything was okay and she told me she couldn't tell me anything. About an hour later the doctor came in and told me everything I didn't want to hear. I lost the baby. Is there anything I can do to make me feel better? I have tried what seems to be everything. I'm so scared and depressed. I'm trying to keep myself busy; cleaning the house, cooking, taking all the baby stuff to where I can't see it, etc. Any suggestions would be great.

Thank you both so so much. Every kind word and any bit of advice helps. It's been rough but we will get through this and try again down the road. Trying to stay as positive as possible during this time. Everything just seems to be happening too soon. I go in the morning for my D&C so let's hope for a fast recovery. I couldn't thank any of you enough for your words of support. <3

Don't rush the grieving process. Take your time. Reach out to lived ones when you need & be alone in quiet reflection when you need. Know that you will never forget, but this will pass, you will happy again one day. Stay strong & stay positive. Prayers for you. I've been there, too.

I was only 7 weeks along which makes it a little easier but I got so so attached to our little miracle. I've bought so many clothes and bottles which is fine because if I end up having another one, I could always use it. All I got was unisex stuff. The memory will forever be in the back of my mind. I'm 17 years old, it's around the holidays, and I wasn't expecting to ever miscarry. I will always think of myself as being a mother because that morning I just woke up not feeling right, something just told me the baby isn't right. My baby's journey started 7 weeks ago. I feel unbearable pain for him/her not having a life outside of the belly. Thank you both so much for your find support and loving words.

I'm sorry for your loss.  Love and support from friends and family will help.  But time is just as important, let yourself have time to process and recover from your loss.  Don't try to rush it.
