Q: Update On Going For An Emergency Ultrasound
asked by: Shanyan on July 13th, 2007

Well I found out wed that my baby died at 9wks. But my body was still holding on to it. My uterus was measuring for 17 wks, which is what I though that I was only because it was filled with blood. that is why I thought that I could feel the baby moving because the blood was swishing around.

So yesterday I had to have a D&C. I seemed alright after but then it hit me like a tone of bricks when I went to bed. I couldn't sleep and when I woke up this morning I sobbed because I realized that just two days ago I thought that I was almost half way through my pregnancy and today there is nothing. My uterus hasn't really gone down yet so it is hard to look at my tummy and think that there isn't any baby there anymore. I just hope that this eventually gets easier.

Anyways I just wanted to give you an update on my post from wed.

Thank you very much. I appreciate it. I find that it is easier to talk with people on here instead of my own family because they just never say the right things. They think that they are helping but really they aren't. Even my dh doesn't know what to say or do. I think that he feels really helpless.

I am hoping that I can use this forum as kind of a retreat. Just to let out my feelings without anyone telling me how I should feel.

So anyways thank you for such a quick response. I never thought that in a million years that this would happen to me.

i've read this a bunch of times and i still don't know what to say. i am so sorry for your loss. i can't imagine how hard it must be. i had a scare at 20 weeks and was afraid i was going to lose my baby. i wish there was something i could say to make it easier for you but i know once you've had time to grieve things will start to look better. all i can think of is that you need to be nice to yourself and take it easy for a while. it's a big emotional and physical adjustment to make and there is not much use in trying to make sense of it all because sometimes these things just happen. i really hope you feel better soon but don't rush things. give yourself time to adjust and don't feel guilty for taking time out if you need to. i think it's a smart idea to let it out and vent your feelings here. good luck.

I went through a miscariage, and it was horrible.. We decided to have the baby on New Years, and then 2 weeks later it had died.... I was only at 8 weeks ( and it died at 5 ). It was the worst experience of my life, i wont lie to you. But i promise it will start to get easier. Morn as much as you need to, its only natural. I would also maybe recommend thearpy..... So you can talk to someone about whats going on, and maybe they can help you along with the healing process.

If you ever want to talk, pm me. It took me along time, and i still get sad.. And i got pregnant when i was young to, and i had no one to talk to, and my boyfriend wasnt even there while i was going through it (which still hurts me to this day)... But it wasnt his fault. Anyways, im hear for you and so are a lot of other people on this forum.

I know it will be hard, but you will get through it.

So Sorry...
I am so sorry - I've had 2 blighted ovums and had to have D&C's...With the first one I hardly cried at all. I then ended up with migraine headaches, and finally realized it was because I needed to grieve.

Please know that there are those of us who know how you are feeling, and that we're here for you, whatever you need.
