Since There Are No New.. Posted: 10-13-03 13:06pm
Hey yall. I posted what happend to me on
the pregnancy posts a while ago. So im
going to post it on here for yall. On
saturday morning of last week (not 2 days
ago.) I was having horrible pain in my
lower abdomen and back. It was to the
point where I couldnt walk let alone
breathe. My boyfriend was sleeping and
heard me crying and asked me if I wanted
to go to the emergency room. I told him
no, that I would just try to go to sleep.
Well that following monday I went to the
doctors. I was expelling excecssive
masses of tissue. There was barely any
blood, mainly tissue. When I went to the
doctor, she told me that I had infact had
a miscarriage. She said that my body did
what it was supposed to d by expelling it.
I did not need a dnc because of that.
She said many womens bodies wil not expell
it early enough, therefore they need dncs.
My boyfriend came along with me to get
the ultrasound. He was a little upset,
but then he was a little relieved. There
were extreeme mixed emotions when we left
the ob/gyn. I had some blood work done to
determine my blood type. I am
rh-(negative) and had to get a shot . We
now dont even take the chance of me
getting pregnant. We use condoms
everytime and I told my gyn. That I
wanted to get on the patch. I told her
about my problems with the pill. I have
to call to make an appointment to get on
the patch. I am getting over the fact
that I had a miscarriage. She said that
smoking cigarettes probably caused my
miscarriage. It doesnt affect many
womens, but I guess it affected mine. I
hope you can, if you have been through
this, understand where im coming from.
The doc. Told me that besides the
miscarriage, everything else (i.E.My
fallopian tubes,ovaries and all other
internal organs) were perfect. (for
future references). Thanks for taking the
time to read this. It really means a lot
to me!
I am so sorry that you lost your baby. I
am here if you needd me.

I feel bad, but in a way I don't..Not
trying to sound mean. So babies come out
harmed because of smoking, and then you
weren't just hurting yourself but an
innocent child. I do still say sorry and
my sympathy is with you, but maybe it was
for the better...Stay sweet!!

Thank you to everyone who replied. Now
that I know what smoking can do to a
pregnancy, I am lowering down and soon
quitting. I am mno longer going to have
unprotected sex and am going to get on the
patch. I dont want this to happen again
until I am married or have been with my
boyfriend for about 3 years. Once again I
thank you all for your sympathy or empathy
if you have gone through this.
