    My silent angel...

    This morning I was the most excited I have ever been in my life. I was 8 weeks and 1 day pregnant and more than ready to see my little bundle's heart beating away at my first obstetrician appointment.

    My husband and I arrived and had a chat to the obstetrician then I jumped up on the table ready for the ultrasound. The first thing he noticed was that I had a retroverted uterus, but that it wasn't a problem. Then he found a nice looking pregnancy sac. But that's when the best day of my life turned into my worst. He couldn't find my baby.

    I was then sent downstairs to the high-tech ultrasound machines. After the longest wait of my life I was scanned, only to have it confirmed that there was no baby. Apparently I have had either a silent miscarriage or a blighted ovum, but I hate the sound of both. They both essentially mean that my baby has died...

    I am totally devastated and haven't been able to stop crying since the ultrasound. How can my baby be gone when I loved it so much already and I still have such strong pregnancy symptoms?!

    I'm booked in for Sat morning to have a curette because my body hasn't realised that the baby is gone yet and I haven't miscarried yet. I'm really scared about having it done, but my obstetrician has assured me that he hasn't had any complications or subsequent infections after any of his procedures.

    I just want my baby back She was our wedding night angel.

    I'm so sorry to hear about your loss Krystie, i really wish our excitement and love for our unborn babies were enough to help them survive, but sometimes its just not meant to be.

    im not sure what else i can say, you will feel better in time, just let yourself cry and grieve for as long as you need to, your little angel will always be with you

    Krystie - I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. I had d&c after both of my m/c, I was quite scared the first time but it was fine.

    You will cry alot and you will experience many different emotions - it will take time. The heartache will always be there and you will always hold a very special place in your heart for this bub but you do learn to cope better with time, just take it day at a time.

    I planted trees in my garden for my angel bubs.

    The belly belly 'community' is very supportive - you've come to the right place.

    Very heartbreaking! I still tried to have hope with every blood test, but there isn't any. I just hope that as the days go by that it becomes a little easier to deal with. I'm so distrought and I don't know what to do, I feel so lost!
