Hello to everyone in bellybelly land. These forums have been a big part of my life this year and a constant source of inspiration when I am feeling like nothing seems to be going according to plan. I thought it was time to join and offer up my story. I had a miscarriage at 10.5 weeks on 13/08/08 and today started bleeding, went for an ultrasound and was told that it was a failed pregnancy. So it is off for another curette next week- yuk! I am feeling sad and unhappy and starting to wonder if having a baby was ever meant to be. I would love to hear from others who have gone through a similar experience.
I'm so sorry for your losses . I have had two losses, but I've also had two beautiful boys so don't ever give up hope. I'm so sorry you have to go through this again. My thoughts and prayers are with you .
Hi,
I'm so very sorry for your losses. I too have had two losses but have four beautiful children. Take one day at a time and I really hope it happens for you soon.
Thanks everyone for your words of support and encouragement. Woke up this morning feeling really crappy and crampy. Still can't believe this is all happening. MA (husband) and I feel as though we keep hitting brick walls. and are both feeling really down. Have been reading about 'failed' pregnancies and they are known as a blighted ovam. I had never heard of them before and apparently there is only a 2% chance of having one!!!!! This adds to the frustration and sadness.
I know exactly how you feel, I have had 3 miscarriages, 2 were blighten ovums (natural conception) and 1 I had a heartbeat at 7 weeks, 4 days (IVF bubs) and stopped growing after that.
But please dont give up, I am currently 14 weeks pregnant from a natural conception and bubs is growing well.
Sometimes it takes us ladies a little more time and a lot more heartbreak, but when we get to hold our little bubs in our arms, we will appreciate how much they are miracles.
Hun I am so very sorry for the loss of your beautiful angel... give yourself and hubbie too time to greive, get angry, yell at the world, cry whatever you need to. I had an ectopic pregancy in 2006 - lost my right tube and almost my life BUT we went on to have Aiden .... so there is hope and I know that it sux when they that there is 2% of it happening (I was told ectopic's are a 4%) ....
I am feeling confused today. Yesterday went in for curette and was told I had had a miscarriage- an early one. When I went for my scan on Monday they told me it was a blighted ovum and there was no baby. Yesterday was told by my ob. that there was a baby at some stage but they just couldn't see it. I'm not sure what is going on? Feeling frustrated and very confused. Is a miscarriage a name they give to all pregnancies? Anyone had anything similar?
