Recent miscarriage

I just dont know how to feel. We tried for a year and we were so happy to find out we were pregnant with our 2nd baby. But by week 2 of know I started spotting that turned into bleeding. I went to the ER and my HCG levels were raising good....not great...by good....but I went 2 and a half weeks basically being on my period. Finally this last sunday I had massive cramps where I couldnt move. I was supposed to be 7 weeks pregnant. I laid down and tried letting it pass til I asked my husband to take me to the ER. I had been giving myself pep talks for weeks to be prepared for the worst since I didnt believe in it being normal that I was bleeding. I wasnt bleeding hard until I got into the triage and I bled onto the chair. They took me back to do ultrasounds and as they were pressing for the external it just hurt......I stood up to take off my bottoms for them to do the internal but I just felt a rush of blood and something massive slide out. I started crying because at that point I knew. I went to the bathroom and there was a giant clot and so much blood that was just everywhere. It was like a horror film playing out in front of me. Just so much blood. As I sat on the toilet I just felt blood rushing out and clots falling out. I had no idea what to do. They didnt do the internal so they just sent me back out to the waiting room where I waited for over an hour for a room. I spent so much time in the bathroom because I was just bleeding and losing clots. I felt like it was a nightmare and was confused why no one was helping me. My poor husband had no idea how to help me either. It's been a couple of days and somehow it feels like it never happened but i also dont know if its because i dont want to believe it happened. But it's like i still feel the pain from it. I feel empty.

I’m so sorry 💕 I also miscarried around the same time as you and also at a hospital. It’s hard. I wish I could tell you that time heals but time doesn’t change a thing. Losing a baby is real, no matter when. I suggest doing something special to commemorate your baby, it helped me a lot. I dont cry every day now but it’s still a heavy feeling in my heart. 💕

I actually heard it a couple times of "it happens all the time "

I completely understand, I’m also frustrated with how “hush hush” it seems to be but the hospital treats it like you have the common cold.

I think the worst part was how much of a nightmare it felt like. I accept I lost the baby and that from my doctor that its possible the baby wasnt developing the way if sbouldve because I was always 3 weeks behind. But the part that hurts the most is seeing the blood and feeling like I was going down a deep hole and no one had been fully upfront and told me how what all happens during a miscarriage and how much can come out

I’m so sorry! I had a MC last October at 6 weeks and I felt empty afterwards also. We started trying that next cycle, but I was not excited about it. I cried almost every day for a few months. It was our first, and we’d tried for almost a year and a half only to loose it. What helped me was to think that it just wasn’t meant to be. There had to of been a reason. Not developing properly, etc. there’s nothing we could have done different, it wasn’t our fault, and you’ll never forget but you will learn to be happy again. It’s been 3 months since we lost ours and I’m just now starting to get excited about trying again, and looking forward to it. ❤️
