counselling/therapy?

Question

I'm considering getting councelling, I've had 2 miscarriages and I'm really struggling but I'm keeping it all to myself. Has anyone tried it and does it help? I've tried it a few years ago for other issues I was having at the time but I never stuck it out long enough to notice a difference.

Answer

Counseling is always a good idea just make sure you click with your counselor because if it's a bad fit it could make you feel worse... I'm very sorry for your loss hugs to you

Answer

I have had 2 losses this year. One in April and one in September. Both right at 9 weeks. The first one I opted for the pills and didn't have any complications but after all the bleeding I'm not sure how I was alive.... and I wasn't able to send off the tissue, so the second time around I opted for the D&C. I was so nervous but once it was done and over I got the results and they found out it was T16. Which they said there isn't no chance at life when all chromosome 16 has 3. But she also said that's usually not caused by parents chromosomes. But she order a work up of my husband and my chromosomes, checked my thyroid and the clotting in my blood. She also ordered a HSG(X-ray of the uterus/fallopian tubes) which I haven't been able to do because they wanted to wait until 2 months post D&C. Once all that comes back we will have an appt to discuss the results of it all. This is a journey I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy. I think overall I'm dealing fairly well but there are times it's really hard. I'm in the military and my work was very understanding of my grieving process. I will never forget my due dates and October was extra hard for me due to my original due date and it was right after I had lost my second one.

I'm going through my second miscarraige now.  First was in August. Glow is my only outlet and I'm considering counseling but I feel like I need a group song rather than one on one. I talk to my husband,  my mother,  my MIL and friends but they all have children.  I don't know anyone who miscarried before they finally had a child. Since April I've been using this app to help with conception (it worked besides the miscarraiges) and to help with my losses.  I wish that miscarraige wasn't such a taboo subject.

I had a molar pregnancy in February and I went to therapy. It really did help me. In fact I'm still going even though I'm now 11 weeks. Therapy helps my anxiety during pregnancy and it really helped after my loss.

I am sorry for your loss. I hope you find someone to talk too.

I have also had 2 losses and  really struggling 7 months later. I have not gone to therapy only bc i talk about it, i talk about it alot eith my husband i have talked about it with my mom my best friend. I feel like i have talked it to death and i know what i shoild do and what i shouldnt think and i remind myself daily of those things and i list things i am thankful for and i feel like i KNOW what the answers are but the feelings are still there too deep under my logic and i dont see how talking to a stranger about it will be any different than talking to my husband mother and bff have been, i have not held anything back when speaking to them so i just dont think it will be any different but id like to hear from anyone that has gone how they feel it helped bc i really am struggling

Answer

I think it's a great idea to help you work through your feelings and gain perspective on the situation. Sometimes we get so stuck in our own heads and so overwhelmed by our emotions it can be almost impossible to move through it all on our own. I think it's brave of you to seek help.
