Miscarriage

Miranda

I’m honestly at a loss of what to do or say... I know what I’m feeling is depression, but I just need to find a way to get through this. I experienced a late miscarriage at 15 weeks. I went in for a normal appointment and the dr was unable to find the heartbeat, they did two ultrasounds to confirm, but there was still no heartbeat. My best friend came with me to my appointment with her 8 month old in tow and a huge part of me hated her in that moment that I found out my baby died and she sat there with me with her perfect, healthy baby boy on her lap. I was told after the second ultrasound that my baby only measured 12 weeks, so it had been 3 and a half weeks since the baby had passed. I was told i had to have a D & C because my body wasn’t recognizing the loss. So... i went ahead with the D & C, only to find out that the baby was 15 weeks in size and had likely only passed 2 or 3 days prior to my appointment. I feel guilty for having the D & C, i feel guilty for taking Zofran to keep myself from getting sick, i can’t shake the feeling that this loss is completely my fault. I can’t stand being around anyone but my husband right now because I feel like he is literally the only one who understands what’s going through my head. If anyone knows of any online support groups or has any advice to help me get past the guilt that I feel, please, please share.
