For the past 10 weeks I was pregnant with my first baby, I had already named him (or her), but just two days ago my dream was taken from me I had a miscarriage. It began on Wednesday June 19 I had a bit of blood on my tp, nothing to really be worried about. As the day went on the blood began to flow so I made an appointment with my doctor, she said not to worry it was just spotting and send me home. The next morning I woke up with blood on my underwear, within in minutes my family doctor phoned and asked how I was doing, I explained everything to her and she said we need to get you into an ultrasound right way. So off I went to the hospital to have this ultrasound done, well just a few minutes into the exam I already new something was wrong, we couldn’t hear a heartbeat. As I drove away from the hospital my husband and I knew our baby had died, we drove to the doctor office and the doctor told us, I am so sorry there was no heartbeat it doesn’t look good you are having a miscarriage. I cried for hours and hours I can’t seem to stop blaming my self for everything that has happened. Has anyone gone through this?
Yes, My wife and I have gone through that with our very first baby as well. It was such a huge loss, hard to explain with words but let me tell you that it was not your fault and you had no control over something like that happening.
There is hope, Now we have a beautiful baby boy and he is almost 9 months old.
The doctor told us it is better to give it at least two months. That will give a chanch for everything to heal up and be stronger for the next pregnancy. Why take the chanch of getting pregnant so soon after your first miscarriage. In my personal opinion, and with our doctors advice we waited to make sure everything was healed up.
It took us 6 months of trying to become pregnant again.
I hope so I really want to stop feeling so empty all the time. I know it takes time, how long did it take you and your wife the first time to get pregnant if that's okay to ask?
See my husband and I only tried for a month and a bit
I have been trying to sleep and I can't I just can't seem to go to sleep. How many days are you supposed to bleed after or during your miscarriage? The bleeding has been lighter then the first two days but how long are you supposed to be in this pain?
Well the pain situation is different for each women. My wife, actually did not experience much pain but she bled a lot and felt very weak and run down. I think she was bleeding approximately off and on for three weeks after the miscarriage. Like I said though it is different for each women.
After the miscarriage they said it was normal for the bleeding. If it got too much and soaking a pad within a certain amount of time then we had to go back in, we also did an ultrasound after to make sure everything was cleared up. Like I said though each women heals up differently. I am not sure how long will it take for a regular period to come back.
I am so sorry for you loss, yet I am so proud of you for your strength and courage. My mom had three miscarriages pretty far along in her pregnancy so I have always been fearful that I too will have miscarriages. You have provided me with some strength to know if it does happen I will be okay. You might feel weak and beaten up right now, but to me you strength is shining!!! I believe a miscarriage is God's way of giving you the perfect baby. You will have the perfect baby!!!
Yes today is a better day, I have been able to keep food down and I have let a little smile out this morning. In no way am I over what happend but it is getting easier knowing that I have people to talk to. I've looked at the positive things in my life such as my husband, health, and a future baby. So thank you again to everyone who has helped.
