I lost my Baby....  

post #1 of 33
Thread Starter 
On Monday late morn I had brown mucousy spotting and called my mw. She had me come in for a quick u/s to see the heartbeat and set my mind at ease but I already knew . This pregnany has been different from the beginning. I only had fleeting moments of nausea and I lost 30 lbs with dd pg and 40 with ds because I was so sick, and though I have been exhausted I knew in my heart this Baby wasn't coming to us yet. We just told dd on Sunday, I hadn't wanted to untell her and dh asked what I meant by that and I wasn't sure how to answer. We told her the Baby would come in the summer. Last night she asked dh if a brother or sister and when and he said he didnt know and it would still be quite a awhile. She accepted that. Sunday night I kept waking over and over with the overwhelming feeling I had lost something, or had left something behind, or even the feeling I hadn't finished something I needed to do. I told dh that morning when he asked why I was so restless and hours later was calling him to tell him of the blood.
The bleeding and cramping had gotten preogressively more intense but I think the worst of it was yesterday afternoon as I lay with a hot towel in a baggie over my stomach. The contractions, surges were coming very closely and I was feeling gushes and pushing sensations with each. My mother was here to be with my children. I baked Christmas cookies with my little ones between waves because we are the house all come to for Christmas day. When on the couch the surges got to the point I needed to breathe through them.

This morning as I lay cramping and bleeding, curled between my sleeping little ones I felt fleeting moments of peace. I am hopeful this little one will be sent back to us in time.
I am so incredibly sad. I am disappointed. I should have been 8 weeks yesterday and instead I lay there pushing forth my Babe far too soon. It sucks so bad. I have never miscarried before and when I would read posts such as these I would weep for the women and thankGod I had never had to endure that. It sucks. It sucks. It hurts and it sucks.
I am sorry to leave this group. I wish you all uneventful and blessed pregnancies and beautiful, peaceful births.
Blessings Mamas.

I'm so very sorry for your loss. Our loss was around this time last year and the holidays made it even harder in some ways. Grieve on your own timeline. You have every right to be as sad as you feel. I will pray for you to have a quick recovery both mentally and physically, my friend.

I'm so sorry. This sounds exactly like one of my miscarraiges - including that knowing feeling and feeling at peace surrounded by your living children. I hope and pray that having your family nearby at Christmas will help you recover (I was also surrounded by my extended family as I lost that one on my little sis' wedding weekend. I found great comfort in having all that family with me.). Please remember to take it easy.
