I had a Miscarriage in January of 2008 before I conceived my son. I'm expecting my third and it's making me think on the baby I lost alot. I finally wrote a peice for my Angel Baby. -Beneath My Heart- Beneath my heart is where I held you, My precious tiny gift, Your fragile, presence was a soft smile on my lips, I held my secret tightly and began to hope and plan, But they called back an Angel, and took you from my hands, If a Heart had ever broken, This Heart of mine had died, To know my arms would stay empty, flowed an ocean from my eyes, Though your time on eath was not lengthy, In my heart is where you stay, till I may hold you closely on that glorious day of days, For now you play in Heaven, Under the Angels watchful eyes, This is only till we meet again, Angel Baby this is not goodbye.

So, I am starting my 5th cycle ttc after loss. I was around 5 weeks at the time of my miscarriage. So, I wasn't far along and I would think by now I would be back to normal. I feel like I 'kind of' am. My cycles have been 26 days every time up until this past one which was 28 days. I've also been taking vitamin B so that may be the cause. My last 2 periods have been extremely heavy though. A lot more heavier than normal. The last one I had brown spotting and when my period started it was almost black for a couple of hours before it turned to red. This period I had just about a 1/2 day of brown spotting before it started and then full red. Has anyone else experienced this? My doctor doesn't seem to be concerned. He said to call if I have any breakthrough bleeding - which I don't.

I don't want to upset anybody, but I have no idea where else to go to ask this question. I haven't been on here since 2008. I was recently pregnant. I had a miscarriage on the 13th of February 2010. I was devastated, even though I had only suspected pregnancy for 2 months. (I kept getting negative tests back, but that happened with my daughter too, until I was 10-12 weeks along.) This time, I had already received two positive results. I was already feeling the symptoms. I just knew. Then I miscarried, on St. Valentine's weekend no less. :'( Anyway, I have a question. I'm less emotional than I was, by a LONG shot. But physically, I wasn't very far along. The doc at the ER thought that maybe I was 2 or 3 weeks along, He couldn't say for sure, bc the baby had already passed by the time I got there, so he had no way of knowing. Anyway, back to my question. I'm still sore to stand for periods that exceed 10 minutes. I can barely do dishes. I still feel like my cervix is open. WHY? How long does this last? My uterus still hurts, I still get twitching. He did no ultrasound, no D&C, just a urine test that came back negative and a cervix check, and then a blood test that came back negative, which meant that my HCG levels had returned to normal, so he knew that the baby was no longer inside of me. I'm sad, but I'm a little worried. Does it make sense to still have uterine pain and and open cervix two weeks later??

I was told all most a week ago I was experiencing a missed miscarriage. I guess the baby passed all most 3 weeks ago now, and I still have yet to have any bleeding or cramping. This waiting and unknown is making me crazy. I finally got some meds to help me sleep but I don't know how much longer I can deal with all of this!

I say to myself everyday that the ppl that have kids and don't appreciate that beautiful blessing u really don't know how lucky and truly blessed u are....u are blessed with the gift of life that sum ppl don't have and can't have....I hope no one ever takes there little one for granted.....I wish I could gave had the chance to hold my baby girl in my arms n raise her and teach her everything I can and watch her get bigger grow older and taller smarter....I truly do miss her from the bottom of my heart....

Hope - not to be a downer but we did see the heart beat at 6 weeks 2 days. Today (at 10 weeks 1 day) we found out that the baby had died somewhere during week 8.

Hope4BabyV - 736 days ago.
question for you ladies who had a M/C after 8 or 9 did you see the baby and hear the heart rate? i only ask becuase i also had a MC at 6 weeks on my first pregnancy and at that time they were not able to see the baby at 5 weeks but this time we saw the baby move and heard the heart rate at 9 weeks so i like to think we are safer this time but still always have that worry that i will lose this one too...

amk1984 - 736 days ago.
My thoughts and prayers are with all of you. My husband and I just had an ultrasound and found we have lost the baby. We were 10 weeks 1 day. This was our first pregnancy ever, so it will be a rough recovery emotionally

I'm hoping someone may have had a similar experience or some input for me. During the month of January I my period was about 2 weeks late. It lasted from January 28 until about January 31. Usually when I first get it, the flow is very light and gradually gets heavier. This time though, it was so heavy I didn't even have a chance to get to the bathroom. As gross as this sounds, I felt/saw a clump of blood fall into the toilet. Before getting my period I had felt nauseous and slightly lightheaded, back pains, and just not feeling well. About 2 days after the bleeding stopped I was lightheaded, nauseous(almost vomited), in a cold sweat, blood pressure dropped very low, and passed out. I actually passed out twice that day. The next couple days I felt dizzy and nauseous and sleepy and just not right. When I had taken pregnancy tests around the time of my missed period, they came back negative, but I know they aren't always 100% accurate. I went to my doctor because of the way I had been feeling and he gave me a list of things that could be wrong, one of them being a miscarriage. Because of the negative pregnancy tests I said no, definitely not. But after thinking about it, a miscarriage doesn't seem too far fetched. Does this seem like a miscarriage? If so, is there anything I should do medical wise? Thank you for any help!

Its with tears in my eyes and a very heavy heart that I come over to this forum from the 6weeks pregnant group. Last night the vague brownish spotting became heavier fresh blood and clots. I have no doubt I have lost this baby as all my preg symptoms have dissappeared altogether. I will call the doctors this morning. I was just getting excited about this pregnancy and dont know how the best way to tell the ladies that have joined my friends network in the 6 week group. I dont want to make them sad at such a wonderful time for them. My heart goes out to all of us in this forum, sometimes things happen for a reason, sometimes there is no reason that we can see, whatever the case, I wish you and me the best.

This site is wonderful. I miscarried on Nov. 29th at 7 weeks. It was my first time being pregnant. I had just finished telling people and then had to turn around and tell them that we lost it. On January 18th I took a HPT because my BB had been hurting for a week or so and it came back positive. I have an appointment scheduled for Feb 22, but neither me or my husband can get excited. Just wondering if anyone has any successful stories to share. I don't want to think the worst but also don't want to set myself up for disappointment.

I had a m/c on boxing day 2008 i can easily say it is the hardest thing i have ever had to go through.As I write this i am sat looking at my beautiful baby boy born on the 2nd Dec 2009. I'll never forget the baby that wasn't meant to be, but looking at baby William makes the pain more bearable. I know it seems hard to believe when you feel like you're at the bottom of a big black hole but we are proof that you can get through the hard times and end up with something so perfect you just can't help but stop and stare for a minute or two. Take care and be strong xx

Hello everyone. I am so sorry for all of your losses. I lost my second pregnancy at 6 weeks the day before Thanksgiving. It was really one of the hardest things I have ever been through. After having a succesful and uneventful pregnancy before, I never thought I would lose the baby. I was so devastated; plus, I had just told everyone two days prior that I was pregnant and the whole family was excited. Apparently HALF of all pregnancies end in miscarriage and it is extremely common and the majority of women go on to have healthy full term pregnancies. The Hubby and I have decided to wait until march before TTC again. I figured it would be best to give myself time to heal, physically and emotionally. best of luck to you all, sorry for the long post :)

I guess I feel like if I get this out I might just feel better! My husband and I were married on May 3rd of this year and he has been bugging me since before the wedding to get pregnant, he wants to be a dad so bad! So in October I finally gave in and got prego! We were so excited... and then we went for the 8 week scan and were told the gestational sac was completely empty. SO after 2 more weeks of waiting and repeating u/s we decided on a D&C. So this is my first pregnancy and first m/c and I am scared to death that I won't be able to give my husband the child he wants so badly. I am usually not a person to think what if but in this case my brain just won't shut up. Every day feels like it goes by so slow and of course some are better than others. I know in my head and my heart that this will get better but I swear if anyone else says 'Oh, you can just try again' I am going to scream. And the wierd thing is that even after all this sometimes I wake up in the morning thinking none of it ever happened and then the realization always hits and that is how my bad days start out... waking up mad at the world. I hate that I am like this lately and wish sometimes that none of it had ever happened! Thanx for letting me vent ladies and sorry for the novel!

Just stopping in to express my sadness at you losses. I lost a baby at 11 weeks in March (just before my son's 1st birthday too, cillamaria). My heart breaks for all of you but know that others understand and are thinking of you. Also, another word of encouragement....I am now 37 weeks pregnant again (the month right after our loss we conceived) so there will be happiness again...I promise!

cillamaria - 791 days ago.
hi ladies...I'm sad to post on this forum but am very glad it exists as its a lonely time...I was 14 weeks pregnant but a scan this week showed that the baby died at about 12 and a half weeks...after an apparently normal scan at 12 weeks something must have just gone wrong. Tomorrow I go to hospital for the termination...my husband and I are in shock but are on autopilot as we attempt to get everything ready. Its our daughter's 1st birthday on Sunday too so we need to get our happy faces on for that. Such a surreal time. To all of us in the same boat my heart aches for you.

miscarriage feels like such a lonely journey nomatter how many times it happens. this was my third last week. my first was at 13 weeks 2nd was at 6 weeks and this was 8weeks 5 days. im not a religious person but i do believe things happen for a reason tho hearing that from others makes my own blood boil! but looking back it makes some kind of sense. my partner and i take solice in the fact at least we know we can concieve....we just need to keep them. we always tell each other theres always people worse off than us. his brothers girlfriend carried the full 9 months and the baby was still born it was the worse day ever. and i cannot begin to imagine how anyone would begin to deal with that.... i think this is such a good site to vent and tell your own stories as like i said at the start m/c feels so lonely and this site has really helped me. i come on whilst at work and its always on in the background through my last pregnancy. obviously cant go back on the week by week boards and had to stop looking at it so not to upset myself reading over the weekly development. didnt even realise there was this section!

Hello Ladies. My DH and I began losing our baby, Monday November 16th. I was 6 wks and 2 days. I began heavily bleeding and cramping (worse than period cramps), my hcg fell during the week. We have been so heart broken. We know that our hope is in the Lord and that our little baby is in heaven. We are grieving the loss, thankfully surrounded by great family and friends.

Hi! I'm currently pregnant with our second child, however this is my third pregnancy. The last pregnancy was unfortunately lost at 8 weeks. I was also blown always by this, because my first conception/pregnancy was with out complication. I never would have thought that I would lose the last one. So, now we're pregnant again and I am super paranoid that this one will also end in a miscarriage. I am checking my BBT every morning. It's fluctuating. So here is my question. What BBT's are considered a good strong pregnancy and if it can be detected that a miscarriage is on the horizon, which indicators are there to look out for? For instance, .4 degrees south?
