Hi Ladies. I agree with diane-taketwo. I lost my baby boy in May 08 at 14 weeks gestation. I had been in and out of the hospital with bleeding for over 6 weeks. I was lucky and allowed to hold him, I had already picked the name Joseph so that is who he became. He will always be in my heart as I know all of yours will always be and hope to meet him one day in another place. Baby dust to you all lovely ladies. Sending hugs to. xx

Hello ladies. For anyone experiencing a loss, no matter how early, I suggest that you might find comfort in giving your baby a name. I have named my little one Robin, as it fits for a girl or boy, and a family of robins has made their nest in my backyard. I even etched the name Robin in the tree where the nest is located (I added a few pics to my profile page). Now robins give me a sense of peace and hope and in doing this I feel I've taken a major step towards healing. Hugs to you all.

mjamison-- when I had my first miscarriage which was natural I was at 13 weeks and it took a good 2 weeks before I was done passing everything. I bleed heavy for the first few days passing lots and lots of clots and tissue. After the first week it slowed down but did not stop for another week. It was hard because it just dragged on and on.

Can't help but think as each week passes how far along I would have been. Today would have been 12 weeks. So sad.

For those of you who did it naturally, how did you know when you had passed everything? I started bleeding friday, then Saturday, REALLY bad and thought I had passed everything. Tonight, I started bleeding again and passing more items. After reading some things I think it might have been the cord... but not sure... How long did it last for you??? I am sorry for everyones lost on this page!

Having a hard time this evening... realizing that this week I would have been 20 weeks pregnant with the baby I lost in February...but I am not. Or, should be 7 weeks pregnant with my second pregnancy this year...but I am not. Instead I am waiting for this ectopic pregnancy to (hopefully) resolve itself. This just plain sucks. Just having a down moment and needed to vent. Hugs to all others who had endured terrible losses.

I chose the tablets/medical option . The first three doses did not work at all - they just caused a high temperature, low blood pressure and hours of excruciating cramps but no bleeding. After no luck with the oral tablets the doctor decided to insert some more vaginal tablets and at that particular moment I passed everything - blood, placenta, umbilical, clots, baby and all. The bed was flooded and they had to yell for a bunch of nurses to lift me into the bathroom and onto the toilet with towels under me to stop messing up the whole room. Blood was even on the walls. It was so humiliating. I was discharged later that day (yesterday) and last night my body still seemed to think it was pregnant. I woke up several times during the night with agonizing pain in my breasts and a temperature. Each time, on waking, I was filled with a black panic: 'something's wrong with the baby!!', then, after waking up a little better I would realize - the baby's gone. It's GONE. It's not there any more. No point worrying about it. Then I would feel horrified and fall asleep. I'm finding this miscarriage thing way harder to deal with than I expected.

Just to update you all - sadly my little one didn't make it. I went for scan yesterday and today and both gave the same results: the baby's heart beat has now stopped. It put up a good fight and its heart kept beating for three weeks after it stopped growing, but it is now at peace. Thank you so much for all your kind comments, support and advice. It has meant so much to me and really helped me through this difficult pregnancy. All my love and very best wishes to you and yours xxx

Hi Ladies, I just wanted to share this!

Well, i didn't ovulate late. The baby died sometime this week and is now measuring at 5 weeks 4 days with no heartbeat. So sad. THe doc wants me to wait the weekend and if nothing happens, take the Cytotec to start the miscarriage. I am nrevous about that. And my husband has to go out of town on Monday. I want to avoid a d&C though. Does anyone know about Cytotec? What are the side effect?

Allboys, I am so sorry. I had my first miscarriage last week and was absolutely devastated, so I can't even imagine what you must be going through. I try to look at each day is a new one, though, and try to take them one at a time.

cheyne - if the heart is still beating and the technician didn't notice anything wrong, then I wouldn't stress over it. Any u/s before 11 weeks is difficult. Some measurements can be a little off, and some EDD's can be off by as many as 2 weeks. Hang in there, discuss your results with your DR as soon as you can.

Happy Mothers Day Angel Mommies! A Mother's Day Wish From Heaven Dear Mr. Hallmark, I am writing to you from heaven, and though it must appear A rather strange idea, I see everything from here. I just popped in to visit, your stores to find a card A card of love for my mother, as this day for her is hard. There must be some mistake I thought, every card you could imagine Except I could not find a card, from a child who lives in heaven. She is still a mother too, no matter where I reside. I had to leave, she understands, but oh the tears she's cried. I thought that if I wrote you, that you would come to know That though I live in heaven now, I still love my mother so. She talks with me, and dreams with me; we still share laughter too, Memories our way of speaking now, would you see what you could do? My mother carries me in her heart, her tears she hides from sight. She writes poems to honor me, sometimes far into the night She plants flowers in my garden, there my living memory dwells She writes to other grieving parents, trying to ease their pain as well. So you see Mr. Hallmark, though I no longer live on earth I must find a way, to remind her of her wondrous worth She needs to be honored, and remembered too Just as the children of earth will do. Thank you Mr. Hallmark, I know you'll do your best I have done all I can do; to you I'll leave the rest. Find a way to tell her, how much she means to me Until I can do it for myself, when she joins me in eternity. ~JODY SEILHEIMER Heartfelt Words by Jody In Memory of Her Son, Cory

I am CERTAIN of my dates. I should be due 24th December. I must be 7 weeks pregnant - my LMP was 19th March. My cycle was a regular 28 days. On the odd occasion it wasn't, it was never shorter than 27 days and never longer than 30. I got a strong positive pregnancy tests over 3 weeks ago on the 17th April. Yet I went for a scan at 5 weeks 6 days and they saw nothing but the yolk sac. I went back the other day at 7 weeks exactly and they saw a fetal pole and heartbeat and gave me a hospital letter for my doctor saying they clearly saw these things - but it was so tiny I couldn't see it - barely a grain of rice. They said I am 5 and a half weeks. Impossible. What's going on? I think its stopped growing. What if it's died inside me. Help!?

Hi there Id like to tell you my story about miscarriage. Im now 36 (shh! lol) and pregnant with my forth baby,a big shock but ever so happy and yes this is my last..My first pregnancy with hubby now of 17 years was when I was 20. Again a big shock at the time but we got used to the idea very quickly and were excited about it all. I had my first scan around 12 weeks or so and found I was carrying a boy. We were delighted. At around 20 weeks I cellebrated my 21st birthday. I dont drink now and didnt then so a few cups of juice was fine and what a great day it was. I hadnt had any morning sickness as Ive had each time since and had quite a bit of discomfort in the lower abdominal region all along but all seemed fine. My last scan and check up the docs had said baby is doing as expected as was I. Anyway two days after my 21st I started to bleed,not much to begin with but I knew something was amiss. The next morning I told hubby(boyfriend at that time) and went to see the doctor. At the exam he said baby seemed fine and susspected an eptopic pregnancy as the painwas radiating around my left side mostly so was sent to the hospis for another scan etc. I wanted to drive but the doctor wouldnt allow it and so off I went in an ambulace which took over an hour for a 10 minute drive all the while Im sitting shaking and holding back the tears for my mum who was beside me.. I cant remember much really now but I do remember having an internal and my cervix seemed ok then off for the scan. The sonogrpoher was a little strange this time and we were not told anything,at this point hubby was beside me and Im so gald too. I was asked to pop up my trousers and we were taken to a little side room. We couldnt look at each other just held hands waiting. A while later in pops the doctor to tell us baby had sadly not made it. I had had a silent miscarriage about 4 weeks before around 16 weeks. I couldnt believe it what was goingon? hadnt the doctor just told me my baby was fine? what about my last scan all was well then so whats happened..I was taken down to be booked in for a D&C not offered one but told this is whats happeneing. I was put in a room in the materninty ward with all the new mums and babies walking past hearing them craying and cooing and you cant belive the torture we went through. As many other ladies have said I was also pushed back for numerous emergencies and I can remember being trollied down to the op room and the girl standing beside me with the needle saying just count back from 10.I pleaded with hernot to do it,poor thing lol and we were both in tears then I woke up still in the maternity department.You cant belive how happy I was to ge the hell out of there..

I have recently had my 3rd miscarriage :( my last 2 in march 08 & march 09, i thought everything was fine until my 12 week scan, i still had all my pregnancy symptoms but baby had just stopped. So i had a d& c. I found this so heartbreaking as i was so looking forward to seeing my babies. I am now waiting for an appointment to try & find out why i miscarry. I really would like to try once more.

well yesterday I went to the ER and had an exam for spotting (8 weeks exactly) they then ordered an ultrasound and I had an internal and external. They didn't find a baby anywhere. I then had my blood drawn so that I could check HCG levels. They said they were very high and will probably start to drop over the next few days. They told me my cervix was closed so if I didn't have the fetus (or as they say tissue) then I would have a D&C next week at my appointment on Tuesday. Could anyone tell me what to expect that have had either a natural miscarriage or a D&C I'd really like to know what will be happening to me.

Very sorry, Olivia.

I have just undergone a miscarrage and had a D&C on Tuesday. I thought I had just made 13 weeks pregnant, but bub had stopped developing in about week eight and hadn't told my body. For anyone who might be interested, I have written up a story of my experience on my blog page (my miscarrage story - the world wasn't ready for my bub). It goes through suspecting I had problems, confirming I had miscarried and my D&C operation. It contains 'way too much information', but might be of interest to people. Thanks Olivia
