@Silva: I've been reading Empty Cradle, Broken Heart and got to a chapter on control last night. It completely sounded like me with our last miscarriage...how I couldn't deal with not being able to control things so I repressed my grief for so long. Realizing that, I think I've tried to allow myself to be more emotional and take more time this time.
Last time, I took maybe two days off work. I couldn't handle sitting at home with my thoughts. But most of my coworkers also weren't aware I was pregnant in the first place so I didn't have to deal with returning to a bunch of sideways pity looks.

I had a chemical pregnancy three years ago. I was heartbroken. I have a beautiful healthy boy now. It is so sad how many people go through this kind of loss. Now, I am glad it was early but at that time it was still very painful.
-
Yes. Miscarriage at 7 weeks over 2 years ago. And now have a happy 12 mo LO!
-
@MaryM: I'm so sorry!
I had one at 7 weeks before ds.
-
-
Two miscarriages, both at 8 weeks. All the stories online are making me emotional today.
-
@Ash: that first quote gets me right in the heart!

Our only two pregnancies in the past 2 years have both ended in back to back miscarriages. A little boy, lost at 11 weeks & our unknown bub, lost at 6 weeks.
I'm grateful we experienced a boring and healthy pregnancy with my daughter (who's 2.5 now) - because I am absolutely petrified that any pregnancy we MIGHT be blessed with in the future if our IVF transfers work, will also end in a loss.
I hope we all can get // already have, our rainbow babies soon.
-
2 chemicals back to back with our first IUIs before our DD
They stung we were so hopeful!Prayers to all
-
@Ash: Love those quotes, have you shared on the IF inspiration thread?!
-
I had one.
-
I had a missed miscarriage in July (no hb at 8w scan) and I'm still hurting. It was a club I never wanted to join. Hugs to all those with losses in their lives
-
2 miscarriages at 9.5 and 5 weeks, and a late loss at 33. Finally got my rainbow baby though, and she really does make it worth it. I still grieve my lost babies, but I'm so grateful for the one who made it.
-
Yes, two, one at 10 weeks one chemical the day after I got a positive test.
-
yes. i wonder when people ask "is this your first" i always used to freak out. it still freaks me out to be honest.@MaryM: thank you for that post. lovely.
-
I had 2 losses before DS. One at 9.5 weeks and one 2 months later at 5 weeks. I was completely devastated the first time, and it took me a long time to heal. Early in my pregnancy with DS and now that I'm pregnant again I feel that anxiety every day
Love to all of you amazing Mommas out there -
to everyone who has experienced the sadness and heartache.
I had a blighted ovum diagnosed at 8 weeks and a little one whose heart stopped beating at the 10w ultrasound. I'll never forget seeing the tiny arm and legs on the screen, or seeing the flat line when they went to measure the heartbeat. When I go back to that moment, my chest still gets tight. But I also look at my darling 3 month old and know that my losses lead her to me and for that I'm grateful. -
@MaryM: I'm so sorry, I missed this. Sending you healing and love.
I've had two. I lit my candle last week in honor of all of the lost babies I've come to know through this beautiful site. Healing and light to you all.
-
@JoJoGirl: I'm still grieving too.
@MaryM: lots of love, friend.
I lost my first baby at 6 weeks 2 years ago and my second at 12 weeks in August. This last pregnancy we started with triplets, and lost them all one by one after hearing a heartbeat.
-
I had a blighted ovum in May. I thought I had dealt with it but as we get closer to my due date it is clear I have not.
-
@Crystal: I didn't know it was triplets
hope you're going ok as can be @AprilFool: sending good wishes for with dealing with due date. I'm wondering how I'll feel about passing the due date in March I'm not pregnant by then either.
-
@Nutella: thank you.
️
@AprilFool: milestones like that are really hard
Love to all of you amazing Mommas out there 
hope you're going ok as can be
