I'm so devasted that my baby got taken away from me....it feels so awful
I had a missed miscarriage the baby estimated gestational age from the ultrasound was about 8 weeks and 2 days and I was suppose to be 10 weeks, went in for a ultrasound because of red bleeding and passing some small clots and it's now two days later and it seems like it belly shrunk a little. I'm assuming that when I started bleeding my body recognized that the baby has died and therefore started shrinking..? Is that how it works I'm not too sure

@Wintersmom hi sorry for your loss. I also suffered a mc at 11 wks on 29 of jan. It was so heartbreaking. I got my negative pregnancy test after 2wks plus but hcg is still showing faint line. Yesterday I started to get really sharp lower abdominal pain. Read that it's the uterus shrinking. Seriously learning as I go here. Epu didnt tell me this so bad. Gonna call ho today. Once I get my period hoping ttc asap. I think the healing depends on how long you were pregnant for. In hoping after this pain my period comes back and my body would have recovered for me to try again. Will see. How are things with you now
