Thank you ladies ♥️ sorry it’s taken me a couple of days to reply, I think I’m still in shock and wishing it not to be happening. I passed a bit of tissue on Saturday night but that aside the bleeding is minimal now, the occasional small clot in the toilet. I’m hoping that means I’ve passed it all but have a scan Thursday to confirm. When would you take a pregnancy test? I don’t want to do it too soon, I think that will just make it harder, but also the 3 weeks they told me to wait feels like a lifetime.
@Sunbird24 that’s exactly it, desperately trying to blame it on something I did wrong, so that I can stop it happening again, but I’m realising I’m not sure I could have done anything differently. It terrifies me it will happen again. So sorry for your loss too.
@41andtryingforfirst I’m so sorry for your loss too, it does feel so surreal. One week you’re picking names and a few weeks later you’re told the baby isn’t growing anymore. It’s heartbreaking.
I think the not being alone is the only thing getting me through at the moment. It felt so lonely in those first few days, family offering kind words but they don’t really understand.
I’m just hopeful my period will come back quickly. Will you wait for a period before trying again? My hospital advised it but I’ve read on here that’s purely for dating and not for baby’s safety, so I’m torn as to what to do.
That first positive line after this will be the best day.
@Annapolis35 oh I am so sorry for your loss too, and for how hard it has been for you. I think there’s almost a feeling that people expect you to bounce back quickly but the reality is so far from that. I’m not sure I’ll ever ‘get over’ this, more just learn to live with it, like any death of someone close. In those short weeks we bonded more than anyone realised I think. I hope trying goes well for you, I would love to hear how you get on
