@Moosh18 I'm so sorry, sending all the love and hugs xxx

@MrsGrealish I think people need to be more open about miscarriage... it's not something we should feel ashamed of or hide for fear of making people feel uncomfortable it's a real thing and these babies are real to us! Maybe if more people understood and were open, then when it happened to them you wouldn't feel so alone.... these forums have made me realise how common and truly heartbreaking it is, if it wasn't for that all you'd see is the constant floods of pregnancy announcements etc and never realise what that person probably went through to get there... we should of been twelve weeks and we're so ready to announce it... now I just feel empty x

@Moosh18 I've stayed on this thread to follow the journeys of people who were kind to me before it gets too painful including you lovely @Moosh18

I've started telling real life people. I lost a pregnancy. That loss is part of me. Xx

I found it hugely helpful to talk to friends about my losses.

I hope you and @Moosh18 are both bearing up OK.

@Moosh18 aww no 😢! I’m so sorry!! I can’t imagine how you feel right now, I’m soo gutted for you! I’m shocked too! We’ve been speaking on so many threads and I popped on to look to find out how your scan had gone! Soo sorry, I hope you have the support you need to deal with this ❤️!

Miscarriage is extremely lonely and isolating … people really underestimate and misunderstand miscarriage.

It is so hard to explain how you feel to others who have never experienced a miscarriage. Women all experience miscarriage differently and every miscarriage is different, a different pain…some easier than others. But it is the empty feeling that is the hardest. It doesn’t matter when people say it’s meant to be… or that it was a sign that there was a problem and better earlier than later, ( even though this may be true ) it was still your little baby, a baby you formed a bond with.

My advice from experience, don’t feel you need to be quiet or not be upset in fear of upsetting others or making people uncomfortable, you need to grieve and heal how you feel best for you and it takes as long as it takes.

Some days will feel better than others

lots of hugs xxxx

Moosh18 · 08/06/2022 15:37

I've had a miscarriage before, and it happened naturally, for some reason it felt easier than this, although I wasn't as far on x

Yes the further along you are they seem more difficult,

I am expecting the worst tomorrow, I have a scan in the morning

I also had. Heartbeat of 154bpm at 7+3 but very light symptoms… which isn’t normal for me as with my last pregnancy

My symptoms were pretty full on and lasted the whole pregnancy.

As I take cyclogest I don’t get bleeding as it masks a miscarriage

Its happened to me so many times now, I don’t get my hopes up at all anymore :( I feel I am quite in tune with my body so not expecting anything tomorrow

I hope you feel better soon, take care xxx

Moosh18 · 08/06/2022 16:27

@Leila2022 I really really hope everything works out for you! My biggest concern was no sickness I had it to the point of being hospitalised before and was told I would again, I know every pregnancy is different but this felt too different... I just don't get why it measured bang on dates at every scan and then two days ago it's little heart just stopped!

Anyway I don't want to talk miscarriages on here! Give everyone anxiety! Everyone will be fine!!! X

@Moosh18 I am so sorry your going through this. I know there's nothing I can say that will help you feel any better at all but know your not alone. Your right though, when I miscarried last month I just knew deep down something was wrong. It's a gut instinct isn't it? Take all the time you need and I pray you get your rainbow soon 😢🌈

Leila2022 · 08/06/2022 16:36

just trying to be supportive

@Moosh18 I so so sorry, how heartbreaking for you. I really hope you get good care and support as you deal with this. Take care of yourself x

Amber17 · 08/06/2022 16:42

Sorry to hear that @Moosh18! Hope you’re ok. It’s times like baby loss awareness week suddenly seeing so many friends posting about it on Fb that I realised how many had gone through that and never mentioned it at the time.

Moosh18 · 08/06/2022 16:50

@Leila2022 oh I didn't mean in anyway you weren't! I just meant I shouldn't talk about it!!! I really appreciate your advice and support xxxx

I'm so sorry @Moosh18 sending you lots of love 😞❤️

Hi ladies, looks like I’m also having a miscarriage. I knew deep down things weren’t right, and the scans showing a GA 2 weeks behind and no heartbeat wasn’t promising. I started spotting yesterday and today I’m cramping. I think I cried so much after the scans that all I’m feeling at the moment is stillness. I have a follow up scan for Monday but I’m doubtful I’ll get to that.
I’ll stay on here until I’m 100% certain.
Sending lots of love to everyone else who’s experiencing a loss 💖💖💖 and also lots of positive vibes to those with perfect pregnancies 🙏🏼❤️

Moosh18 · 08/06/2022 18:37

@PinkTiger86 I'm so sorry, I really hope it isn't a miscarriage... take care of yourself! ❤️

Hello everyone,
8+2 pregnant with my first baby. Not had any scans or anything yet so hoping everything is ok! Feeling pretty exhausted and nauseous, mainly struggling with long shifts at work.
Really sorry to hear about the losses some of you are going through, it must be absolutely horrible.

Frida9 · 09/06/2022 13:09

I'm 7 weeks today (very exciting because this pregnancy is now further on than I got when I had my MC) but I feel like I have constant background period pains! This has been happening for about a week now and is worse at night/when I'm in bed. Has anyone else had this? I just feel constantly uncomfortable.
I'm booked in for a scan at the epu on Saturday due to slight bleeding I've been getting but not sure if this is connected.

EnterACloud · 09/06/2022 15:09

I had quite crampy aches last week. Not as painful as my period pains but they are terrible when I get them, more light aching in the lower tummy/sides.

hi @CaffeineCamel we’re almost the same, I’m 8 weeks tomorrow and suddenly finding work utterly exhausting (currently having a sneaky lie down)

PinkTiger86 · 09/06/2022 15:37

Hi everyone, I’ll be leaving the forum now, I had a mc today. Good luck to everyone! Lots of love 💗

brogan12 · 09/06/2022 15:38

@PinkTiger86 I have no words 😢 I am so so sorry 💔

We had it confirmed this morning that our babies heart stopped beating two days ago... it's a perfect beautiful little baby, but it's heart just gave up for some reason, I am totally broken, we should of had our 12 week scan next week and been telling people.

I will be coming off this thread understandably, I genuinely wish you all the happiest and healthiest of pregnancies. Thank you all for your support over these last couple of months. ❤️

Oh my gosh Moosh I'm so so sorry 💕 xx
