Two months ago, we found out we were pregnant again. We wanted to give our daughter a sibling close to her age, so we were excited. Two months of name selecting, of telling friends and family, of predicting how our daughter would react, of anticipating what our new addition would be like, of what his/her smiles would look like, of the joys we'd be welcoming in our lives... During a routine check-up and sonogram, the doctors found that our little one's heart stopped beating. We're now having to go through the miserable aftermath that comes with miscarriage. Foremost on the list, the procedure to remove the dead fetus from the womb. But even worse is the heartache. We work with a pregnant woman who smokes, who drinks soda like it's going out of style, and who knows? Maybe she drinks at home. But she's almost nine months now. We're devastated...we did everything clean, just as last time. No caffeine, no alcohol or smoking, vitamins and healthy foods, talking of and to our little one in the womb. And now he or she is gone...and while I'm still struggling to accept that, my fiancee is a wreck over everything else. Even our daughter suddenly started to scream when the doctor told us.
No family, mother, etc. should have to go through an experience such as this... sorry to hear about this, Valyn.
wtf? Jesus, have a little bit of compassion. Sorry to hear, Valyn. Take your time to heal from this. Maybe seek out some counseling (individual and couple) to help you guys get through the immense grief you must be feeling.
This is the only time I will post this. Be respectful. There is a time and place. Anything else that is posted that is troll-ish in nature will result in a break from the forums.
There's not much you can do about any loss.... that doesn't mean that you should go around being a chode when somebody is expressing their grief.
I am so sorry for your loss Valyn. I'm wishing you and your wife peace, and I hope that the rest of your thread will be *** free. (Am I allowed to say ***?) Nope.
