Miscarriage drama causing stress?

Q: I miscarried a baby the weekend before last. I went into the hospital due to excessive bright red bleeding that was passing large clots and tissue and the doctor informed me that there was no fetal activity during the sonogram. No heartbeat, no…. anything. I kept the news to myself for about a week so I could deal and then told a close friend before I told my ex. My ex and I have had no contact whatsoever since we broke up, which was because I told him that I thought I could be pregnant. It took me until 10 weeks to even get a positive urine test because my levels were so low. After everything happened, I took a week to myself and just tried to get to feeling better. I’ve been so stressed out and upset that I haven’t been eating and I went from a size 10-12 to a size 6-8 within a period of less than two weeks. My ex told me that I have no right to feel anywhere near as upset as he is because he’s already lost three children due to various accidents and crime things (although I definitely suspect he’s lying to me about at least part of that) and that until I hold my dying child and can’t do anything about it, I can’t talk.To top it all off, one of my best friends that I trusted with this information went and told my ex that I miscarried and then told him that I was lying once he relayed all of the details I told him back to her the next day. She was diagnosed with a molar pregnancy that went all the way to 20 weeks earlier this month and he sent her the text message describing exactly what happened and how it happened and she accused me of “copying” her story and telling him that what happened to her happened to me instead. When I told her what had happened, she didn’t believe me, called me a few choice words and told me to never speak to her again.Basically, I’m trying to cope and deal in my own way and everyone else seems to be acting dramatic and not wanting to believe me. I believe that I should be allowed to cope and everyone else should keep their two cents to themselves, but obviously that’s not going to happen. How can I possibly get over what happened when the only person that I can really talk to is myself?

A: Losing a child is very difficult and I think that yes, losing a child that you were able to care for for many years is a little harder but it does not mean that it is not unbearable to miscarry. I miscarried 5 years ago when I was 16 and it was the hardest thing I have ever been though. Right now you need to just think about yourself. Screw everyone else. Do you have any family or other friends? Keeping it to yourself tends to only make things worse because then people may not understand how or why you are feeling a certain way. Talking about your experience can really help with the healing process and there are many websites out there with miscarriage forums where you can talk to others who have been through similar things. I’m really sorry that you’re not getting the support you need. This is a very hard time in your life and support is the one thing that you need the most. I wish you all the best.

Can you be told you had a miscarriage and then find out in a follow up visit that you didn’t?

Q: A friend was told that she had a miscarriage, and then a week later went to a follow up appointment and found out she was still pregnant…. Mind you she never knew she was pregnant before she miscarried, she was drinking and smoking like a fiend, and after she thought she had miscarried, continued with this behavior…. What kind of effect does this have early in the pregnancy? And does quitting cold-turkey (which I doubt will happen) add more stress? This person already had had 2-4 miscarriages prior….. Gee, wonder why….

A: My sister in law was told she had a miscarriage and then went to the Dr. and found out she was still pregnant. She was stressed out major b/c her car got stolen and she started to bleed very heavily and so was told she miscarried. She is now 5 months along.

Trying to conceive, after having to have pregnacy terminated 2mths ago for medical reasons

Q: Hi there, heres a bit of a story, but I would love some thoughts…..A few mths ago was delighted to find our that myself and my partner were expecting a bub and due beginning of Dec 08. I was hesitant at first to tell my partner as he had been set up 4 years ago by a women (with slight mental issue that he was unaware of and who is on the sickness benefit as a result, as she is alcohol and medically drug dependant) and lied to about protection her being on the pill and assurances etc and later he faced the phone call many men I guess dread ‘you are going to be a dad’. She was so disturbed she dreamt that she and him were a couple and will one day be together…etc etc – as you can see I am straight to the point and do not have a lot of time for women who set guys up and actually take away from them something that should be very special – to his credit he has done (as I ) everything to help this little baby – we were wanting to bring her up and let her still have access to the mother etc…but subsequently after the mothers inability to look after her and dumping the baby on my partners parents when she wanted to either drink or get with other men, it all became to hard, stress wise and financially to obtain custody. Unlike the mother who had legal aid and the time to drag this on and to my partners parents who became close to the baby and began to dictate to us our access it became a 3 way battle. Lets say this women has destroyed his family and also brought a child in to this world that will not have a normal upbringing – which is what we were offering her – and he no longer has a relationship with his parents who are looking after the child and are treated as babysitters by the mother – they are blinded – anyhow as you can see that winds me up and Im getting off the track here – but it’s a bit of background to see what stress we have been under the past 3 ½ years – if I had only met him earlier this would never have happened, poor guy! so was thrilled to think we would have a baby of our own…The day after I had it confirmed I had to go into hospital after I got involved in trying to help my dog from being attacked I ended up with some nasty injuries and subsequently had to have 3 epidurals rather than GA as so not to harm the baby and a week in hospital – I was 12 weeks at that stage, so it was all traumatic and after having a miscarriage August last year thought all was fine that I had made it that far. 3 weeks later I had a scan – I went on my own as Im a pretty independent person – little did I know the news Id be faced with…Just on 4mths it was found that everything had developed nicely and I could see ‘his’ feet and hands etc, but his brain had not developed – subsequently 2 days later after a lot of crying etc had the pregnancy medically terminated. We did the ‘deed’ several times over the correct time and had fun and just relaxed…just seems unfair when we were wanting to have this baby that we have been through what we have been and yet ‘God’ lets women keep pregnancies (as above) that are otherwise soul destroying to families – he does work in mysterious unfair ways at times!!.As a result of the termination it was found I have very rare blood and now have a prescribed 5mg of folic a day (recommended does is 0.8mg) which is a great thing to now know….Since then I have had a normal period and am now late for my second period by 2 days, had no headache (as I usually do when my period is going to happen) – though I have brown spotting and a bit of a tummy ache there is no blood. I did a First Response pregnancy test this morning and it was negative – so whats up with my body – is it just getting rid of the old crape inside…?? Or could I be pregnant? I want to be but know if I talk my way into thinking that I will get disappointed…..

A: Wow! I’m so sorrt about all the apin and trauma you and your family have been through. It is truly a shame that women like that can concieve over and over again when they have nothing to offer a child. However, women like us, that want a child so bad and would be great mothers have such a hard time with getting pregnant or staying pregnant. All I can say on that situation, is that I will pray for you and your family. And I hope everything works out well for you.To answer your question, its possible that you could actually be pregnant. Lots of women have some light bleeding and spotting in the beginning. However, don’t stress and get your hopes up because it could be your period approaching a little late.I hope you’re pregnant. You sound like you want a baby really badly and you’ll probably be a wonderful mother. Good luck and I hope you get all the desires of your heart.You will be in my prayers.
