They suck. We should not have to go through that, ever. Babies shouldn't die.<br /><br />Just so you know, though, your doctor wasn't making up the "use protection" bit. It's another cruel twist of fate, but we are more fertile after a miscarriage. My DH and I have about a 1-3% chance of conceiving on our own, ever...and to took 10 months of IUI treatments to conceive our twins...and then I went on to have a damned chemical pregnancy (natural conception) the month after our loss. Stupid, unfair, I was NOT ready to be pregnant like I thought I was, and I wasn't upset that I lost that little bean because of that, but damn, that was a painful 2-day OMG I'm actually pregnant blip in my TTC radar.<br /><br />Hugs to you...Amy L.https://www.blogger.com/profile/17013013895577702357noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2614900991111270710.post-39859296706402521462012-01-13T13:05:55.031-05:002012-01-13T13:05:55.031-05:00The first visit back to the OB's office is abs...The first visit back to the OB's office is absolutely the worst, and you captured the pain of it perfectly. I had always thought there should be two waiting rooms at OB's...one for women who had just lost their babies, and one for the smug fertiles. I hated going in there, and would always refuse to sit in the chair I sat in the previous appointment when I found out my baby had died. Why is it I am always the only one in there every crying? Why are they always the lucky ones? I'm sorry you had to experience that pain.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2614900991111270710.post-47845012970988211962012-01-13T10:12:51.108-05:002012-01-13T10:12:51.108-05:00Hi there, I just wanted to let you know that you ...Hi there, I just wanted to let you know that you have helped me out on a very personal level. I was on the August boards as well, my username is W8ting4ababy. After struggling with infertility for 5.5 years we finally recieved our first positive after our 2nd IUI this year on December 10th...happiest day of my life. But it quickly turned into another disappointment on January 3rd when i went for my first ultrasound to discover a beautiful gestational sac and a yolk sac with no baby. They immediately took me off the progesterone and said i would be miscarrying or having to have a D&C. I go back in this following Tuesday the 17th for the next ultrasound which i would of been 9 weeks to see how things are progressing(which they haven't i still have no signs of miscarriage) looks like i will also be having D&C. I just wanted to send you a big thank you for writing your blogs they have helped me out more than you'll ever know!! Big Hugs to you and you are always in my prayers!<br /><br />SaraAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2614900991111270710.post-54188799642542738632012-01-13T08:11:43.300-05:002012-01-13T08:11:43.300-05:00Well, you hair is better than theirs!

I remember my 2nd trip to the ER during my loss when I had to sit in the non-critical area which was basically a big room divided up with curtains, listening to a pregnant heroin addict in the 'room' across from me trying to get admitted to the hospital, which she did after she passed out. I had some very bitchy thoughts going through my head too.

Turns out there was another area that no-one bothered to let us know - whoever thinks its ok to leave a shell-shocked couple dealing with their first miscarriage for never less than 45 minutes in a room full of bellyrubbers -each time - is a sick fucking individual.<br />You know, we all have mobiles now - there's no reason the reception can't take your mobile number and call you when its time to come back, surely? (did that a few times whilst waiting for callback, our hospy has a reasonable coffeeshop!)<br /><br />Yes, I'm still angry too I guess. <br /><br />You probably know this, but there is some line of thinking that women are more fertile after a miscarriage, but I know thats likely not what you want to be thinking about right now - I reckon thats what your doctor was thinking about?Stinkyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15656595158457726802noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2614900991111270710.post-20720082637660044832012-01-12T16:56:43.441-05:002012-01-12T16:56:43.441-05:00Hugs.

They will run deep with pain for a long time, I have never been able to see a heart beat, but I do know the hope and then the devastation that you feel when the world comes crashing down. Everyone else seems so happy and all you want to do is cry. For my last beta I went in and was stuck in the waiting room for close to an hour with babies getting blood work and too many pregnant bellies to count. I too was thankful for my phone at that moment. I tried to ignore the beautiful babies and bellies, but my heart cried out. My prayers are going out to you, by all means go for unprotected sex. If you body decides you are able to get pregnant than so be it. It would truly be a miracle. Praying you will be blessed soon. ♥Jesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07267965587047367494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2614900991111270710.post-30614285467235849692012-01-12T14:57:49.626-05:002012-01-12T14:57:49.626-05:00I love the honesty in your post.
