Happy experiences after miscarriage

[bklove]

I'm just happy that i've met so many hopeful women who have had happy endings, that has been my happy experience so far.

June 06 I found out I was pregnant but had just split up with my partner of 7 years. On the scan the baby had stopped growing and I had a natural miscarriage. At the time I was overwhelmed with sadness and a sense of loss but really struggled to work out whether it was for the baby or my partner. I decided to leave everything behind and move away. So I did and after a while in my new place I met a lovely man who is now my husband and we're trying to conceive. If I had had the baby it would have been dearly loved but I would probably never have moved and met my husband. Good things come from sadness sometimes in all sorts of different ways.

Ladies I just wanted to say thank you so much for posting these. We've had a miscarriage this week and I really am ok because I truely believe when its meant to be, its meant to be x

However all of these wonderful stories have really boosted me and once everything has completely 'moved through me' we will start TTC again.

For some very odd reason I genuinely feel ok and extremely positive. It was tough but I think its made me and my DH even stronger and closer and I'm so happy I have such wonderful family and friends around me who love and support me. I feel very loved and lucky weirdly enough.

I also want to say that BnB is the most wonderful supportive website and I am honoured to know such amazing and strong women and to be able to turn to them too in my hour of need xxxx

I guess mine would be knowing that I can become pregnant.

I've always thought that I would try to think this way if it had happened to me.

Also, I wouldn't be here if my parents hadn't tried again after their miscarriage. Now there's a happy note.

My mother too had a miscarriage and went on to have two beautifully healthy, successful children (yep, one of them is me so thank you Mum).

Ive got two things that my mc's have given me. a) i can go through hell and still feel normal, happy, and hopeful about life and ttc. the other thing b), oh, yes..i know i can go through birth now, maybe not easy, but certainly with a less feeling of ' oh, i have to be drugged up to my eyeballs', which i did before, after my first mc, lol!!

Good things come to those who wait, and as my mum and my oh have said, 3rd babies are the best, lol!

Hugs, Omi (survivor of two mc's)

I felt similar to you. After the shock/tears/anger and all the other emotions I initially felt, I then started to feel there was light at the end of the tunnel and felt more positive for the future. I remember thinking when I was pregnant that I wouldn't want to go through the first trimester again if I were to miscarry (yep, I was very negative the whole 3 months of my pregnancy!), too much waiting and not knowing, but when it happened and after I'd accepted it, I feel fine about it now and I'm looking forward to getting pregnant again, although I'm hoping and praying that it's sooner rather than later. All my family, friends and work colleagues were amazingly supportive and so was this site so I just feel thankful for everyone that I have around me, including my wonderful husband x

Mugzy.....congratulations babe, wishing you lots of luck with this pregnancy.



I gave birth to my 1st baby, Rachael at 24wks....she only lived for 17hours

I was soooooooooo excited when I became pregnant with my 2nd baby but nervous too and always had a nagging doubt in my mind. At 34wks on Boxing Day I went into labour and I gave birth to Thomas a couple of hours later on the 27th December. He seemed to be struggling and the Dr's were worried about him but seemed just as shocked as us when 28hours later he rapidly deteriorated and died. It's the anniversary of his death today and I'm feeling very raw....he would have been 7years old yesterday.



I didn't think I could cope with all this pain and thought about ending it all when....I started feeling sick at mealtimes. I found out just 6weks after losing Thomas that I was pregnant again and was shocked to say the least. I went into labour at 24wks (just 1 week before we were due to get married) which they stopped with drugs, the same thing happened again at 28wks but luckily they stopped the contractions again.
At 35wks I was having quite a lot of tightenings and went to hospital to be on the safe side....they said I was 4cm dilated and I gave birth to Lauren just an hour and a bit later. She was perfect and apart from a bit of phototherapy for jandice she was fine and didn't have to go to special care at all. Lauren is now 6years old.

When Lauren was 12months we decided to try again and were shocked to get pregnant the 1st month of trying. The same thing happened at 24wks and 28wks as had previously happened with Lauren but this time I managed to carry until 38wks. I had an internal at my antenatal appointment and the consultant started laughing and said "you're 4-5cm dilated....didn't you know?". Abi was born healthy and beautiful later that night. Abi is now 4years old.



I got pregnant and had a miscarriage at about 6wks when Abi was 2years old



We started trying again straightaway but it took 9months to conceive our next baby. Toby was born at 36wks after a very fast labour....he's gorgeous and is a very healthy 13month old



We went to Italy to a friend wedding when Toby was 5months old and weren't very "careful" about contraception as I was breastfeeding. To cut a long story short....we brought a little extra home than we bargained for. We always wanted 4 children so were very happy even if it had happened a little sooner than expected.
I was horrified when I started to bleed at 7wks....the scan showed that I had miscarried one of twins but the other seemed fine so I was pleased about that. All seemed well till the 20wk scan when the sonographer found a large cyst on my placenta, next to where the cord is attached. We have been quite worried about this but I have had regular scans to check the blood flow through the cord isn't being disrupted and the consultant now sems quite confident that it shouldn't cause any problems now but I have another scan booked for a few weeks time (if I carry that far).

I'm feeling quite confident now about Smudge...I still worry sometimes but am hoping that this will be another happy ending

Can I update????

Smudge was absolutely fine and was actually a Smudgette

Erin was born last Tuesday at 37weeks gestation and is a happy, healthy little girl. The cyst didn't cause any probs in labour luckily as it was waaaaaaaaaay bigger than expected but hey ho....Erin is here and that's the end of my success story as I'm not having anymore.

[thingy]

Thanks girls this thread is so nice and encouraging. I mc 2 weeks ago and feel lucky i can fall pregant and so quickly. I have pcos and only started trying in august. Can't wait to try again and praying for my miracle.

 

[applegirl]

After 2 early miscarriages and 2 chemical pregnancies I will be 6 weeks tomorrow with what I hope hope hope is our sticky bean! Big hugs to all of the ladies on the miscarriage boards. There is every reason to hope

I have two beautiful little girls, one 7 and one 18 months old, didn't plan on having anymore although deperately wanted a boy so left it to if it happens, it happens and it happened 18 months later, sadly I miscarried at 17wks 5 days, my first miscarriage. There I was thinking I was one of the lucky ones not to have to go through that having two perfectly normal pregnancies. I'm now hoping that soon I will be able to TTC again and have a happy ending. I do have hope as my friend had 5m/c and last month gave birth to a gorgeous little girl so it does happen. Good luck to all of you trying and hugs to all of you that have been through such sad experiences.

Hi Ladies.
In the summer of 2007, I became pregnant and I really was upset. I didn't ever plan on having children and I felt like I would not be a good mom. I kept it a secret and only told some of my family and some of my OH's family. I had a miscarriage at work at 12 weeks. It was the worst time of my life. I went into the hospital and my cervix was still closed. They sent me home and said I was fine. The next day I had my first scan and they would not let Brian in the room. The tech would not speak to me at all or show me the screen. He sent me to the ER where a doctor just said your baby has died. I had a natural miscarriage that took about a month to finish. I sunk into a depression and I knew that I really did want that baby. I actively ttc even though my OH still wasn't too sure about us having a baby. We had been together 5 years and I knew now was a good a time as ever. I miscarried October 4th, and I conceived Helena on January 4th.
I worried my whole pregnancy, but I loved her sooo much. I had her on September 29, 2008 and she is just over 4 months old now.

So that is my happy ending!

Hello all,

Thought i would add my story too, I would have loved to have read a thread like this when I had my M/C.

I had MMC picked up at my first scan at 13.5 weeks on 28th Jan this year, D&C at hospital and many sad and lonely days made better by this forum. So many girls have helped me so much in getting through the grief. I am now about 6.5 weeks pregnant and being very carefully monitored. I must have gotten pregnant straight after with no AF. Im keeping all crossable bits of me crossed! Sending all who need it lots of love. You will get through the hard times. Promise.x

Having had my EPRC last week, this thread has made me feel a lot better. Here's to the future ladies!!
