MMC and waiting this stupid stuff out

[radi0edit]

So I had a MMC at 6w3d
I'm supposed to be 11 weeks today.
Last Sunday (10w2d) I started brown spotting.
On Wednesday is when it turned red.
I've been on and off red/brown heavy spotting since.
I've know for 2 weeks now and this is pure torture.
I need to move on but I feel my body just isn't letting me without dragging this out.
I'm exhausted and this is so frustratingly awful.
That is all
It's like come on body, work one way or another

I'm so sorry for your loss. I can totally empathize. I had a 2nd MMC last year that I decided I wanted to let my body do its own thing to avoid another d and c. It took over 5 weeks for the bleeding to actually begin (absolute torture carrying my dead baby for that long). I would love to say that it made me stronger or somehow enlightened me but it truly just knocked me to the ground and kicked me in the ribs.
I hope you can move forward quickly and easily. If you need someone to chat with I'm around.

I wrote about my missed miscarriage experience on a blog I just started today. I see they're not allowing me to post the link to the blog because I'm too new to this site, so if you're interested in reading about my natural miscarriage that took 20 weeks to complete from the time the baby stopped developing, googling "longest natural miscarriage ever" should hopefully take you there. Please share it with anyone who needs to read something like it.

I hear you. I'm having my second MMC now. Sigh.

Found out last Friday the baby wasn't going to make it, crampy on the weekend, and then....nothing. Now we're just waiting for the heartbeat to pass on so we can induce with Cytotec and I really hope that works because I do not want a d&c.

Blah this all sucks A$$. I'm so sorry you're in this boat too.

Just has my first missed miscarriage this week. Was away on business in ATL and went to the bathroom and wiped and saw brown blood. Doc said spottkng was normal but I knew something wasn't right. Sat in my business meeting with a brave face until I wiped and saw dark red and started bleeding. I didn't have anything on me such as pads because why would I? Booked the next flight home and passed a golf ball size clot on the airplane bathroom. I knew then it was not good. Got my ultrasound the next day and saw the baby but no heartbeat. Doc scheduled me for a D&C the next day but my body couldn't wait. I woke up at 4 am to what felt like I was giving birth. Went to the ER and she pulled out the sac as I was passing it. I'm still bleeding with cramps and it's been 2 days. Not sure how much longer it is going to last but I am mentally and physically exhausted. So sorry for all your losses. We will get our baby soon.
