My partner and I found out four weeks ago today that we were going to become parents. At a routine scan to date my pregnancy yesterday we found out that we have lost our precious little bundle and we are both devastated. I'm having my hormone levels monitored for a few days and I am being re-scanned next week to confirm the loss of our baby. I will have to have a D&C and I am terrified. If anyone has any advice it would be well received. Thank you in advance x

I'm sorry I've not been on this blog in a while :( I'm gonna try and get through the messages!I am so sorry for your loss ❤ missed miscarriages are horrible for everyone involved. Anyone have any advice?

Do you think a doctor would be able to tell me if it was a miscarriage or not? I'm a little scared. If it's a miscarriage and not a period that kind of turns my life upside down. :(

I don’t think so :-/ I mean, I suppose you can get a blood test and have your hcg levels checked out but ask a doctor first because it may not work that way

Help me. I think I'm miscarrying. I don't know if I was pregnant to begin with. I've been bleeding really heavily for 8 days with lots of clumps and severe cramping and back pain. I've had two negative HPTs. Would they be positive if I'm miscarrying? How will I know if it's a miscarriage or a period??

If it’s a chemical pregnancy, or miscarriage, it may be hard to tell and I don’t think you’d test positive on a pregnancy test if it’s super early. Some women do, and some don’t. Either way, if it’s a super different period I think you should see a doctor :(

Confession #636

I've been so excited about my pregnancy, even though it's not idle, me and my boyfriend went through a rough patch so I'm not sure the baby is his. He says it doesn't matter and he will be here always, and I believe him, he has never left my side but I'm also manic depressive and I really worry that is going to effect how I parent. I had an abortion earlier this year, and I didn't think I wanted to go through that again, but I don't know. I don't think I can do this.

[pregnancy-confessions]

I'm 22 years old and I'm in a stable, healthy relationship + I'm financially as well; last week my doctor informed me that my sickle cell caused some very concerning damage to my organs that could potentially complicate a pregnancy and therefore advised that I consider planning a pregnancy early. I really want to be a mother but i have so many goals. I want a healthy pregnancy + baby but I'm nervous to jump right into it.

Confession #634

Pregnant with my second baby is so different from the first time. I was sick from the beginning all the way until she was born I literally was throwing up in labour. Now I am 11 weeks and have only thrown up once giving me the feeling that I'm having a boy instead of the girl I had last time. I'm both excited and upset about this because I mostly want girls and it means I will be sicker with them.

[pregnancy-confessions]

I feel bad for my boyfriend because since I've became pregnant sex kills me. It hurts so bad. I have to hold back tears every time. I also don't want to be touched, kisses, told I'm sexy or anything anymore. It all feels so weird. I know it's hard on him. I miss cuddling and having sex all the time. I just can't do it. I can't have him sleep close to me or anything. I don't know what's wrong wth me or what to do.

Confession #633

[pregnancy-confessions]

One of my pregnancy cravings is the smell of new, genuine leather. I've also craved the smell of antiques. I secretly want to lick and taste both of them. I won't do it, but I want to.

Confession #632

[pregnancy-confessions]

After losing twins and having a rainbow baby I can't stop this jealousy that my pregnant sister in law hasn't had to feel the pain of losing a child. I don't know why I would think something so horrible but it keeps coming into my mind. I feel so bad

Confession #631

[pregnancy-confessions]

My best friend of 6 years is not happy I'm naming my child the name she has had picked out.. I never knew about this name but it feels so right to name my child this name. She's not happy for me at all and acted so shitty at my reveal party. I honestly don't care if she still names her child this name but I'm doing what I feel is right.

Confession #630

[pregnancy-confessions]

After the first baby we lost, I think this one was rushed. Our way of moving past the pain of the first loss. Now 6months in nothing is going right and it's either I find a way to get rid of the baby or I will kill myself. It's not time.

Confession #629

---

I’m so sorry you’re feeling this way love; if by getting rid of the baby you meant abortion, I believe you’re too far along for that. You can start looking into adoption if that works for you. You’ve still got quite a while to go in this pregnancy, maybe your feelings will change?

Right after birth, most women feel an overwhelming sense of love and happiness when they’re holding their baby for the first time. When and if it hits you, your feelings may be very different.

But please don’t end your life. This is just a little blip in time and it’s not worth losing your future over. Keep going, okay?

My husband and I have a beautiful 6 month old baby girl, and my best friend and her husband just announced they're expecting. I'm so excited for our babies to grow up together like she and I did. BUT - even though I have a 6 month old - this whole thing is giving me baby fever AGAIN! Trying to remind myself of the misery certain aspects of pregnancy can bring so I'll settle down a bit!

Confession #628

[pregnancy-confessions]

Part of me wants nothing to do with babies but I have another part this is experiencing baby fever in the worst kind of way. This scares me because I'm a college student and not ready for babies.

Confession #627

[pregnancy-confessions]

I have struggled with my husband our entire marriage about intimacy and sex. I want a baby so bad and I want to be close to him so I've been fighting him about it for years. Now, I feel so completely spent and burned out emotionally I give up. Its scary but after being rejected and pushed away so much I feel absoutely no passion for husband at all and I'm terrified of even trying. Without me pushing, I know we will never have a baby.

Confession #626

[pregnancy-confessions]

I tell people I cloth diaper cause it's cheaper, better for the environment, and safer for baby, but I actually just love doing laundry and organizing it so much. I love that there's like, a science to cloth diaper laundry. It's such a challenge and I'm so satisfied when I get it right.

Confession #625

[pregnancy-confessions]

My mother, my best friend, and my boyfriend haven't cared about me at all since I got pregnant. I'm due in a week and a half and I'm scared my baby won't love me either. I don't even love myself.

Confession. #624

My career involes me visiting people in the community. I pray every morning I will not have the sudden urge to vomit in a stranger's home.
