The docs only said that the baby most likely implanted too low. I'm afraid I may be cervically challenged. Baby was fine as far as we know, and he was still alive with a strong heart beat and all. I did not have a missed miscarriage, I went into pre-term labor.
ETA: You may want to be careful saying that b/c someone who's had a miscarriage could find that HIGHLY offensive and insensitive. |
So sorry if it came out insensitive - of course i dont know how it feels and I am sure its worse than i can imagine. I had a friend who went for her 10 week scan and the doc said her baby died and she had to have a D&C. She has a masters in genetics and they did the tests and couldnt find anything either so i guess sometimes you dont know. But there are sometimes reasons as well.
I know too well about depression and what I really meant was that instead of becoming more depressed about it, maybe you can see a specialist who can analyse your uterus (not sure if there is one???) and can reassure you that it was a once off event. If not, its important to get some emotional support from friends and family so that your hubby is also not overwhelmed by it all.
I guess sometimes I feel that since I am an expert in depression (I have had it for many years on and off) I can flippantly share my advice. Sorry

but I know how debilitating it is and also that its important to get help.
anyways, I hope it comes right for you and that you can go on to have a happy and safe pregnancy and all the blessing from there on......
