Don't ask me why it's taken me this long to make an official intro...
I'm Brenda, married to Simon 6 years. We have a dtr, Sienna who turned 3 on the Sunday (13th).
Feb. 08 was our second m/c and I found this board shortly after that. This board really help me not feel so alone. We had a BO in 04 and than this one in Feb. went in for initial US 9 wks and no HB baby measured 7wks. For some reason this loss has hit me harder than the first but also made me realize even more how much I want another child.

I have learned so much from this board and wanted you all to know how great it is even as someone who was a lurker.

Brenda

Hi Brenda

I am so glad that you decided to introduce yourself! It's really fun here getting to know everyone and I look forward to getting to know you!

BTW, my story is kinda similar to yours. I had my initial appt in Nov at 9 weeks and there was no heartbeat. The baby was also measuring around the 7 week mark. I had a D&C and we are now on our 4th cycle TTC.

Can't wait to get to know you!

Let me please start with saying Im very sorry about your losses, but Im glad that you found this board. I think it is great that you finally posted. I can definatly understand lurking, espically when you arent sure what is going to happnen, and while you are still healing from your loss(es). I really do hope that you post more now that we know you are there, so that we can get to know you as well. It makes me happy to know that you found support and helpful information on here. I think it is very reassuring to know that others have gone through similar experiences, and please know that if you need anything, every one of these women have amazing personalities and are more than willing to help out with whatever they can. Welcome to the family hun.
