Hello ladies, you can tell from my blinkie we just experience a miscarriage. This was our second month trying which seems to give people the idea that it must not hurt since we werent trying for very long. We've been waiting for over 2 years just to get started TTC and I've been on the WTTC boards here on JM for 2 years
We got a positive pregnancy test last weekend and then started full bleeding on Wednesday. Its Saturday now and the bleeding seems to be lightening up a little bit but its not emotionally much better
I wanted to introduce myself because we'll of course be trying again and I needed to connect to some ladies who had been through this before

 and I am very sorry for your loss. People who have not experienced a m/c have a hard time understanding it. It is such a difficult experience... I hope that you find lots of support here, the ladies are so sweet.

Welcome Lash! I suffered my m/c in Novemeber 2007. We waited 2 months to try to conceive again. So far, no such luck here. My eggs have aged. This is a good board to be one. I am sorry about your m/c.

First off I want to start by saying that I am so sorry for your loss. No matter how long you were trying or how long you got in the pg the hurt is still the same. The girls here are great and they are soooo supportive. I hope that the healing process goes as smoothly as possible and that you can get back to TTC in no time. Just take one day at a time.

Hello Lash, Im so sorry to hear about your loss. Please know these women are so helpful and supportive. It is a great place to find some support when going through this. I agree that a loss hurts regardless of how long you were pg. It was still your baby, and it isnt fair. If you need anything please just ask, and welcome to the family

Another Dec mommy???? I'm so sorry. It doesn't matter how long you were trying to get pregnant, you loved your bean just the same. I think that someone who has a miscarriage with their first pregnancy may suffer more, I think I did. I'm sorry you are going through a loss, I'm here if you need me

 Welcom Lash.
People always say the wrong things when they think that they're trying to comfort us. The hurt is real and don't let anyone tell you otherwise. This is a great group, everyone is very supportive. I look forward to getting to know you.

Although I'm so glad you made it over here, I'm sorry that you are here! The circumstances are sad but the ladies here really are wonderful.
We tried for about the same amount of time, and your right, it hurts! Why anyone would think any different is beyond me. We lost a baby and that is a tough thing to go through.
If you ever need to talk you can pm me, but the ladies here really are VERY helpful  We've ALL been through it... some of theses ladies (Myself included) more then once.

I'm very sorry for your loss. This is a really tough and emotional thing to go through. I am glad, though, that you've come to this board, which is full of wonderful women with a wide range of experiences and at least one thing in common. The support is definitely here.
I suffered my m/c last week, and we got pg on our third try...so I know exactly how you feel when folks tell you the pain 'shouldn't be that bad.' I'm here if you need to talk.

I'm so sorry for your loss hun  People can be extrememly ignorant sometimes. I think one of the biggest things I learned through all of this is SELECTIVE HEARING!!! My friends sometimes have the nicest intentions, but just end up saying that LAST thing i wanted to hear.
I hope you don't experience that a whole lot.
I hope everything heals up perfectly for you and you are able to start ttc again quickley!!!!

Oh, I am so sorry for your loss. No one understands what a mc does to woman. I have to say, I certainly had no idea until it happened to me. Plus, it really does not make it any difference on us whether we miscarry at 5 weeks or 8 weeks. I was just as distraught the first time as I was the second time.
Again, I am sorry for you loss and hope you find this board helpful and supportive.

 Lauren, I am so sorry for your loss. I know what you mean, we were waiting for awhile and then got our BFP at 2 months also. I know that it hurts.
You are right though, this is a great board. Make yourself at home and feel free to PM me anytime you need to, okay?
