Please don't think im nuts but Im so excited right now!! I have finally stopped bleeding! It just feels like the torture of seeing it everyday and knowing what caused it literally crushed me everyday. I feel more like a human today, still on the side of wore out but not as. We are going out tonight and buying a new thermometer since my dog chewed up the last one. Im sorry for posting this but im just so darn excited i have to tell someone. Now to sit and twiddle my thumbs until the first AF shows up so we can start trying again

That's not nuts at all  I'm glad you have something to be happy about! Sometimes it's hard to find those silver linings in something like this, and the fact that you found one today is wonderful.

I agree with Erin. I am so happy you have something to be excited about considering the circumstances.

I totally get how you feel! When I finally stopped bleeding I felt almost like a new person, without that daily reminder. Not that I ever forgot of course but it's much better without the physical reminder, at least for me.

Ya know, the part that is hurting me the most, yes I lost the baby. but everyone is avoiding me now, i know people don't know what to say, i don't expect them to have the magic words, i will always talk about the baby and I will always hurt because I lost a child. I told my husband I want a mothers ring and I expect the babies birthstone on it when I have another itll be my 3rd child not my 2nd...but if I say one word to someone about the baby they run...and it hurts so bad...

i am sorry they run from you. maybe if you explain before hand that you plan to talk about your angel, and how you feel when they ones you care about avoid it, they might not run. i think sometimes ppl just dont know how to handle it. it help my friends and family when i told them that i wasnt just going to sweep them under the rug and forget about them, i love them and want to talk about them. they are now more understanding about it. and then of course you can always come here and the loss board to talk about your angel hun

When Cora died I felt like I had some sort of extremely contagious disease. At church I'd sit down in a crowded room and there'd be an empty seat on either side of me. It really hurt. It's like, if they sat by me their babies would die to...or if they even looked at me.
I was very relieved when I stopped bleeding too. I agree, it really is hard to have that daily reminder. The bleeding after Erin and Patrick didn't bother me so bad because I HAD the baby, but after Cora? Every time I went to the bathroom I'd break down in sobs.
