Q: Missed miscarriage

Im so sad, I found out today that we lost our angel 6 weeks ago at 11w3d. Tomorrow I'm ment to be 17 weeks, instead I'm going in for a d&c. I'm so scared about this, how do you get over this, I feel stupid that I was walking around all happy when my baby has been an angel for 6 weeks. How could my body have not known??

I found out at 14 weeks pregnant that my baby had been gone since 9 weeks. I also had no idea anything was wrong. Please be kind to yourself as you walk this incredibly hard road. It took a few months after my D&C to fully understand and accept this outcome, but time does heal to some extent. Even though you will never ever stop loving your little babe. Try to focus your energy on healing your body and mind and remember, it will take time. Best wishes to you and big hugs.

I had a missed miscarriage at 10 weeks a year ago on the 22nd; baby had stopped growing around 8w5d. I didn't know either. Don't blame yourself. There is no way you could have known it had happened and there is nothing you could have done to prevent it. I am so sorry for your loss. You can message me if you'd like to talk.

--- i also felt "how could i not have known?" i was angry at myself for not picking up on hints that the baby was no longer alive... i also went to a very bad flu at one point and i tried to blame that for my loss. i blamed my husband for a fight we had causing me stress. i blamed just about everything i could think of in the beginning. for months afterwards i would breakdown crying randomly. we had already bought baby things, some furniture and little toys so it was hard to see those. i also got angry at my husband for not "being sad" about it,, until he told me he was trying to be strong for me,, i have since caught him getting emotional about it. just try to support each other and carry each other through it. it will be hard but it gets easier. your little angel will always be with u. i found some comfort knowing my baby never felt pain, never felt afraid,, the only thing he felt was the comfort of my womb, and my love for him. and even tho it was a very short

i also had a missed miscarrige, at 10 weeks but i thought i was 14 weeks. i had suddenly started bleeding bright red, alot. and i had no pain (people always say miscarriges are crampy). i had a D&C done 2 days later (but i was in the hospital for those 2 days)
it was a very emotionally painful experience, im so sorry u have to go through this. The d&c was scary for me, i had never had any kind of surgery prior to that.. i felt like something was stolen from me. like something was missing,,, i hated to part with anything that showed me there once was a baby there. i cried for days when my husband threw away my old pill bottle (it was pain killers for after the surgery) i felt like i no longer had any proof that this happened. like the baby just vanished and was forgotten forever.... that was years ago and i had 2 healthy babies since. after a mourning period, i now know my baby will NEVER be forgotten, and will always live in my heart and my thoughts, even if i dont have &q
