 Quote From: tamlub There is nothing worse than being so elated about brining in a new life, and then faster than you can blink it is taken away. I have a daughter who is 2 1/2 and a son who will be 3 months on the 14th. In between my two children i lost a son. I went in for a regular ultrasound and was told by the tech that my child had no heart beat. I was made to wait hours before being seen by the doctor to confirm this and then another 2 days before my child was taken from me. I was later told that he had passed atleast 2 weeks prior but my body had not expelled him. I have never been through anything more awful and heartbreaking and pray that i never do again. I know that for someone who has experienced this or similar, that nothing can be said to make it anybetter. Sure god has a plan, and things do get better in time. But its so hard to hear it from someone else. I understand exactly what you are going through. I just lost a baby on the 4th of April, this year. This was my fourth miscarriage, only this time it was totally different. With all of the others I did not have an ultrasound or even saw the baby. I was only about a month along. With this one, I had already had 2 ultrasounds. I was 2 1/2 months along. I saw him/her when she/he was 1 month old, then I saw him/her 2 weeks later, because I thought I was miscarrying. I heard the baby's heart beat and everything! It was so exciting. Then the 3rd time my husband was actually going to get to see the baby, and hear the baby's heart beat! He was so excited and anxious! Could not wait to hear him/her. The doctor checked for 30 minutes and then told me that he couldn't find a heartbeat! The baby had passed away 2 days before. I was devastated. We had tried for almost 2 years to get pregnant in the first place, then it is ripped away. I could not understand why I could not carry a child. I only had to wait one day to get the baby removed, but it was still long enough. I really wish that the baby was big enough to bury. I know that sounds horrible, but at least I might have some closure. I honestly don't know where to go from here, or how to cope with this. I wish that I knew what to do next. I know that many people have this story. I am glad that I found this on the Dr. Phil website, maybe we can all help eachother back to healing. Thank you all for your stories.
