Empty after a miscarriage at 9 weeks

I find out I was pregnant when I was four weeks along after three long months of trying with my husband. I know three months is not a long time, but it felt like it.
At five weeks, I had my blood work done and waited for a call with the results. I never got the results and had to call the doctor. It turns out my hgc was 979 but my progesterone was only 11. I was put on Prometrium. Two days later, I had the worst cramps ever. But according to the doctors office everything should be okay and I need to stop worrying. It wasn't....
At 9 weeks, I started bleeding. When I went to the doctor, I learned that the baby died three weeks ago when I had the cramps. Nobody prepares anybody for a miscarriage. It was the worst pain in my life. I started having labor like cramping and it continued until I basically gave birth to the sack with the baby 13 hours later.
Now I have to move on and try again but I am scarred. It was the worst experience of my life and I can not bare to go through this pain again.

new hope

its just one or two weeks then my little boy will say hello to the world, i was so excited to feel him but one morning i received a strong kick from him, my husband kiss my tummy and said hey baby please dont hurt your mommy okey! i just ignored that incident then day past by i notice the silent of his kicks then three days after we visit my doctor and found out that he dont have heart beat.....a loud cry of my husband keeps my tears from dropping until i cant hold it anymore. But my tears stopped when i found out that i have my new hope again after 1 1/2 years and im now very careful and worry about my new unborn baby i
wanted to buy a fetal doppler to monitor the heart beat of the baby but i'll just hope and pray for the health of my new baby and i now this time
will be a bouncing baby and no more tears of sadness just tears of happiness i sacrifice my career for success of my precious child and i know its worth it and priceless.

Reality Set In

I'm 15 and I just lost my baby girl. My boyfriend Dylan and I were dating for 2 years before we decided to have sex. We had talked about it and decided it was time. We went on a picnic and afterwards we went back to his car and you know... did it. Sometime had gone by with many sexual encounters. We were celebrating our anniversary, first kiss, when I started feeling sick. He was getting ready to take me home when I
threw up in the restaurant. We got to his car and he said we should stop by Wal-Greens and get a pregnancy test. We did and 15 minutes
later I found out I was indeed pregnant. He stood by me. Throughout
telling my parents who totally freaked but accepted the fact, and all the
mood swings. It was August 1st when I started feeling weird. Me and
Dylan were sitting on the couch when I felt a large pain in my stomach.
We immediately rushed to the hospital cause we thought it was time.
We were in the delivery room. Just me and Dylan, not our families I felt
weird having people staring at my vagina. But the doctor said there
were some complications and I had to have a c session. After about 10
minutes the doctors let Dylan and I see our still born daughter. She
weighed 4lbs and 10oz. We named her Johanna-Rose Brylan DyAnna
Simmons. I want to tell all the teenagers out there that life is short and
you should wait before bringing a child into this world.

2 misscarages 1 yr apart and still no luck

I was very young when I got pregnant the with my first baby.
One day me and my soon tomb husband were having unprotected sex I was 16( yes I know young and not very smart ) I got pregnant in nov and misscarued in feb!
I was devastated with what had happened. It all started one day out of no where I just started cramping and the. I started spotting pinkish I was all most 12 and still hadn't gone to the doctor I was new at all that so it took me lo get to go through the process bc I hadn't told my family so I had to do everything alone, anyways I started spotting and that night I went straight to the hospital bc I knew that wasn't normal, I had tons of blood clots coming out and I could stop the bleeding everything happened so fast so I call the hospital and told them what was happening they told me I had to get there fast b. It wasn't normal, they also told me to check the toiled everytime I bled bc the baby could have came out without me feeling it but it didn't. Tmi sorry
So I arrived at the hospital they told me I had had a spontaneous abortion I still don't know what that means. They ran ultrasounds but they didn't let me see it the weird thing was that I had to push my baby out which was weird and scary to me the next day I had a D&C. and they gave me pills to put down there to stop the bleeding at home we were all so devastated at this time I was already living with my fiance.
A week after I went to the doctor and got on birth control I got on the shot I believe its called depo well I gained 40 pounds on that thing I only got ut for 3 months it was horrible.
Months later I found out I was pregnant again I dont remember when I got pregnant I just remember being 9 weeks pregnant in Jan so I went to the doctor for my 1 st ultrasound and the doctor had told me my baby was to small it was measuring 6 weeks and my baby had no longer a heart beat I was so sad and depressed I put on another 20 pounds so I decided to go on the pill it made me very sick so the doctor told me to get on mirena so i did 2 months later I was having shocks down my legs and my stomache they were horrible the pain would come and go whenever it felt like it I was getting very scared bc I would get migrants everyday!
So I went to the doctor and he told me he couldn't check me bc I was fine he didnt want me to get pregnant again bc I was to young which I agReed but I new my body and those pai s weren't normal so I made him check me and give me an ultrasound he said something wasn't right so he finally decided to give me a pap smear and something came back wrong so he finally took out that MIRENA and it was BLACK my body had rejected it he said that my body was rejecting it and that it was accumulating bacteria that's y I was getting pain and if I would have waited a few more weeks the bacteria would have spread in my utterus and I would have had to take my uterus out I was so scared so I didnt and haven't used any birth control since !
I am now 19 still with my nubby loving each other and still no signs of an angel!
We r ready to start our little family.
Can any one help or give me advice on what to do I'm very worried bc my mom had alot of misscarages also I'm scared I might be the same way!
HELP..
BABY DUST TO ALL OF YOU...
GOD BLESS YAL!!

5 tears

I have just miscarried for the fifth time. I feel so numb to all the clinical side of things,testing, where and who to see next, do we try again and if i hear "it's normal one in four pregnancy's end in miscarriage", i think i will scream.
I have had the routine testing done after the third miscarriage and was told that there is nothing that they can find that would be causing the misc.
So we tried again only to loss our baby at 9 weeks the pain is so overwhelming and it's so hard not to be selfish and think why me?

After doing some research i found that maybe the reason for all the early misc may be my hormone levels (progesterone) so with guidence from my doctor and a fertility team which have great success rates, my partner and i tried again. Straight away i knew i was pregnant even with the extra hormones playing havoc. we were so positive and for the first time i actually felt like i was glowing. at ten weeks further than we had made it before i was starting to believe that we might finally have our family. BUT before my fortnightly check up my instinct had kicked and i was having doubts so my partner came with me to the doctor. I had previously had a blood test done and the results showed that my progesterone level had dropped. The doctor wasn't to concerned as he said that at this stage of pregnancy it is normal but because of my history an ultrasound would be advisable to put my mind at rest. looking at the sreen and the sonographers face i new our dreams were over. The stopped heartbeat inside me...... ripped it's fifth hole in my heart .
It is the sadnes and emptiness of the thought of never being a mother that is hard to accept. I can only read your posts and take some comfort in the fact that my misc all happened early. x
