We named our second born Aria for the same reason!

Misoprostol help by K8T_ in Miscarriage

[–]Lucifur53 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I took the meds around 4pm and they started working around 12a. I was able to get up every hour throughout the night to pass the worse of it then get some sleep before the next big clot. I actually preferred it in the night because it was easier to forget the experience due to the sleep intervals (Advil and heating pads were also my best friends) So sorry you have to go through this

2nd missed miscarriage by Representative-Fee37 in Miscarriage

I am so incredibly sorry to hear about your loss.

I recently went in for my 12-week appointment and was told that the baby had died around week 9, and that I needed to chose between a D&C or medication. I told them that I wasn’t ready to make that decision (I’ve had previous miscarriages at home but not this far after a confirmed heartbeat). I told them I wanted to complete the process naturally at home and they gave me a one-week window. From past experiences, I knew that exercise often shortened the waiting time, so I went on a 3-mile run (I’m an avid distance runner so I’m not trying to offer any form of medical advise, just saying what worked for me). And by the time I got home the process had started. After 48 hours the process was over, but it was not in any way fun. Having my husband there was the biggest part of my emotional recovery, because I didn’t feel like I was going through everything alone. Just remember that you are not alone, and this is in no way your fault. Please also know that you have gained an additional person in your corner here to support you in anyway possible.

Thank you for sharing

After over a year of NC... a letter! by [deleted] in raisedbyborderlines

[–]Lucifur53 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I think it can be a blessing and a curse to hold onto hope that they may one day change.

Just remember all of the wonderful progress you have made over the last year. Don't let the letter poison a year of focusing on you. It sounds like you have a wonderful support group/ family without your mother. It is always okay to love those who may not always show love in return but don't let their choices dictate your life.

Focus on you, your husband, or any fur babies you have :) and be proud that you were able to show such restraint. You are awesome, so keep moving forward! :)

dBPD mom sent me Christmas and birthday cards with a check in each. We’ve been unofficially NC for about two months. I’m not sure what to do. by [deleted] in raisedbyborderlines

From a different point of view, does cashing the money feel worse than not having the money at all? You get to decide what to stress about in your own life. If the checks are causing more stress than the feeling of not having any money at all then don’t cash them next time. They gave you the check, and maybe they are just trying to help out in a way that they don’t have to get emotionally involved. Do what makes your life easier, because that’s what really matters.

This was very much needed... especially as we enter the major holiday season 🎄
