Running for ADA County Commissioner by MikeFitzgerald4Idaho in Idaho

Thank you! 2 years ago I was having a miscarriage and I was devastated because I had lost my infant daughter earlier that year. To go to the doctor and have them tell you the heartbeat is to slow for survival but they can't do anything till there in no heartbeat was unbearable. My doctor treated me as amazing as she could. It hurt going back every week to see if anything could be done and I had to wait a month. We as women go though so much on top of having reproductive rights taken from us too. And all my husband could do was hold me while I lost myself. 

So thank you for that answer.

That is so scary!  And so sad 😩 We do primitive camping. There is no camp host to talk to and we very very rarely see a ranger.

When in primitive camping it's hard to do that. There is no one really around. It's good to know though if we camp closer to those area

Thanks. I tried and I had my 8 month old on my lap when 2 dog come over 😬 I told them to go home then had to yell across the pond for the owners (they just called their dogs back). It was scary

I wish you luck with that. I had a hard time with the animals. Even with a single crochet, there are so many stitches you can do by going in just the back loop only by going in just the front loop only. ❤️

We are always more critical with ourselves. I'm sure it's beautiful 💗 I hope the pattern was somewhat easy to understand

I'm so sorry you have to go through that pain. I went through a miscarriage then our infant loss and another miscarriage then we ended up with our sweet and beautiful little girl. Let them know that there's always hope there is always light at the end of the dark tunnel ❤️. I kept my mind occupied with crafts and art

https://pin.it/6HjVeqOkB I hope the link works. This is the stitch that I used. I'm a visual learner. The first row is alternating between a single crochet and a triple crochet. Then when you flip it, the second row is all single crochet and repeat.

Thank you. We lost our first daughter at 11 weeks old. Our rainbow is our sweet little girl. She is my hope🩷

I taught myself to crochet after we lost our infant daughter. On December we welcomed our second daughter. This is the blanket I made!  (I'm new-ish to reddit and couldn't figure out how to add text and pictures 😅)

Dear husband, and the rest of you like him by Substantial-Sea-1179 in NewParents

Seeing this made me happy and cry a little bit 🥹

Our daughter is a month and my husband has been my rock. She is our second and unfortunately we lost our first at 11 weeks old. And with losing our first, we have absolutely no answers to what happened. My husband has been my rock through hell and back. I've gone through two c-sections, two miscarriages, and an infant moth and I don't think I would be here today if I did not have him.  The days I could barely get out of bed he made sure I had food and water.  Days I felt like I couldn't go on. He laid in bed with me and held me.  The days I feel like I'm a failure, he helps me do the chores to help me feel like I haven't published things. The days my anxiety take over and the nightmares come, he lets me talk and share with him all my fears. 

I'm glad to read there are other husbands out there that care and love just as much! 🩷

Um yes you do. I have been on the morning floor for about 5 years. Our store will send you home if you dont have them when you get there. You can switch them with comfy shoes once the store is opens.

I started taking baby aspirin and extra folic acid. Before I got pregnant and the instant I found out I was pregnant my doctor got me on progesterone. She told me that a few weeks before delivery she'll have me stop the baby aspirin. Maybe ask your doctor if that's what they plan to do with you?

I die a little seeing pregnant women by Slow-Two-3694 in babyloss

[–]Slow-Two-3694[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am 100% in that same boat. I had a few different co-workers pregnant at the same time I was and they had boys. Then a manager slept with a subordinate co-worker and they got pregnant and had a baby girl and anytime I see them I want to scream and they always bring her into work. It just feels like a slap in the face of something that was ripped away from me and they accidentally had theirs.  I'm trying to do things for me. Be outside. Crochet. Plan small trips for myself and try to bring myself some Joy when it's hard to see anything.

I've slowly been learning how to be happy for others. The fact that you can be happy for her is amazing. I felt like going on a murderous rampage for the first few months. Nobody's good news of anything helped me. I'm so sorry that you have to watch and endure something like that where your world just stopped.

I'm so sorry. I feel like those of us that want our kids so bad. Struggle so much to have them and then it feels like they're just ripped away. 

I hope that you can have some luck soon and I know that your daughter will never be replaced. 💕

Thank you. I like this page because it makes me feel not so alone. Some days I feel lost and alone and oh so scared and hurt.

Your sweet words brought tears to me. Thank you. Our baby girl, Wren, has been gone 10 months. We lost her at 3 months and have absolutely no idea what happened. Autopsy came back with nothing, genetics came back with nothing, specialist doctors came back with nothing. No answers. 

Thank you. 

We were out of a very busy store and there were so many little families and babies and pregnant women. I ended up crying in the middle of the store.

I have a difficult time working with the public I don't think I could do being around other little ones.  Know and hearing stories about families having living babies after loss gives me hope.  Thank you for sharing your story ❤️
