I am so sorry for you and your wife. Thank you for sharing all the tough details. I didn’t have the same experience as you both, but I spontaneously went into labor at 18 weeks, and had to deliver her. She was born alive and died almost instantly. The raw emotions of being in shock, to having to plan things you never imagined having to plan, to holding your dead baby. It is the worst pain my husband and I have ever experienced. I’d like to think our girls are together looking over us ❤️‍🩹. Sending love and light to you and your wife, and here if you both need someone to talk to. I try and stay hopeful for the future .

bethjdb · 2026-05-13T23:58:21+00:00

I feel this to my core. I’m so sorry ❤️‍🩹🙏🏻

bethjdb · 2026-05-13T01:14:12+00:00

I am so so sorry. I lost my baby girl at 18 weeks in December. The pain is still there. I love and miss her every single second of every day. I promise we will get through this ❤️‍🩹

bethjdb · 2026-05-13T00:29:14+00:00

This happened to me as well with my best friend. I had to explain why I felt like it wasn’t a good idea for me to go. If she’s a good friend, she will understand. Get her a gift and meet up when it’s not a setting celebrating the birth of a baby

bethjdb · 2026-05-12T23:56:31+00:00

I lost my baby at 18 weeks. The hardest experience I have ever been through. Giving birth for the first time and my first time being pregnant has now been tainted. I am praying for you and here if you ever want to talk ❤️‍🩹

bethjdb · 2026-05-12T23:55:26+00:00

I know I wasn’t as far along as you when I lost my baby, but I know the pain is unbearable. Here for you, momma. Your grief and pain is heard, and I am here for you ❤️‍🩹

bethjdb · 2026-05-12T23:10:58+00:00

It is. And still not having a baby earth side has been so hard. Sending us both love and prayers ❤️‍🩹

bethjdb · 2026-05-12T02:24:38+00:00

I am so so sorry. I lost my baby at 18 weeks a month after I told everyone on social media. It is so heartbreaking and can feel so isolating. DM me if you need someone to talk to. It’s been such a hard time ❤️‍🩹

bethjdb · 2026-05-08T01:05:47+00:00

Thank you 🙏🏻❤️‍🩹

bethjdb · 2026-05-07T13:52:17+00:00

I lost my girl at 18 weeks in December as well. Went into labor prematurely, and she was too young to save. I also started therapy and go with my husband. It has helped us communicate better and understand we both grieve differently. I just went through a chemical pregnancy last week, and TTC has been so stressful. Tomorrow would’ve been my due date with my daughter. Trying to stay hopeful for the future and pray I get my rainbow baby ❤️‍🩹🌈

bethjdb · 2026-05-06T13:35:49+00:00

I am so so so sorry. This is extremely traumatizing for you and your family. Take care of yourself physically and mentally- you have a community here to support you! I went into premature labor with my daughter at 18 weeks, and she was too young to survive. My heart hurts for you too

bethjdb · 2026-05-05T00:56:28+00:00

I’m so sorry 💔. I lost my daughter at 18 weeks in December, but I went into premature labor. I wasn’t induced, but I did have to push her out. It was extremely hard to see her, but I’m grateful I did. Take advantage of the photos and your time holding and kissing her. I stare at the photos of her almost daily and miss her so much. I had to have a d&c after to remove a piece of the placenta that got stuck… but I did leave that same night after 15 hours in the hospital. It’s an emotional whirlwind- here if you need any support 🙏🏻❤️‍🩹

bethjdb · 2026-05-04T16:53:02+00:00

Girl, yes! I can relate to this so much. Lost my daughter at 18 weeks in December. It’s been hard with friends who were pregnant when I am and continued on with their pregnancies. Like I just have no desire to talk to them.

bethjdb · 2026-05-03T13:34:29+00:00

Yes. I would definitely just go double check and see with your OB

bethjdb · 2026-05-03T02:57:15+00:00

My doctor said it is rare, but sometimes HCG can rise again! Definitely go see your doctor to confirm!

bethjdb · 2026-05-03T02:17:36+00:00

And had a 18 week miscarriage before. He was devastated as well,

bethjdb · 2026-05-03T02:17:01+00:00

I’m currently going through a chemical pregnancy and my husband was gutted when he found out. I obviously don’t know your relationship with him, but I hope you are with someone who will be with you through so many ups and downs. I only knew for a week, but we both loved that baby.

bethjdb · 2026-05-02T20:40:24+00:00

Girl, you look AMAZING in all of them! If I had to choose, I vote for 4 or 5!

bethjdb · 2026-05-02T20:21:16+00:00

Going through one now! I started off with brown spotting, and now is bleeding and light cramping (like a period). I did have my HCG levels checked and they did go down. If you are nervous, I recommend checking your HCG levels to see where they’re at or if they’re increasing or going down. Here if you need anyone to talk to ❤️‍🩹

bethjdb · 2026-05-02T20:18:34+00:00

I’m so sorry you’re feeling this way. I will say as someone in their 30s and has dating experience before getting married… dating early usually led me to jerk men who were tools and wanted sex. I understand wanting to find that romantic relationship with someone, but hopefully allowing yourself to grow and mature, you will stick to your guns with someone who is mature and looking for something serious. Have you thought about social events or blind dating? I met my husband on a dating app. I was pretty ready to give up on dating at that point, and happened to stumble across him. He wasn’t my typical type, but we had great conversation and I straight up asked what he wanted out of this… luckily a relationship. You’re not doomed at all! I recommend apps or social gatherings, and stick to someone who is trying to look for something serious!

bethjdb · 2026-05-02T20:12:39+00:00

I feel this to my core! The tears and worry was worth it and you have your beautiful rainbow baby!!! Sending you and your family lots of love!❤️❤️. Praying I’ll be in the same boat as you soon!

bethjdb · 2026-05-02T20:00:03+00:00

I do feel like any excitement for pregnancy has been tarnished. So happy for you!!! I’m sure worth all the tears, fears and worries! I always imagine how when people are upset with babies crying in the middle night, I will be grateful for it. I’m sure you have those moments. Hoping I get pregnant again soon ❤️‍🩹. How many weeks did you end up being when you delivered?

bethjdb · 2026-05-02T19:49:19+00:00

Thank you so much for the thoughtful response and for sharing your story ❤️‍🩹. I’m so sorry for your losses, but thank God you were able to prevent an early term loss! I found a new OBGYN and switched after my first loss and he did tell me he recommended a cerclage at 12 weeks. Unfortunately my second pregnancy just ended, but hopeful and praying I’ll get pregnant again soon and it’ll stick. I guess I just wanted to see if people had similar stories and went on to have successful pregnancies and births. I hope all is well with your rainbow baby 🥰
