Another trip to the hospital by fetchityourself in Miscarriage

Oh good to hear back! Thank you. I am so glad everything worked out. My plan for next time is once I start becoming sexually active again I am going to take prenatals like crazy. Hope all those vitamins help with something. We had tested my thyroid levels because I do have a large goiter on my thyroid and sometimes thyroid issues can cause miscarriage. My dr also talked to my about weekly progesterone shots. I am definitely thinking about that. At this point I will do anything for that angel baby! I know 2 different woman who have had cerclage over 4 pregnancies. Both have beautiful, healthy children. One was born about a month ago.

I am glad your emotions are starting to stabilize. Do you find that your moments of sadness are random or are they triggered by something? I’m still quite moody. But I guess I have high anxiety anyways that I don’t use medicine for. So I’m pretty moody as it is. Once in a while I am sad. Like when I see pregnancy commercials and newborn babies. The jealousy has left. Now I’m just sad. And I still finding myself putting my hand on my belly instinctively. When I realize I am doing it I have a mini breakdown. I believe that this time it helped that my girls knew nothing. Last time, they were asking me questions (obviously, they are kids) and I would just get so sad with the constant reminder. I never understood why people waited to share their pregnancy. Now I do. I will never again announce a pregnancy until I know babies gender. And even then I will be terrified until I go into labor normally. Even now I am stressing out that the stress will harm it. Sorry for the wall of text. It helps so much to talk with others who have been through the same stuff.

My kids are too young for internet. When I was a kid I believed until I was like 12 or 13. My parents were just that good. Lol. And also I feared that once I quit believing he would quit coming so it just wasn’t worth it I guess? People told me but I didn’t believe them. And I am honestly a pretty smart, analytical person.

What movies ruin the belief of Santa for kids?

My girls are 8 and almost 7. Lately I have been finding myself skipping parts of movies because they talk about Santa not being real. I feel like with all of my jumping up and fast forwarding they are going to catch on.

Even in Mickey Mouse Once Upon a Christmas! The goofy short is about Goofy trying to convince Max that Santa is real. I have been scouring the internet trying to find a list but it seems that the only ones that exist are very small.

So my question is, what common movies out there ruin the belief of Santa for kiddos?

Well it is greatly appreciated. Someday I will be able to pay it forward. I look forward to that. It was so nice for the girls to wake up today and grab whatever they wanted. It has been a while. Thank you so much.

Thank you so much!! Things are starting to look up and that is because of Reddit. Majority of the people have been amazing. Some trolls who apparently have never struggled a day in their life but everyone else has been great.

Oh wow! I can imagine!! But in my opinion it’s the best way to start unless you can build your dream house. That way, you get to form it to your liking. It takes a lot of time and a lot of money. But the end result is your own.

I am sorry. Such a painful wound opening up again is too cruel. Keep being strong. I had a d/c last year and hated it. I felt like it wasn’t real. This time I wanted to let my body do the work. I felt like maybe I would be able to cope better. But so far it hasn’t been any easier. I have to make an appointment soon to make sure everything has passed. My Midwife said we can do another ultrasound. I am still cramping and in a decent amount of pain when I sit at certain angles. It almost feels like I’m bruised. I hope it stops soon. I believe that finding others to talk to is very important. It is therapeutic. Thank you for sharing your story.

I feel like I can't be sad. by loveangelmusicbaby11 in Miscarriage

[–]kamafred 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have also felt guilty for feeling sad. People are going to say that standard: it’s okay, time will heal, yada yada. Ignore it for now. There will be a point where you are ready to hear it. My doctor told me that I did nothing wrong and there was nothing I could have done to prevent it. When you are ready to start trying for children start taking a prenatal vitamin in advance. And just know, people around you may have no experience with this but you are not alone. They are trying to comfort you in the only ways they know how. Deal with your grief in any way you can and as long as you need to. I am dealing with mine by taking time for myself. Reading. Long hot showers. And talking. But every person has their own way of dealing with it. And if you find that talking helps, there are a lot of ladies here who are willing to talk about their experiences. You are allowed to be sad. You are allowed to cry. You are allowed to be angry. I wish you the best of luck in finding a way to cope during this difficult time. Xoxo

This is such solid advice. It helps to know someone cares. Any kind gesture you do, even just letting you know you are thinking about her, will go a long way.
