Guest guest Posted May 24, 2004 Report Share Posted May 24, 2004 I'm sorry for your loss. My 2 previous pregnancies were MC's and I know how heartbreaking it can be. The docs said it was because my hormones in the pregnancy were not good or that something was not right with the baby, either way was still heartbreaking. I will have you in my prayers.

Guest guest Posted May 24, 2004 Report Share Posted May 24, 2004 Hi Jackie, I am so sorry . When I had my miscarriage I went ahead and waited for it to pass the Dr did warn me it could take up to a Month. It took a week.. But it was a very hard week for me, I heard awful things about D&C's that is why I chose not to mostly I was afraid of the pain. I am still not sure if I would of opted for the D&C as hard as it was to wait . You just have to make sure everything passes if you do choose to let it pass on it's own. Take care of your self and my thoughts are with you. Jenni Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 25, 2004 Report Share Posted May 25, 2004 Jackie, It's such a sad time for you. I've never been through a m/c or loss of pregnancy, but I am sure it's emotionally devastating. You are right, the Lord knows what He's doing, even if we don't see the reasoning. It's not up to us to question why, just to go on. Medically speaking as an RN, I think although they can't pinpoint the cause of miscarriages, I think it's b/c *something* isn't quite right with the pregnancy and rather than carry a baby to term with major problems, if it even survived, the body/nature and the good Lord take it early. Since I've not experienced a m/c, I think I would rather wait and let nature take its course. I'm certain it's just a matter of personal preference. Some just want to be asleep and not see anything, others have a sense of " closure " in seeing something tangible. My thoughts and prayers are with you. God bless you.
