Hi, I'm new to the site. I found out by accident that I was pregnant on the 12th of Sep while visiting the dr for a UTI. He did a pregnancy test and it was positive. He also did a blood test that was positive. I have been having a terrible time with pain and migrains. Last night I spotted a bit. I went first thing this morning for a scan. I was told that it might be a BO as my sack still measures 5 weeks. I had a scan two weeks ago with another dr and he said I was 5 weeks. I can only hope and pray that the last scan was a mistake. My gynea has taken blood today and will again on Sun to see if there has been an increase in the hormone. I have to wait till Monday for the results. Even though this pregnancy was not planned, I was so excited. This will be my 3rd MC. I suppose I am luckier than most as |I have two beautiful daughters. One is 2 and the other 12.

{{{mommyb}}} I'm so sorry for what you are going through. I've had 2 losses myself, and no it's never easy even if you have other children. I had my second m/c when my oldest was 11 months old and having him around was a huge comfort. I hope you get good news on Monday, and please remember we're here for your regardless of what news you get.
Big hugs! Alexa

Now you heal emotionally and physically. I am so sorry for your loss. It will always hurt but not always this much. One day you will wake up and it will not be the first thing you think about and that will be ok. You also spend time taking care of you and not worrying about everyone else right now.
As for being afraid to try again. We all were but I am sure there is not one of us who wouldn't say that all the worrying and pain was worth it. You may be ready to TTC as soon as you physically can but you may also take longer. Each of us is different you will know when you are ready. I wish I had more words to help but know that we are here for you and we have all been where you are. ((((HUGS)))

mommyb- I am so sorry for your loss. What now? You grieve- grieve for the child you didn't get the chance to know, but loved all the same. You take time to heal- physically and emotionally. And when you are ready, find the courage to try again. It is scary, and many of us on this board know exactly how you feel. After my bo, I wasn't sure if I wanted to try again because I didn't think I could bear that pain if I got pregnant again and had another loss. In the end, my husband and I decided to leave it up to the Lord and see what happened. My doctor told me to wait two cycles, so we did. Three months later I discovered I was pregnant. And although I was happy, I was scared too. But now my daughter is 2 years old and a joy in my life. And this board will be here with loving, caring women who will help you through it all. I don't know I would have gotten through the months after my bo and the 9 months of the pregnancy without these women. Hugs and prayers to you!

I am so sorry for you loss. Give yourself time to grieve. No one can tell you when it will feel right to start TTCing. Most doctors will say wait a couple of cycles just to make sure your body is healthy but several women on this site have started TTCing right away. Do what feels right for you. TTCing, especially after a loss, can be frustrating and overwhelming. Many of us have been there and we will be here for you if you need us.
A few ideas other than to be patient and gentle with yourself is to drink red raspberry leaf tea. You can find it at most grocery stores that have a natural foods section. RRLT is a natural toner for reproductive organs so it will help your body restore itself physically while you work on dealing with your emotions.
Big hugs to you! Marisa
