Miscarriagescan yesterday showed miscarriage, am totally distraught
I went for my 12 week scan yesterday and I have lost my baby. I was told to go home and if I haven't lost the baby by next Wed they will look at treatment. I am totally distraught. I was not expecting there to be any problems I have been feeling fine. I have cried non-stop since my scan. My husband is trying to be supportive but I just can't talk without bursting into tears. I have a 2 year old and I can't get the energy to play with her which I feel terrible for. I have 2 friends who have just had their 20week scans. I feel so jealous and angry I don't want to talk to them or hear about their babies. I just don't know how I'm going to get through it. I always thought miscarriages were awful but so early in pregnancy they weren't so terrible. But now I realise how earth shattering it is. I've not eaten or slept since I found out. I just don't know what to do. I feel like I'm just waiting to lose my baby and dread going to the toilet as I don't want it to happen even though I know its inevitable. I'm totally lost. Any advice really would be appreciated x
im really sorry for your loss, it is terrible. it must be very hard having friends who are pregnant and trying to be happy for them at this early stage, its unfortunayley very normal to feel like that though, give the lil one a big hug and try and get an early night it can be really draining, but try and stay positive about the future xxxx big hugs xxx

I'm so so sorry for your loss, its bad enough to find out that you have lost the baby without having to wait for things to happen as well, my heart goes out to you. I lost a baby 3 years ago at 15 weeks and the only way we got through it was by talking about her and allowing ourselves to grieve properly. You'll be in shock at the moment, so just take one day at a time.
Big hugs to you both you will get through this but it will take time xxx
Thanks for your kind words. I am calmer today but think it's shock and that when I start to lose the baby I will go back to square one. I'm frightened as the scan showed the baby stopped developing 3 weeks ago and so should have come away by now, the hospital said they would tell me my options when I go back next week. Has anyone experienced this? I don't know what to expect if I've not lost the baby by the time I go back to hospital. Im frightened
Hi, I can understand how you are feeling, its a terrible thing to go through. My baby's heart was failing and they gave us the option of either waiting to miscarry naturally or to have the pregnancy terminated and be induced. The thought of losing the baby at home and possibly on my own was the scariest thing imaginable so we chose to terminate.
I think they will probably offer you a surgical procedure which is done under general anaesthetic. I'm not sure if an alternative is to give you medication to try to make things happen naturally but then there would be a risk that if it didn't work you would have to have the procedure done anyway.
I know how scary it is but you will get through this, just keep talking to your husband and family and let them support you through it all. When you have got through this part then you can start to grieve properly and move forward xxxx
Im so sorry to hear about your loss.. its so disstressing. I've had two misscarrages in 5 months. ( one just last week) both around 6 to 7 weeks. Early I know. but its just when you start to get exited about the idea it goes wrong. Im finding it more difficult coz a lot of people around me at mo are falling pregnant, feel like the unlucky one. Its the next step that I really want, got my house, got married last year and its just seems at mo like im the last. fustrated :( just keep chatting to your partner, it helped me a lot. these forums have helped me to, just by reading other peoples experiences that your not alone in it :)
I lost the sac today and it frightened me so much I was sick. I'd been losing blood and clots and assumed it was breaking down inside not that it would come out whole. It was awful. I've been for another scan and they said everything has come away and no further treatment is needed just rest and time.
Happylowri I'm so sorry to hear you've been through it twice, it has hit me so hard I can't bear the thought of it happening again. You are right its nice to know you're not the only one but its awful so many have to go through it x
Oh I'm so sorry, what an awful thing to go through :-(((
Look after yourself, big hugs xxx
