Pregnancy - As the World Turns

**DonnainME** · 10-13-2008, 07:27 AM

I am trying not to blame myself but that's hard. I do understand that losing Junior at 9 weeks gestation would probably be because he/she couldn't have survived outside - something major wrong. It just is hard - it just really SUCKS. I'm getting a little better every day.

I will do what I can to get and stay healthy. We will try again -maybe even using an ovulation predictor - I don't think I ovulate normally. I probably won't tell many people if we get pregnant again until 12 weeks. I am planning on making a scrapbook of the baby's u/s pictures. We decided to just call them Junior - we didn't find out the sex (too small to tell). I doubt the dr would have done that type of testing,

Thanks to all of you who care.

Donna, hoping that you can cope with this situation. It is very painful to go through a loss when you wanted something so much. I am sorry for you and hope that you will find it in yourself to cope with this. Life can be so difficult and painful sometimes.

rowdy - I'm doing what I can. it's very hard and there is alot of crying in my house right now. We have been MAJOR lazy today - haven't done hardly anything. I just wanna wake up from this dream - but it's not a dream - it's real. I am supposed to go to counseling tomorrow. If I can get up, I will. I know it's gonna be a BAD/HARD session.

I'm so sorry to hear about your loss. I had an early miscarriage with my first pregnancy, and I understand the hurt.

Donna, I am so sorry to hear about this. My best wishes go out to you and your family right now to help you through this tough time.

Donna, your in my thoughts and prayers. I know this is a hard time for you. Today was the first time in a month I had checked on this thread. Been so wrapped up in my own troubles. I'm here to chat if you ever need a shoulder.

Cmdarlin - thanks. I'm getting better every day. I'm just going on as I can. Sometimes I get upset and just try to stop and take care of myself. I still need to buy the stuff for a scrap book for the baby. We are going to try again in a couple of months.

I am taking some time and doing my business slow - I am picking it up some now though. It's been 2 weeks now since the miscarriage. I did a few deliveries today. I also set up 2 "shows" - they are actually tables that I am going to "rent" during indoor garage sale or craft show. One will be on the 1st of Nov and the other will be on the 8th. I hope to sell some and maybe get some orders.

DH just found out that he is only going to be working 2 days per week and then will be layed off until Spring soon. We don't know if he can get unemployment. He started working there on 9/24. This was his 5th week working. A friend said that as long as someone works 6 weeks, they qualify. I'm not sure but he will work until they do lay him off. I hope that my business does pick up and is able to pay for bills.

Anyway, thanks for everyone's concern.
