I think its great she's talking about it. I almost feel like i'm part of a little club that only "we" would know how it really feels. every time i hear about someone's miscarriage or have to explain how i was able to wait 2 months before telling ppl i was pregnant its like reliving those emotions all over again. its something i don't think you ever fully get over. these were emotions i've never felt in my life. and i just could not process them.
we all blame ourselves. i blamed myself for sure. but now i know there's nothing i could have done. sometimes your body rejects it because its just not right.
the only thing about this article that irks me is that she miscarried at 6 weeks. and the doctor called her and told her it would have been a girl. really? here i am at 14 weeks and i don't know. i won't know till 18 weeks. so that kind of irked me a little. i think its too early for them to have known. but maybe i don't know all the medical details. she did have to have a d&c where as i just bled it out. so maybe its different.
but my heart goes out to her and any women who's been through a MC at any stage. my heart especially breaks for those who lost their baby after the first 12 weeks. i can't even imagine.
and my heart goes out to all of you still TTC with one let down after another. i know how that feels. it takes its toll. it helps sometimes to take a little break and then go back to it. just for sanity's sake. i know you guys will get your BFP one day. and when you do, that baby will be so incredibly lucky to have a mommy that wanted it that much and worked so hard to get it. no matter how you get that BFP doesn't matter, what matters is the baby that comes with it. so don't ever let anyone make you feel like you're "trying too hard" or "not doing it in a natural way". they don't get it.
big hugs for all,

It is super tough :( I'm glad more and more women are speaking out about miscarriage. There is such a stigma and so many people feel so alone. I know it helped me to know other's that had gone through a similar loss.
Maybe the doctor did some genetic testing on the fetal tissue after the DNC and that is how they were able to tell the gender?
