I know this is a place for politics, memes, racism, and whatever. But I feel this is warranted given that the white race is dwindling and that we so desperately want to have many kids.
Husband and I were excited to soon publicly announce our pregnancy. I was about ten weeks along. Went in for my first prenatal appointment and then scheduled and ultrasound. Before I could even get that ultrasound, I started bleeding. Went to the ER to find out I had miscarried.
We’re, of course, devastated. This was our first pregnancy (as we’ve been patiently trying for a while). Apart from the physical and emotional pain, I think we’re also very discouraged. Ready to try again when possible, but also praying for a better outcome, hoping that this was just part of the high miscarriage statistics within the first trimester and nothing to do with fertility.
So, I’m just asking for any prayer, encouragement, advice, etc. as we navigate this grief and move on to trying again.
Thank you, ConPro.
I learned from her that giving your body rest and grace is very important,. Even when she was physically cleared to get pregnant, she wasn't emotionally ready to try again right away after a loss and the months where she had negative tests really weighed on her.
I've heard from other family members that this is a common occurrence, more common than we think until we go through it or actually talk to others about it.
You'll be in my prayers, may God grant you peace of mind and heart and blessings on your little one and your future children.
Thank you for your prayers.
In the Scottish population, women who conceive within six months of an initial miscarriage have the best outcomes and lowest complication rates in their subsequent pregnancy.
