Two weeks that made me go WTF

So last week I was on cloud nine because I had found out I was pregnant. Then on Friday I noticed some bleeding and pain. I spent that Saturday in the ER having a miscarriage. Now, I'm no longer pregnant. I'm not saddened or anything... it's just nature's way of resolving potential chromosomal issues or other abnormalities. But the care I received at the ob/gyn and the ER made me sick to my stomach. The ob/gyn was one of the coldest, most uncaring places. That's all...

what a rollercoaster. i'm sorry to hear about your ob/gyn experience, too.

You need a hug.
:hug:

I am so sorry that the people there were cold and non-supportive. You deserved caring and kindness.

I will send all healing and white light for you right now, and hope that there will be more good news for you very, very soon.

I am so sorry.

My mon had two miscarriages before I was born.

:hug:

Some docs see patients as numbers. When you do bump into the good ones they reeeally stand out though.

I hope your head is ok after the miscarriage. I love you.

I'm very sorry... for your loss and for the way your were treated

My first pregnancy ended in a miscarriage too.

:hug:

The majority of aborted embryos don't implant, so their bearers never even find out. You're right-- it simply wasn't meant to be. The embryo was most likely non-viable for some reason or another. That's a damned shame, but far more common than most people realize.

Best wishes to you and your partner. :hug:

I'm sorry for your loss and I'm sorry for how you were treated. :hug:

I think sometimes doctors are cold because if they become emotionally involved, they are miserable from all the pain and loss that they witness.

You may want to pen a short note to the public affairs department of the hospital and let them know what happened. Maybe then the next person will have a better experience. (I say public affairs because those employees understand the importance of image.)

Many years ago, I lost twins and one of my girlfriends matter-of-factly told me that my next child simply needed guardian angels. Maybe that's hokey, but it made me feel better (and within a year, I was pregnant again and had a healthy baby.) So, blessings to your little angel.

I wish you received better care. Some kindness and compassion would have been very nice.

I hope you're okay. Please be well. :hug:
