I am not sure how many of you I told that my sisiter in law and brother were expecting their third child.....
anyways.. here is an update.

i spent the whole saturday afternoon in the Emergency Room holding my sister in laws hand.... she had started spotting, had a few cramps but nothing severe....My brother took her to the hospital and they did a pelvic and blood work... they told her what she already knew... she was bleeding. and sent her home. No ultrasound was performed.
She came to my house saturday afternoon, she soon left and then came back bawling.... she called her dr and he wanted her to go back to the ER, he was upset that they didnt do an ultrasound. By this time my brother was at work... shes asked me to take her... she didnt want to go through it alone.. I couldnt let her anyways. She miscarried another child jut a little over 1 year ago, alone.

So to the Hospital we went. We sat and sat and sat.
Finally they took her back for the ultrasound, i went in with her...although she was only 9 weeks along ( about that far) it was hard to tell what we were looking at. However he typed across the screen NO FETAL HMD . Then htey did the ultrasound where they go inside... i had to leave the room for this.

We went back to the room where we sat and sat and sat again.... soon the DR came in. I never thought that I could feel sooo bad for someone..I have never experienced the loss of a child... god help me that I never do. All i could do is hold her as she cried..... of course I was crying too... That was my neice or nephew.

She went to the ob/gyn on monday.... she was scheduled for a DNC on Thursday.... She came by last night to tell me that the baby was in the freezer. The only good thing about this is, the baby was big enough that they can test it to see what went wrong.

I am soo sad for her... any thoughts or prayers would be wonderful

Hello! I am so sorry for your loss. I lost a child(my first) in about the very same way. I am glad you were with her. I had no one at my side so many years ago. I had a D&C done the very night I miscarried. I had been bleeding for a few days by then. The pain was just intolerable.

I asked the Dr. if he knew why I had miscarried. His answer was that often...if there is something wrong with the fetus...the body will reject it...and self abort.

Has anyone else here ever heard of this?

Wondering...still!

as the dr told her in the hospital... it is naturals way...
sometimes when something is wrong with the fetus, your body knows and it miscarries
