I am so sorry for your loss! I know how you feel and that nothing anyone can say or do will make you feel better. I have had 4 miscarriages and 4 healthy children. The last one was 4 years ago and my husband and I were so excited because we thought those days were behind us and here we were, given another chance (he had a vasectomy that apparently did not work and we did not know for 10 years!). I was 22 weeks but the baby died shortly after my previous appointment, he was 19 weeks old. Eventually I found comfort in the fact that had he lived, his life would have been very short and painful. I was very irriated with my OB for doing the tests after they took him (I was getting toxic). What did I care,why didn't matter, I lost my baby. I now understand why it was so important to him that I know. I understand your frustration with your sisters, I think that's a natural reaction. When this happens you notice complete strangers pregnant and smoking or drinking and wondering what kind of a mother they are going to be and how unfair it is. Whatever child you eventually have either through birth or adoption will be the one you are supposed have and you will appreciate him/her all the more because of your loss.
