Have you ever miscarried a child??

Yes I had 6 miscarriages before my son was finally born. No one could have ever wanted a child as badly as I did. At first I had no problems getting pregnant, but I could never go pass 2 months without a miscarriage. The Drs. could not find any medical reason for me to lose them. Then I finally made it to the 6th month with a little girl, which I lost, that one almost killed me physically and emotionally. They said it was a bad egg and her brain never fully developed. after he I never wanted to even take the chance of losing another baby. I had given up almost. Then I decided to try one more time. Well, by now scar tissue had set up and I could not get pregnant, that was another nightmare for years. My husband and I were going through a divorce or rather seperating because of all this. We were trying to make the marriage work, but there was so much strain. Durning our reconsilation period I got pregnant 2 weeks before we were to go sign papers for a divorce. In my city/state you can not get a divorce if you are pregnant until after the birth. So, I had a son who was 3 months premature, but he was alive! He is now 6'5" tall and 19! He was the most precious thing ever. He is my miracle child and I never understood why all the miscarriages and then not be able to get pregnant. It made a VERY strong person out of me. I thought I was strong before this, but I am much stronger now than I could have ever been. Oh and the marriage did not last, it ended when he was 10 months old.

I had one at 4 months when I was 19 and I have to agree with you. At the time it devestated me but I think that in the long run it was probably for the best. Now that I have children and see how much is involved in it; I'm not sure that I was at all ready to be a mother then. And like you, I was in a really bad relationship at the time. It was actually abuse that caused the miscarriage. I find that it still affects me today. It took place in November and now each Novemeber I have a tendency to become depressed but knowing the reason helps me to overcome it.

I personally have not. But, I have had close friends that it happened too. It is very devistating. I am so sorry that you had to go though all that unhappiness dear. I hope from now on you will only be blessed with peace and happiness.

I have never had a miscarriage but I would know what to do if it would ever happen. I have a little girl so i know I would have to be strong for her, but i know it would hurt me deeply.

I'm sorry for your loss. I'm glad to hear that it made you stronger. I have miscarried 4 babies. I don't think it has made me stronger though.

i dont thank god for me losing my child i lost my angel on jan 15 2006 it has been the hardes thingto ever happen in my life but i also realize as u say all things happen for a reason it wasnt tiem for me to be a mommy and now i have met an amazing man and will have kids with him when the time is right still not a day goes by that i dont missm y precious angel

Well, we need to remember thru everything we go thru God is in control, and even when we endure things such as a Miscarriage which you and I have both endured, we are better people because of it. Sounds like you have used this to your Best.

I have had two miscarraiges. The first one was when I was nineteen. I hadn't even known I was pregnant... I was raped and the rape caused the miscarraige. The second time was three years ago.

Yeah, that's the thing you should do always. BE STRONG! Never look back and only think about the positive future. I salute you for being brave and admit your mistake here infront of so many myLot members.

I have and there was no reason for it ...still can't understand why it happened...You have this little special baby inside and then its gone ...terrible feeling you almost feel guilty as if you have done something to make this happen I am glad you have left that horrible man what an butt head ...its people like him who make the human race seen to be evil... I am happy that you have decided to make yourself a stronger person because of him ...thats a great positive way to be ...growing and learning

Yes, I had one and it was a very scary situation. I didn't realize I was even pregnant and one morning I woke up about 2 am because I was soak and wet. I thought my water bed had sprung a leak. I grabbed some dry clothes and went to the bathroom. When I turned on the light and saw I was covered in blood, it totally freak me out. My sister in law rushed me to the hospital. I already had 2 kids and I didn't know I was pregnant, but I was still sad for a couple of months after.
