a good friend of mine had IVF done. She was implanted with 3 eggs. 2 survived. She started bleeding around 6 wks. she foes in for u/s 2x a wk. she has a blood clot and she is bleeding and passing clots. her last u/s on 2/22, she found out that baby B died. the baby was pushed off the wall by the clot. Baby A is still ok.
Im going to see her after work and I just want to know what I should say / do to her. I was in tears when she told me. and I just don't know how to act in front of her. I don't want to only talk about her loss, but is that what I should do? I'm 19 wks preg right now, and I feel bad going to see her with my big belly showing..even though she still has Baby A, I feel guilty for having a healthy pregnancy.
I just want her to know I care and I just want to say the right thing and not upset her even more...please help me know what to say to someone that has had a m/c. sorry for sound ignorant, but I just never had to face such a tragedy before.
Thank you.View Thread

Thank you for making me feel better about being pregnant. My biggest worry is she will look at me and 'hate' that everything is going well for my pregnancy. I don't want to make anyone feel uncomfortable around me.
Have a good weekend!View Thread

Be strong and don't blame your self. These things just happen. You will have your baby back in your arms one day. Until then, stay strong and be happy. Your son would want you to start to move on. love urself!!
--im not sure if you wanted to hear my story, but I never told it on this site before. just want to let you know, your not alone. I know I didn't lose this baby, but my sister in law did, and it affected all of us. Family is there for you. you just need to reach out!View Thread
