Mc threads on the bump

i've notice consistently the most 'viewed' posts are the ones titled 'not looking so good' or 'goodbye' or 'bad news' or 'ive been bleeding for xxx hours'. 

bunch of schadenfreuders over there. 

Re: Mc threads on the bump

  • yeah- i wouldn't open those because they scared the ish out of me.  i was already paranoid enough when it came to the kiddo because of my high risk tendencies, i didn't need help from the bump making me freak out more.

  • oh yes, i have learned there are many many many more ways humans and not-yet humans can die since this experience.  

  • Confession - I am addicted to those posts.  When I was PG for that hot minute in June, I tried not to read them because I was so scared.  Then after I miscarried, it was like watching a train wreck.  I post a bit on TTCAL since they tend to be more encouraging and positive (and I am TTCAL), but being on the MC/Loss board was far too depressing even when I was going through it myself.  I haven't even lurked on that board since the end of June. I basically did my intro and never posted again.  I felt like I needed to tell someone, since we kept everything on the DL (and everything still is on the DL IRL).

  • i click on every one. 

    i'm sorry about your mc and good luck ttc!!!

  • When I was on TB I would click on them too. Mostly because after my first loss, it was good for me to have a "support group" of other people who went through it. When I was pregnant with Andrew, I was bleeding pretty bad at 8 weeks and thought that was over too, but he turned out to be fine, so I would post to give a little hope to the women there, that yes sometimes it can be bad (first time) but other times it can be placenta previa or something else. :-( Feel so bad for all the women that have to deal with the loss.
