Hi my name is Jill. I was 9 1/2 weeks
pregnant with my first child until 2 days
ago. I had a miscarriage. I was in the
hospital due to extreme pain and bleeding
and i had passed the fetus. It actually
fell out onto the floor. I somewhat went
hysterical when I saw it. I've accepted
that I lost the baby but I cannot get past
SEEING the fetus laying on the ground. Is
there anyone who has any suggestions of
what I can do to get past that? Thanks,
Jill

talk to a therapist.
the hospital will be able to put you in
touch with someone.
you would not have seen a fetus lying on
the floor at 9 1/2 weeks.
at that time it is only about an inch
long.
it is more likely that you passed some
tissue and assumed it to be the fetus.

I guess I worded it incorrectly. I didnt
actually see the fetus itself but the sac
containing it. It WAS verified by the OB
that that's what it was. I just want to
get past the image of it, even the sound
of it hitting the floor. It was
just..........disturbing. I knew I was
losing the baby, i just didnt want to see
that. u know?

I know how you feel. I was about 8 weeks
when i lost my baby. Its very disturbing.
I was at the obgyn getting an ultrasound
and the doctor said that he could no
longer see the baby. They had to put pills
in my cervix which made everything come
out and at that time i did see parts of
the sack. I think im time everything will
get better. But thats how i look at it. If
you need to talk feel free to pm me. Once
again im very sorry for your loss as well.

It is very difficult to let go of that
moment. I had a miscarriage around 8
weeks and the sac, although quite small,
fell out while I was in the shower (around
a week after the bleeding began). I still
think about this and I know from
experience that this makes the already
unfortunate circumstance all the more
traumatic. It is so difficult but it
really will get easier. Just talk to
people, don't keep it to yourself... it
truly does help. I got pregnant a few
months after my miscarriage and now I have
a beautiful son. Having him now and
appreciating my life for how it is also
helps. Sometimes bad things happen, but
often good things will follow. Give it
time. I hope this helps.
