Unhappy Overweight, No Longer Pregnant

Well, I am pretty sad to report that I had a miscarriage. I went to the ER last Tuesday and they said that they're pretty sure I had a blighted ovum. A blighted ovum means that the fertilized egg attached like it was supposed to and all but something happened along the way where it stopped developing properly. It re-absorbs into the uterine lining and leaves behind the placenta and empty sac. I'm pretty torn up about it but it's getting easier everyday. I go this Friday to confirm everything that the ER told me and make sure everything left me okay.

For those of you who remember me posting when I found out I was pregnant and asking advice about me and my guy. We had a lot of ups and downs since I had found out. We were going to even stop talking unless it was regarding the baby but things are going a lot better now. He was very supportive through the whole miscarriage and we're working on having a better relationship.

Finally, I posted here about this because I am going to try as best as I can to start living "normal" again. I am bound and determined to lose this weight before I get pregnant again and I am going to try to use this forum again to help motivate me.

I want to thank everyone here who is very supportive in everyone's endeavors to lose the weight and keep it off. Together we can all do this!

Yes, I remember you and I am so sorry to hear about this. I've never experienced it so I am a bit at a loss for words. But I will definitely keep you in my thoughts.

Aww Sarah I'm so sorry to hear this. That's what I ended up having last August when I miscarried. Please take care of yourself and don't try to overdo it on the exercise like I did.

Oh, honey, that's the hardest.
Sometimes, things just aren't meant to be.
Having been there once - losing a baby in a rocky relationship, make sure that the next time you are sure about him, so that the hormones have a safe place.
My husband is the greatest dad in the world, and I'm so glad I've raised my daughter with a partner who's there for both of us.

I too have miscarried and it's very difficult but time does help, although I still remember it on the day every year and it's been 13 years ago. I wondered at the time "why?" but I soon knew why and that helped me resolve everything. I believe that things do happen for a reason.

Take care and someday things will work out differently.

Sorry for your loss, Sarah. I can't have children, so I won't pretend to know how you feel, but I can imagine.
