Thread: 2nd trimester miscarriage

Hello,

I recently suffered a second trimester miscarriage. It was shocking and strange. It felt like walking on a moving Tilt-a-Whirl. The doctors told me it was uncommon. I delivered the baby but the placenta was retained. Again, they doctors told me it was uncommon. The reason our baby died was obvious: his umbilical cord was wrapped around his neck 3 complete times. Uncommon. So here's where I am: Please somebody tell me that I didn't win the completely uncommon and nobody else has ever had this happen to them jackpot.

I'm so sorry for your loss. My parents lost a full-term baby before they had me. He also had the cord wrapped around his neck and died a day after he was born. It is uncommon but it does happen unfortunately.

Hi, I also had a second trimester loss (at 15 weeks). There was no visible reason why she passed, she just did. I also had retained placenta but luckily it passed and I was ok.

I am so incredibly sorry for your loss. NOT that any one loss is worse than another, but when you pass that *scary* part of the first trimester and still have a loss, it just seems so much harder and so unfair.

Please know you are in my thoughts and my prayers

I am so sorry for your loss. There is no anwser and that is the hardest thing to understand. Do you have support groups in your area?

I am so sorry for your loss. You"re in my thoughts...

I suffered a 2nd trimester loss too. I was pregnant with identical twin boys. I was told my type of twin pregnancy isn't common at all, but when it does happen loss usually occurs. I am so sorry for your loss, no other words to say then it sucks. Just know that you did NOTHING to cause it. Keeping you in my prayers

I'm so sorry for your loss.....you didn't do anything wrong, it was just that angel's time...
