• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

We were on depo-provera, and this wasn't supposed to happen.

I had a feeling something was wrong, as I felt a little crampy and my chest felt heavy. So I did a home pregnancy test, and it came up pregnant. So I rushed out and got a different one just to check. It too, said pregnant.

We were happy with just two kids, and didn't really want a third, but there it was and it wasn't going away. So I embraced the idea, and discussed it with the hubby and he came around to being happy about it like I was. Went for my first OB appointment, and everything seemed like it was going well. Started Prenatal vitamins, and all that. Changed the diet and the doctor said I was about 7 weeks along. That was about two weeks ago.

This morning I went in for my early pregnancy ultrasound, and I hadn't been feeling well this weekend. The nurse started to do the ultrasound and noticed a little spotting, so she sent me down to have some bloodwork and everything. My OB came to the hospital, and let me know that my levels were dropping, which meant I had miscarried sometime over the weekend. He said I wouldn't have been able to tell because I was not very far along. He gave me a tight hug and let me cry a bit on his shoulder and he scheduled me to see him in his office on Wednesday. He said that My body would return to normal in a few days.

My heart won't though. And even though it was unexpected, and I wasn't ready for it... I was still happy about it and ready to love another child. I am filled with sorrow right now, and I feel like I can't talk to anyone about it. I am thankful for the two beautiful boys I have, and I feel so blessed, but the loss is really hitting me. I just want to crawl away.

September 9 will be a year since my D&C I was 10wks at the time they found an empty sac on ultrasound.:(
I was DX with depression due to hormonal changes shortly after and required Zoloft to get me back on my feet for about six weeks. Dont be afraid to let your doctor know if things arent getting better for you emotionally. :prayer: Praying for you my, heart breaks with you.
