I was pregnant with twins until just recently. I saw both babies via u/s at 15 weeks. At 17.5 weeks I went for another u/s and we could only see 1 baby. We also saw another collapsed sac with a "membrane" inside. I go for my scheduled Level II u/s this Thursday. I have a toddler, so DH wasn't able to go to any of my u/s appointments b/c he was keeping DS. He went to the last one in hopes of seeing the babies.
I'm pretty busy all day and usually take time at night to think about my pregnancy. I've been feeling fine until I go to bed at night...then I start to get upset and do a lot of crying. I feel so awkward b/c I haven't passed anything, or had cramps, or even a strange feeling that the baby wasn't there. I even feel a little strange posting here b/c even though I've had a loss I'm still pregnant. I feel a little guilty about being happy that I'm still pregnant. Sometimes I find it hard to grasp the fact that one of my babies are gone. I saw a baby moving, with a good strong heartbeat, and now it's just gone.
I try to talk to DH, but I can't right now. I need to give it a little time. He hugs me and holds me and tells me that we'll be okay, but I really haven't sat down to talk to him about it w/o crying. Thanks for listening and letting me get out what I have to say.

I am so sorry for what you are going through. Losing a baby is one of the most difficult things a woman can go through, and the fact that you are still expecting one little miracle doesn't override the hurt and pain that goes along with losing a baby. You suffered a loss, just like the rest of us, and its okay for you to cry and mourn your baby.
I understand about it not really hitting home yet. I knew I had lost my baby for a few days before I actually experienced the m/c, and until the actual event, it was hard for me to believe my baby was gone- I was hoping it was all a dream.
Just like it's okay to cry and mourn the baby you lost, its also perfectly normal to be happy and excited for the baby yet to come. Although I know just saying this won't make the feeling go away, you don't need to feel guilty for your happiness.

I'm so sorry for your loss...and that emotional tug of war you're going through. I know for a fact the numbness and the shock wear off eventually, and thats when you and hubby will really be there for eachother...so for now just try to take care of you and your baby and know that your little angel is watching over you both...take care...
(((Hugs)))
Your feelings are all quite normal. This is an emotional time where you don't know what's up or down. You will grieve for the baby you lost but can still be very happy for the baby you have.
It was much earlier, aprox. 8 weeks, that I lost one triplet and even now I still miss that little one and imagine 3 babies instead of two playing in the living room.
You may not pass anything. It is possible for the baby to be simply readsorbed. I don't know if this is better or worse than actually passing something but it can certainly happen

Chastity, I saw the title of this thread and I thought "No... no... oh no." I am so sad for you Allow yourself to grieve the baby you lost. Allow yourself to be happy for the baby you still have. Don't feel guilty to be happy that you still have one of them. Any loss is devastating, and having another doesn't take that pain away.
You are in my thoughts,
Adrianne
