One was at 15 weeks & was very much like a delivery- water broke on it's own, we were able to hold our tiny baby, & the midwife cut the cord since the placenta didn't deliver for several hours. Most Dr.s would have considered me too far along to miscarry at home, but it was such a tender & private experience. After seeing my baby whole & holding him, it's so disturbing to think of a D&C.<br /><br />We had him cremated & cherish that we were able to see him.<br /><br />If I had another miscarriage, I might choose a hospital so we can have the tissue tested since that would be our 3rd loss, but I am so grateful for the tender experience of having & holding that baby at home. I'd encourage other mothers to wait & let their body release the pregnancy naturally. Unless you have a reason for intervention (infection, history of hemorage, etc.), it is easier on your body to do what it's designed to do.Lempskieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01713147936630756799noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3747048062422758306.post-59879631320500379982010-05-01T19:19:39.341-07:002010-05-01T19:19:39.341-07:00I'm not quite sure how I surfed onto your blog...I'm not quite sure how I surfed onto your blog, but I'm glad I did. Thank you for this post. I've been struggling to explain how I feel after miscarrying, and this post pretty much sums it up. Hopefully, I'll get my happy ending (baby) soon!Michellesayshihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08933276890294272333noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3747048062422758306.post-92061520888450620052009-10-09T08:22:30.714-07:002009-10-09T08:22:30.714-07:00You're welcome, Jessica!
