Our Baby Is Gone.

Monday night I began miscarrying. Mr. Curry took me to the ER. After an hour or two I
birthed our baby. My body wouldn't stop bleeding. I lost too much blood. I had surgery.
I had a blood transfusion. I am home. Our family is is mourning.
My little baby had
passed away a week ago apparently. There was nothing anyone could do.

I am so sorry :)

Jenny Grace said...

Oh my darling I am SO sorry.

Sending you big, sloppy, internet hugs. Please let me know if there's anything I can do?

Oh, Maggie, I am so sorry. Hugs and prayers for you right now.

I'm so sorry.

Rachael said...

So, so sorry for your loss.

Laura said...

Oh Maggie... I am so so sorry. I know how you feel right now. I had a miscarriage last summer. My sister had one a few weeks after me. I couldn't imagine feeling any more sadness and I felt like no one understood or could relate. No one really talks about their miscarriages and I had no idea the feeling of loss that would come with it. I spent hours and hours online finding other woman who had gone through the same thing and reading their stories. Somehow that helped me. Your body can have actual feelings of postpartum depression, and mine certainly did. Just remember that it will get better, you will feel the weight lift, and its okay to take as much time as you need to grieve. I barely know you, but I am crying right now for you, just remembering the pain that I felt when I went through this such a short time ago. I am so sorry. My thoughts will be with you and your family.

i never understood the pain of miscarriage until i experienced it myself. even then, the pain was barely understandable. :.(

Kate Moore said...

Like everyone else here, there's so little I can do, can say, but sorry. My heart sinks for you and yours, for plans, for people and places and ideas and lives and living that will not happen - but will still happen, if that makes sense. Grieve and write and cook and hold and cry and be and read and live. Lots of love.

Pam said...

so so sorry on the death of your baby, a huge sadness for you and your whole family....

Ms. Moon said...

Oh Maggie. Oh Maggie. Oh no.
I want to wrap my arms around you. I want to say, "I know, I know." I want to make you rice pudding and I want to bring you flowers. I want to say that somehow something was worked out in a cosmic way.
I want to put my hand on your belly and say, "I am sorry. Someone lived here. The pain is evidence of this."
I want to tell you I am glad you are alive.

krista said...

Annie said...

Maggie, I'm so sorry. I'm in tears for you and your family. Please, take care of yourself. Give yourself time, and love.

Sandi said...

Maggie- My heart is breaking for all of you. I know how loved and wanted this little baby was.

I miscarried my first baby at seventeen weeks. It was horrible. In the past two years we have lost three pregnancies that never made it past six weeks. The first one was worse than any of the others. I think having seen and felt that baby move, it was so much more real.

I wish there was something I could say to make you feel better. Huge Hugs Maggie May. I will sit here and cry with you.

Unknown said...

Oh nooooooo! I'm so sorry. I don't know how I would deal with such a thing, strength and love is being sent your way!

Lola said...

I don't have any words to help you feel better, so I'll just say I'm truly sorry for you and your family and that I know the sadness.

Take care, my friend.

steenky bee said...

Maggie, no! Oh, sweetie, I am so so very sorry to hear this. I've been MIA (again) for a while and just now is the first time I looked over my reader in over three weeks. I saw this post. Oh my God. I'm so glad I looked through my reader. There are no words that anyone can say that will take away your pain. I'll be thinking of you and your family tonight.

Oh Maggie...
I have no words to express how my heart aches for you and your family. I don't pretend to know what or how to deal with the trauma that you may be experiencing through your body and soul. Know that there is love all around you and many positive thoughts coming your way.

nfmgirl said...

I am soooo sorry for your loss. Nothing but good thoughts are coming your way.

Lacey said...

What? I am... in disbelief. And I am so, so, so sorry for your loss. And I've been sitting here staring at the screen for five minutes trying to come up with something, anything, better to say than "miscarriages suck." But... miscarriages suck. Please let me know if there's anything I can do.

Riley said...

I will keep you and your family in my prayers. I am so sorry that happened. When I was younger one of my friends had a miscarriage, it was one of the most trying things in her life

Elizabeth said...

Oh, no. I'm so sorry. I read somewhere that miscarriage is the only death where one receives no flowers. I send you flowers, bunches of them.

Maggie, I am so very sorry. I couldn't believe the title of this post. This is the worst kind of hurt, frustration, helplessness. Thinking of you with love and warmth. I hope you can keep your beautiful family in your heart while you take your time and heal.

Evangeline said...

I am so very sorry Maggie.

DKC said...

Oh, darling. I am so, so very, very sorry. One thing I found after having my miscarriages - it's amazing how many women deal with it, and how few talk about it. That would be my advice - talk about it. It's painful, heartbreaking and you have every right to mourn for as long as you need.

Sending good thoughts your way.

Bee said...

I know you wanted this baby so much; I'm so sorry for you and your family.

No words are right or enough to take the overbearing pain away. Please know that you are all in my thoughts.

Rachel said...

I am so sorry. I went through surgery and transfusion in 2005 when I lost my little boy. Its so unfair and cruel. I hope you are able to rest and heal physically. Emotionally, it will just take time.

Jason, as himself said...

Add my "I'm so sorry" on top the other 83.

But I really mean it, just as I know everyone else does.

Life is just too hard sometimes.

Oh my darling! I am so so so sorry!
I have been away from my computer for a few days and didn't see your post until now. My heart grieves and my eyes let fall their own stricken rain in echo of your loss.

A million miles away and still I so want to do anything I can to help you....if you need anything please email me (tout_est_des_roses@yahoo.com). It is probably silly and useless to even offer but, know that my entire soul feels for you and wishes I could take this bad bad thing away.

Putting my arm around your shoulders,
sarasophia

Lindsay said...

I stummbled upon your blog and stopped dead in my tracks when I saw this post. I am 27, living in Southern California, and I have had 2 miscarriages. My husband and I are talking about trying again. It is hard and devastating. I know nothing about you, but if you ever need to talk, I might benefit from it as well. Good luck and I am so sorry for your loss.

Magpie said...

I am so sorry and I hope that you are taking care of yourself.

Holding you in my heart.
