I have lost 4 pregnancies between 16 and 18 weeks, going back 10 years. I can tell you the dates and the two that were at 18 weeks the sexes. I always remember those days and the hurt does get less. But I know that they were lost because something wasn't right. I am now 21 weeks and all looks well, I conceived while on the pill and I have PCOS. I know this one was gods will. You just need to know it is nothing you did wrong and it will happen for you and that will start to lessen the pain. I also sought out groups in my area. I live in GA and a lot of the pregnancy service centers offer classes/groups on miscariage with others who have been through it.
Also talk to your doctor and plan your next attempt the them, them may be able to do things from the start to prevent this from happening again.

Here's some info. you may find helpful:
I not only had a miscarriage (20 yrs. ago), but I had a difficult time conceiving. My mother introduced me to her neighbor/midwife, who shared some priceless info., with me. The midwife informed me that many miscarriages/infertility can be due to a vitamin E definciency. So, she recommended 400 units aday, prior to trying getting pregnant and continue during the pregnancy. She also daily recommended a couple capsules of Red Raspberry leaves (strengthens the uterus), too. Since then, I never had another miscarriage or difficulty getting pregnant and now have 3 kids. I shared this info. 15 yrs. ago, with clientele of mine, whom was spotting during here pregnancy, she took the recommendation and 3 days later her spotting subsided.
I hope you find the comfort you're searching for!

It is not your fault! It is no ones fault. You must allow yourself to grieve, though. I know you are in pain and understandably so.
My sister lost 4 before she had my niece. The doctors didn't know to look for something called "anticardial lipin antibodies" in her blood that caused these miscarriages. Thank God she told me! I told my doc and she tested me for it and it turned out I have it too. All I had to do was take one baby asprin a day for the first 2 trimesters. I delivered a healthy little girl.
Perhaps this is your problem and the docs don't know to look for it? It couldn't hurt to ask, huh?
Take care.

Im very very sorry for your loss, I am always carrying this fear around with me. I would suggest you and the father both go get a genetic test, there may be something going on that you are unaware of. My husband has something called a balance translocation and this can cause difficulties to a healthy baby and healthy pregnancy. They will be able to help you in your quest of having a healthy baby. Good luck and god bless!!

Perhaps you need grief counseling. Are you using a fertility specialist who specializes in treating women prone to miscarriages?
I have a dear friend who had 4 miscarriages. After that, she had 4 healthy boys all of whom became professionals. One is a now a heart surgeon.

A miscarriage is nature's way of saying that there is something wrong with the baby and it will not survive outside the mothers womb. I believe that the babies are angels and God wants them with him. Being a parent is a very important and special job and God has a perfect baby picked out for you. When that one comes he will let you keep it. It will hurt no matter what. I pray that God gives you peace about it.
