Miscarriage

[SoReady34 0]

I'm 9 months post op and found out that i was 6 wks pregnant so naturally i went straight to surgeon office to have band opened. The next day i had alot of cramping. The following day i had a miscarriage. Just curious if anyone has had this experience or has heard of anyone that has.

There is also a pregnancy section of the board. Maybe someone there would know something?

I'm so sorry for your loss. I've experienced the same, and know it's horrible and gut-wrenching.

Please don't try to find reasons--or blame yourself. Most pregnancy losses are simply due to embryonic issues that aren't compatible with life. Sometimes, they are due to things like progesterone deficiencies; if your doctor thinks this is the problem, it can be addressed with future pregnancies.

Take good care of yourself; the emotional and physical healing can be difficult. It's a huge loss.

I'ms so sorry :thumbup:
