It's not hard to try again

Hopefully you believe in God, because he can give you the peace that passes all understanding. Take care, Denise

i realise this might sound a bit harsh, but no matter how bad you feel right now, this is not about you. be there for your step daughter. she is going to need you right now more than ever.

She has a wonderful caring step-mother who is there to love and support her. Just being there for her to talk to should be a comfort to her. I really can't come up with anything good for you except you are lucky that she values your love and friendship because most kids don't care much about step-parents.

That just means that is wasen't supposed to happen, God does everything for a reason, and that just means that it wasent supposed to happen thats all, same thing happened to me and my fianc'e, we had a miscarriage and we believe that God didnt want us to have a child yet.

I'm so sorry for you and your step-daughter. It must not have been the right time for this child to arrive. When it is, he or she will be loved even more than you thought possible. Miscarriages are not uncommon. As long as your step-daughter is healthy, she can try again. Good luck to your family.

{{{HUGS}}} I'm so sorry. I'm not sure anything I could say will take away your pain. People sometimes mean well and offer things like, "You can have other children" and "You'll forget this one in time" but those only hurt more. Sometimes bad things happen to good people and the best the rest of us can do is just be there for you.

26 is young and ripe...the degree of difficulty as it relates to "trying" is obviously not the issue. it's just sad all the way around. i feel for you and i am sorry. it's a miracle miscarriages don't happen way more often; the science of it all is really not on our side. miracles happen all the time, and right when you think you have sufficient reason to lose all hope, something so great will happen that you won't forget what happened, but you will have both the wherewithal to move on from this and a reason to do so. as the gza would say, "don't be full of sorrow, the sun will still come out tomorrow..."

When a healthy baby comes to her (WHICH IT WILL, I'M SURE)she will love it even more than most, because it won't be a luxury. TELL HER 'SORRY' from me, and give yourself a hug, too, from me!!!

I can tell one thing good just from your question: you are blessed with a loving relationship with a stepchild such that you would grieve deeply for her. I would give anything for that kind of love with any of my stepparents. There is nothing good about a miscarriage. It is a painful loss. My aunt lost a baby who would now be in his forties, and she still talks about the loss as if it were yesterday. But life will go on, and with any luck, she'll be blessed with another child to love. This is a much less common occurrence than it used to be. There are treatments that can be done to help the next baby, unlike two of my friends whose oldest child survived and five or six died afterwards of Rh factor. Most likely the next one will do just fine.

No! You said that the healthy baby was born on the 17th! I was saying 'I'm happy for you' about THAT not the first thing. Gosh, no one is that cruel. Sorry that you took it the wrong way.:(

I can't really help you on the something good but I can tell you I truly understand how you feel.My husbabnd and I have been trying for what seems like forever to have a baby. Finally I hear I'm pregnate and then have a miscarrage. I can tell you it gets easier and that I am trulyy sorry for your lose
