@joey88 I'm so sorry my friend. It is a really awful feeling, and one I don't really think I've ever felt before if I'm honest. It's like the opposite feeling of when we learned about her pregnancy, it's this awful creeping sadness that won't let up. If you want to commiserate, I'm here. I...

@jnel Our doc is amazing; super direct without being rude or insensitive. We had a kind of shitty first ultrasound tech that made us worried, but outside of that her provider has been nothing short of fantastic.

@joshuahannan Thank you so much for your story and sharing it like that. That truly does give me hope. What I keep trying to remind myself is that the body knows, and if this kiddo wasn't right this time around that's okay. It's hard but it's something I've stuck to. I'm so happy to hear things...

@youthleaderjames Amazing man! I'm glad you had a happy ending to your story. I'm sure we'll be there someday too. Thanks for sharing your story.

@perfect786 Thank you so much for the sub, I'm checking it out now. I'm sure it will be incredibly helpful.

@sheep19 Thanks, it does help to hear the success stories of others, especially when they are around my age too, it is a good reminder that we're not alone out there. There's just so much negativity and misinformation around older parents, and we all know what a cesspool the internet can be, so...

@dizneyfan I appreciate that. It feels very surreal to me, almost like when we found out she was pregnant but reversed. I'm glad we both have therapists and are both on the books for this week, even before we got the update. We're both semi-gallows humor so we try to laugh when we can, and...

@brady I like that idea. We'd been talking about a little getaway vacation or something, so maybe we'll do that and kind of recharge the battery.

@imnathaniel Yeah, we're both pragmatic enough and paranoid enough (the doc talked about the rare but possible situation of infection) that we might just help nature along depending on everything, but we'll see. A big part of our choice to wait until later to have kids was specifically because...

@imnathaniel We're determined to keep trying, but we're not going to force anything either. We talked last night and I told her that I want to make sure she's feeling ready for anything we do, and to know that I'm not expecting her to just "get back to it". I want her to let me know what feels...

Hey fellas, new to the sub and hoping in the future I can post more exciting news but today after only about 7 wks we were told that our first attempt is likely going to be nonviable. We weren’t officially diagnosed as a miscarriage but the doctor more or less said it’s a pretty sure thing...
