I am 19 years old. Last Thursday I found out that I was pregnant..... and not even 2 hours after that I found out that something was wrong. I was going through a molar pregnancy. The very next day I was in the hospital for a d/c. I have never had any kind of surgery before.
My family says that I am strong but I just dont know how to be. I mean.... I am trying. But all I want to do is curl up in a ball and cry. Was this my fault?
Luckly my doctor says that I can still have children. But is this supposed to hurt this bad??? Or am I just being weak? I am so confused...... It would just be nice to have someone to talk to. ↓
Hi amber, I'm so very sorry you are going through this, but a molar pregnancy does not mean you cannot have children, it is just another horrible way to miscarry. I've heard that molar and partial molar pregnancies can take longer to recover from (as in you have to wait longer before trying to get pregnant again). You did not cause this, it is just a horrible fluke of nature like most of these things are. Good luck to you and take comfort in knowing that so so many of us here have gone through similar things and can be a lot of help and support. ↑
Amber, I went through the same thing. I was 19 and found out i was pregnant. One thing different was that i had to go through multiple ultra sounds and afterwards they kept telling me there was no heart beat. My first was about a week after i foudn out i was pregnant, had sex, went to the hospital for bleeding and they just told me it was a threatened miscarriage. I was then on bed rest until i went to the doctors. 3 weeks after i found out that i was pregnant i too had a d/c. I was extremly upset. Because by the time i found out it was a molar pregnancy i had gotten over the shock and fright, because it was unplanned, and became excited and could not wait. Before the surgery, i laid in the hospital bed sobbing and when i came out, i cried knowing that it was all over. It was very hard to get over. I mean extremly hard. Days went by where i would just cry out of no where. It is very hard, but it does happen. I started to believe and remind myself that it was not my fault and God and my body just decided it was not time. Ever since that happened to me, i have felt like i was missing something. but now I am currently ttc with my fiance now. Just so you know, It does get better, I promise. You did nothing wrong and you can have children!! the chances of you having another molar pregnancy is actually smaller than the precentage of it happening. The only reason it happened was because the egg and the sperm did not join correctly. You are in my prayers, and if you want to talk more, i would be glad to talk! ↑
you will get throuh this. i know it's scary. I had a partial molar pregnancy last fall. i carried my son until 17 weeks when they induced labor b/cmy health was failing. i actually ended up on life support but now i am fine. the monthlyblood tests you will have to do SUCK but it's better to avoid the cancer. YOU WILL HAVE OTHER KIDS SOME DAY. I just found out I'm pregnant again, I was scared but everything is fine. Stay strong ↑
