to the little one who didn't make ityesterday my wife was 12 weeks pregnant and we were stoked. next came excruciating pain, an ultrasound showing the baby 1/2 in the uterus with the other 1/2 in the filopian tube about to burst and a high speed road rally to vancouver. the rest is a nightmare I wouldn't wish on anyone. Kristina came out ok, but we left the little one behind. I am bummed beyond belief...

Sorry, Mang.
Haven't had that particular fuck-up, but I know a few others.
Life really is a miracle and it certainly is fragile.
She needs you. Lots. Love her and give her anything she wants.
Peace and ++++ vibes to you and the little lady.

Getting to the end can be a tougher road than most think

You two will get there. Peace.

The same thing happened to us and it hit us pretty hard. My heart goes out to you and your wife.
One thing we found out is that these things happen way more often than we're lead to believe.
After a while of anxiety about our ability to have nubs, the next try succeeded. You'll be fine and don't let the gremlins of worry getcha.Merde De Glace On the Freak When Ski

Very glad to hear your wife is healthy, even though this isn't the way you wanted things. Just have to stay positive and try not to put too much worry into the next one. Good luck to both of you.

I'm very sorry for your loss. A co-worker of mine and his wife just went through a similar ordeal.

Yup, it's fairly common. I know this doesn't provide much solace, but it does happen quite often.

This just happened to us, and we learned that it is so common although that did nothing for our spirits. We were at 12 weeks too, its heartwrenching. We got pregnant very shortly after the miscarraige and just got past 16 weeks and all is well. Hang in there things will get better

That's no fun
My condolences. Happened to us 3 times. It's amazing how often it happens, when you start telling folks about it you hear more and more stories, not that it makes things easier. They say it happens for a reason, that something wasn't quite right. All you can do is greive hard and look forward to the day you'll be skiing with little ones. It'll happen sooner than you think.

Don't give up.
G xxxMonty Python's version of the cougar phenomenon:
"This is a frightened city. Over these houses, over these streets hangs a pall of fear. Fear of a new kind of violence which is terrorizing the city. Yes, gangs of old ladies attacking defenseless, fit young men".
