Patryce, I had a stillborn - full term - and each person grieves in their own way and time. It is a loss, a disappointment when you are so excited and feel physically ok. Nothing can prepare you for it. Communicate with your partner - he has experienced a loss to. Cry together - don't hide your emotions. After awhile you will understand that it was for a reason and will move forward to start again. I never go throughout a day that I don't miss my daughter wondering all the moments we missed out on.

Please give yourself time - look into what medical issues you may need to look at - get docs with great SKILL with fibroids and fibroid treatments. It may be important to go to doctors who handle high risk cases/infertility specialists/and gyn skilled in all fibroid procedures. I have talked to women that the placenta / fibroid were ok and they had several babies ok. Find out if fibroids are in the cavity / lining....location is important.

I feel your pain. Many of us have had a loss, you are not alone.

(I'll post your message on our Fibroid Forum too. You can find a lot of info on the Fibroid Forum for your research.)
