Default bad news (m/c mentioned)

Well, we just got back from having my D&C. I had an ultrasound scheduled for this morning with my doctor, it would have been our third. We'd already had two where we saw and heard the heartbeat. I was in my 11th week of pregnancy. Then on Wednesday night I started spotting and everyone said not to worry because it was only brown blood. But I knew something was wrong. I had felt the last week like my symptoms subsided a bit and I read in my books that is common because the placenta could be taking over around this time. Unfortunately when they took us in yesterday for an ultrasound the baby's heart had stopped beating and had stopped growing probably last week. I'm so devasted right now. I have gone through every emotion it seems. Just when I think I can't cry anymore I start again. This was just such a shock. I thought for sure that since we'd heard the heartbeat and it was strong, 170!, that we would be okay. The doctor says we have to wait 2 months to try again. But then we'll be doing another IUI. I really don't feel anyone can understand this except for all the ladies on here. Has anyone been through this before? Does it get more bearable with time?
