Just had to say I agree with you all on the "miscarriage" thing.  People who don't understand what we have been through use that word so incorrectly when referring to our loss.  I nearly bit a coworkers head off one day when she compared my EP to her MC.  I was slightly "edgy" back then!  Also the "abortion" term is a horrible term.  To me "abortion" is a choice.  I didn't make the choice or loosing my baby.  Sorry for all of that... had to get that off of my chest!!!!!
