First experience with Miscarriage

[UnicornDust22]

This is so tough and weird to type but I had my first miscarriage as a first time mom (was). I found out that I'm pregnant after first medicated trial on 30th March, started having backpain on 4th April. I thought this could be due to constipation, but saw blood when I wiped. Stayed very light, pink in color for 2 days. 3rd day it started getting brighter red but still like spotting and didn't stain the pad. After 6 days of spotting and no cramps, bleeding got heavy on 9th April with bad cramps. 10 April, passed a clot that looked like my perfect little baby of 6 weeks gestation.11 April had the scan, confirmed miscarriage. Thankfully uterus was emptied through the bleeding. Decided a burial for my angel baby.

I still can't believe I'm typing these. I am numb sometimes, and other times just breaking down. Love seems to have stopped.

Hope I get over this with courage and motivation.

Awww massive hugs lovely, its truly devastating to have to go through this. I had a similar experience and it's quite traumatic. Hopefully your memorial will help to give you some closure mentally but the heart does take a lot longer to heal. I'm so sorry for your loss, I do wish you better days ahead.xxx

I’m very sorry to hear about your miscarriage. As Cinderella said below, it is a very traumatic experience and you need to take your time with your healing process. Everything is still very raw. My miscarriage was in September and I still think about the baby every day. I had some very good advice from Miscarriage Association. If you Google them, they have chat facilities on their website. They can also give you details for miscarriage support groups. I also found it helped to tell some friends and family. Thinking of you ❤️ xx

I am so sorry. Please don’t pressure yourself to “get over it”. We don’t get over losses but we will eventually move forward and there’ll always be a place in our hearts for our lost babies.

I would really recommend “the worst girl gang ever” to you. There’s a book (I listened to the audiobook and really found it helpful) as well as support group via website and also a podcast with lots of people sharing their similar experiences. It made me feel less alone and was validating to know I wasn’t the only one who felt certain feelings.

Lots of love

So sorry you are going through this and just letting you know you are not alone. The same happened to me a month ago and it was devastating, especially as it was the first time I had been pregnant after a long fertility journey. Take good care and know you are not alone xx
