Hi. I hate that there is even a reason for all of us to be here, but I'm glad I found somewhere to get my thoughts out.
I had my miscarriage almost 3 weeks ago. I was 5 weeks. I have 2 living littles but so, SO wanted another. I had absolutely never had the word miscarriage on my radar. And it happened.
I am having an incredibly hard time, which seems strange because I only knew I was pregnant for a few days.
Everyone around me is literally pregnant. I un-follow at least 1 Facebook friend a day because I don't have the energy to watch. I am so amazingly grateful for the babies I do have, and I think that's why losing one is that much harder.
The doctor that I saw told me that in reality, a miscarriage is more common than people think. Having a full- term, healthy pregnancy is a huge accomplishment. He said it was nature and happens to prevent you from having babies with severe issues.
That's great and all, but it still sucks horribly.
I'm hoping that one day, I will be blessed with another healthy baby. In the meantime, I just need to cry every now and then.

At the same time, let yourself grieve when you feel the need. With my first loss, I tried to hold it all in and be "strong" because the doctor's made it seem like "no big deal" that I had just one. Well, BIG DEAL to me! Even after my third loss, I still grieve the loss of each of my little angels, and I imagine I always will. It's healthy and perfectly normal.
So glad you found this board- I hope the ladies here can provide you with comfort and support during this difficult time.
I would LOVE for this never to happen to anyone, EVER. Realistic, right?
