Miscarriage/Pregnancy Loss

1st day

Hi, don't think I have a question just I guess venting. Today is my first day waking up and realizing I am not pregnant any more. My miscarriage was discovered yesterday. I am so sad and the tears won't stop. I go back to work soon and that will be helpful, but I know everyone will start asking me when are we going to start having a family. I am also going to be around other pregnant women. Don't get me wrong I am happy for them, but I feel jealous too. I guess that is normal! Makes me feel bad though about feeling that way.

I am now trying to figure out how do I go back to my "old" life before, seeing friends and gym, etc.....just seems like it is going to be too much effort.

I am still bleeding and I feeling crampy-that is the only reminder of once being pregnant.

Silly of me but I still can't bring myself to take a advil or have any foods that I gave up because I was pregnant. I guess I still don't believe it all.

Sorry ladies no real question, just I am not sure where to put all of these feelings. I am lucky to have a great husband but I don't think any one but you all know how empty you feel!

Thanks for letting me say all of this.....I hope the days get easier for all of us!

Re: 1st day

  • Just wanted to say I'm so very sorry for your loss..Its been exactly one week since my miscarriage. I am still in a bit of shock, every morning I wake up and have to remember that I am not pregnant anymore. I went back to work yesterday and was actually comforted by the kind words of my co-workers. It also felt good to be out of the house and have my mind on something else for a bit. You should not push yourself though. The healing process takes a long time. I think that going through something like this changes you, you will look a life differently. I hope you feel better soon, take one day at a time...hugs

  • I am sorry for your loss.  It is a difficult time and you need to give yourself time to heal.  It may help to get back to your old routine of seeing friends and working out - I have noticed that it has helped me focus on other things, rather than just sitting around being sad. 

    My miscarriage was last week Saturday and I notice that it is getting alittle easier, but I still randomly will cry out of the blue.  Take one day at a time, and hopefully it will get a little easier as the days pass.

  • I came to the board today for the same reason.  This week has been spent going to the doctor or talking to the doctor hoping that the spotting didn't get worse.  The bleeding started Wednesday night and the miscarriage was confirmed yesterday.  They did more blood work yesterday and I am waiting for the results.  There is a part of me (very small part) that thinks it is possible I could still be pregnant.  I know it is cazy and it isn't going to happen but right now it is the only keeping me together.

    Sorry you are going through this.  We are all here with you.

  • I'm so sorry for your loss. Let yourself feel all of the things you are feeling... they are completely normal! It's OK to be sad - it's OK to feel sad for a while! (don't let anyone tell you that it's not) Miscarriages are so difficult - no matter how early or how late in the pregnancy... Take some time to grieve and do something special for yourself - like go get a mani/pedi or buy yourself a new outift....

    Good luck to you... and bless your little angel. ::hugs::
