I feel like I don't belong anywhere right now. That probably sounds silly. I am looking at my son playing with his dinos & am trying to stay happy & positive for him since he didn't know, but its hard. He keeps asking why mommy is sad & I just tell him that mommy is having a bad day but I will get better.
I have friends how have been through this much later in the pregnancy & when I think of that I feel like I don't have the right to be this upset since I wasn't far along at all. I didn't think this would be so hard on me. The cramping is starting more & more. Do you ladies have any pointers on what to expect? does this take days? TIA for your help
I truly appreciate it.

I am so sorry. I know what you mean. I was 7 weeks. We had only known for about 4 weeks but we were so excited. This was our first prenancy and it was all we could think about. I too know people we have lost their little ones much further along and really felt silly when telling the ones who knew about my loss. They were all very supportive. A loss is a loss. It was the hope for a life, the dreams that we had about that life. Those hopes and dreams were there long before my positive HPT, but now we were celebrating the dreams becoming a reality. To have that taken away is a horrible heart breaking event.
Everyone has a different experience, but I can tell you that my intense cramping lasted about 2 days and then it just stopped. I was so grateful when it did.
I hope that you are physically and emotionally supported. Best wishes to you.
