Miscarriage/Pregnancy Loss

2 weeks have gone by....

Well, 2 weeks have gone by since losing our son Joel. It seems that every tuesday this one and last, tuesdays have not been my day. I mean i knew and expected every tuesday to be an awful reminder of what had happened, but i didnt realize what kind of problem every tuesday would bring. It seems like this tuesday and last tuesday my DH and I both fight with each other to the point where i cant stop crying and am miserable and where he just shuts off and wont talk to me, text me while he is at work, and wont answer a phone call. I feel like I am being punished for not being able to carry my son, now that 2 tuesdays have come, it just seems like every other day is as good as it is going to get under the circumstances, but now i feel like b/c i was a failure as a mother, being as i couldnt even do something like have my son ( i dont feel like a failure for my 9 y/o son), just to this one, i feel like i failed joel, i feel like i failed my dh b/c i couldnt give him his son, i just feel like each tuesday has been my punishment for what i couldnt do and I am so sorry for that, i didnt want it to happen, and i guess i am going to have to just deal with being punished, i just feel like a horrible failure right now and dont know what to do....CryingBroken Heart

  • you're definately not a failure
  • You are not a failure and this is not your fault...love and hugs.
  • Please don't be so hard on yourself. This is not your fault and know you are not being punished. ((hugs))

  • Hi Butterfly.  It very easily could have been me typing that post.  We just had our first fight on a bad day (NT scan would've been Tues.) and I have spent the last couple of nights doing nothing but crying and feeling miserable.  I said those exact words to my husband last night about feeling like a failure.  I know that this was biological in my case and I did nothing to cause it, but I still feel like I failed, my baby and my DH.  I am trying really hard, and have had good days, but the past 3 or 4 have been the worst.

    I sincerely hope you know that it is not your fault.  It's hard to put that in perspective when you're grieving, I know.  I try to focus on the fact that I have had some good days. I hope you have too and they you have more in the upcoming days.  You are not alone in your feelings, I think we've all been there.  We're here for you.  {{{hugs}}}.
