Miscarriage/Pregnancy Loss

Feeling like such a failure

I got my second BFP yesterday morning (first m/c was in February). I tried my hardest to not get excited this time.To not start visualizing this baby in my arms, in our home, and at big family events. But I couldn't help it.

Then the cramping started this morning and this afternoon the bleeding started. I guess a positive test then a loss so quickly is a chemical pregnancy? Whatever it is, I feel like a failure, like less of a person, and less of a woman. Twice now I have been pregnant, and twice now my body has not been able to carry it. I really hate this.

  • Yes, it does sound like a chemical pregnancy.  I'm so sorry for your losses.  I can relate to your feeling of failure.  I'm sure you've already heard it, but I'll say it again: It wasn't your fault and you are not a failure.  I hope you are able to find some answers.

  • It does sound like a chemical pregnancy. I am so sorry you are having to go through this. After one miscarriage I think the biggest fear is a repeat. Please take care of yourself. You are anything but a failure.
