Yesterday I wrote a post about being "just worried" because I had a brownish discharge on the 1st Tri boards. Everyone was very kind, supportive and positive and I am thankful for that.
Turns out I should have been worried. The symptoms progressed to all those that you dread and I ended up in the hospital from 11p.m. - 4 a.m. and I miscarried at 8 weeks.
I am surprisingly ok. I know that what happened, happened for a reason and that it wasn't my fault. It was hard hearing the sadness in my mom's voice this morning when I called her. But I am glad I have people to talk to and who I know will be so supportive. DH has been wonderful, it just makes me love and appreciate him and what we have so much more.
I just wanted to share with people who would understand. I have already told my mom and best friend hearing the sadness in their voices was hard.
Re: m/c last night
I'm very sorry for your loss.
You sound like me after ... I knew it was for a reason, and I was so very grateful to have such a supportive DH and family and friends. It's very hard to share the news, though, because it sucks to make people sad.
It did hit me a few times in the days following, and that pain will always be there in a way, but it gets easier, and all you can do it look forward and hope for things to go right the next time.
I wish you all the best.
I'm so sorry for your loss.
DH and I were talking this weekend about our families and how hard it was to tell about the MC news we were told on Friday. It is just spreading the grief and it is like a cancer - so sad.
Be kinder than necessary, for everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle!

I like you was initially OK with the whole situation; the DH and I had talked extensively about the situation and were at peace with the idea that "everything happens for a reason." However, I have to warn you that even though I believe in my heart it happened for a reason I recently hit a brick wall-emotionally. Yesterday was 10 days post m/c and I woke up with a heavy heart and lots of crying I couldn't explain. My DH and family are wonderful, I am very thankful, but for some reason the past 24 hours have been very rough. Good luck, keep communicating with the DH-it will help you in the end!
Love.
