A couple of days ago I started having a MC at 5 weeks. It is of course very early. I have 2 healthy DC's. This is my first MC. We had only told 3 people we were even pregnant.
There is so much going on in the world where people are suffering. There are so many other mums or want-to-be-mums on here who I can see suffer much worse, I am horrified to read some of the posts in this topic. I know how lucky I am and I feel quite philosophical about the MC - just one of those things, not meant to be etc. BUT in brief moments I look at my DC's and I feel very acutely the sadness, knowing by looking at them just what we have lost. And I just need to find some ways to acknowledge that, even for a brief time, this new life had begun. And now is already ended. Otherwise it starts to feel like it didn't even happen.
I use MN a lot but I don't post very often. I have been reading the experiences of so many people on here and it is such a supportive community that I just wanted to wade in on this occasion to share my experience.
