I had a MMC Easter time last year. It would have been my first child with my DP (had little support during pregnancy with ex h & this would have been so different) & as I am soon 39 & we are not in a position to try again atm, this may have been our only chance of a child together. It was also due on DP's 40th birthday.
It took me a long time to get through it, put huge strain on our relationship & I am still having counselling now. Don't know if we could put ourselves through the possibility of going through another loss even if circumstances were different, but it is hard to get my head around.
I have come a long way & things are starting to pick up, but on Sunday my sister announced she was 5 weeks pregnant with her second child & I feel awful because she could see in my face that I was a bit wobbly on hearing her news & I went home & cried when I told my DP. I am of course happy for her & happy to become an Auntie again but there is also sadness there which I feel guilty for.
