I went for my dating scan and all they found was an empty sac. I went for a medically managed miscarriage and everything went pretty textbook. This was my first miscarriage. I have an 8 year old son.
I'm struggling with a few things. Mostly the unexpected relief I'm feeling of not having to go through pregnancy during this uncertain time, but also relief that there wasn't a baby there, if you know what I mean? I mourn the memory of what we had, but I feel it would have been "worse" if there had been something there inside the sac. I suppose I'm just trying to see if my thoughts are normal.
We do plan to TTC again as soon as I'm healed and I know the odds are in our favor for a healthy pregnancy to come, but I even feel guilty about wanting to move forward. I know the baby things we've purchased already will be used (we haven't got many), but when I think my head is clear, I start to feel the guilt again. I am scared of this happening again, but I'm trying to be rational.
Sorry for the ramble.
