There is no good time to endure a miscarriage but it seems to me that during COVID is the absolute shittest.
I was told last Friday that my pregnancy wasn’t going to progress and I wouldn’t definitely miscarry as was too small for gestation stage but I needed to come back in a week for a scan to confirm this. Fortunately DH was allowed into scan but we both had to wear masks. Trying to cry And breathe through a surgical mask was just awful. Almost as bad as having to wait a week at home, terrified to leave the house in case I start to bleed heavily. I’m booked in for a surgical DC next Friday following the confirmation scan but partner can’t be there in the waiting room with me or afterwards, so I will have to go through this totally alone. It’s actually breaking my heart at the thought of it, and the nurse said it was so sad for them too but it was ‘government guidance.’
I mean, it’s all just so deeply, deeply shit. I feel for any woman having to go through this right now. There is no worse time.
