Hi I just wanted to share my feelings on here, I’m not sure if it would help but I don’t feel like I’m coping.
I found out I had a silent miscarriage on 1st September at my 12 week scan, baby had died at 8 weeks 5 days, i had surgical management a week after. Physically I have recovered, the surgery went fine, I got an infection but it was sorted with anti biotics, the bleeding stopped after about a week of the surgery and I’m ok just waiting on my first period now.
But my head is going to pot, I can’t sleep, I’m so sensitive to everything, I can’t stop crying, I can’t stop thinking about everything, not only what’s just happened and being devastated by our loss but I’m questioning my whole life. My relationship, my job, where I live, am I a good mum? (I have an 11 year old son). I’m going insane and I just don’t know what to do. Is this normal?
I’m trying to pre occupy myself, but I’m working from home so it’s hard not having the usual office distractions, I’ve been pushing myself to go out for walks to break the day up and get fresh air, bought a new book, trying to listen to podcasts but I just can’t concentrate on anything.
I feel so’s awful because I know my partner is trying his best to support me, and now my son is noticing my moods. I just don’t want it to affect them
Sorry this post is a bit long winded I just needed to post this somewhere, because I’m putting on a brave face to most people but really I feel like I'm crumbling. Has anyone else felt like this after? Any advice?
