lost my baby and need to rant (don't read if you're squeamish)

I'm having a miscarriage, started on Saturday and still going. It came out of the blue, last pregnancy was fine, and I hadn't even thought of the possibility of miscarriage, stupid I know. The thing is I just can't believe how horribly distressing the process of miscarrying is, I guess I just thought it would be like a period, but it's not, and all morning I had cramps and passing horrid clots and lumps of stuff, and every time I went to the loo it was like that's a bit of my baby I'm flushing away. I just sobbed my heart out every time I had to go to the loo, and it's all been so horrid and messy and distressing.
You probably know I'm overseas, and so no easy pop down to the hospital. My friend who is a mid wife is looking after me, and she's very understanding etc, and says it's all normal, it's just so bloody miserable, and I hate it.

Be kind to yourself and give yourself as much time to grieve as you need. We are here when you are ready to talk. Bunnyxx
