Miscarried last Sunday. I had 2 weeks of not feeling right but didn't know what to expect as it was my first pregnancy - didn't want to make a fuss! Felt I was coping pretty well until today, probably too doped up on codine to think. It was very early, only 7 weeks, but you make plans don't you? I'm already dreading October when I'd have been due. Everyone has been so supportive especially my husband but just wanted to get it off my chest.
Thinking of everyone in the same situation.

Sorry for your loss Sad
Of course you made plans, everybody does. You will get past October because there's no other way really but don't try and not feel sad because you've got to 'cope'. Feeling sad is absolutely the right reaction. This is a sad thing that's happened. Feeling sad is how people 'cope'.

Thanks, I know I'll be ok soon. Just takes time and I'm up and down like a yoyo right now. Staying positive is the idea :)

Something cool, I lost a baby at just 6 weeks last weekend, so early but it still hurts when I think of it! Sad I have been keeping very busy but am so worried it is going to happen again. IKWYM about making plans, I find it impossible not too! I hope you feel better soon xxx

I had a MC in October so would have been due in May. It's only just starting to hit me now. Was talking to someone the other day who is due about when I would have been and that was odd. I MC at a weekend so didn't take any time off work and didn't have time to think about it which maybe wasn't a good idea. I agree with Northernlurker - feeling sad is OK - I'm only realising now.
