Struggling a bit at the mo, the due date from 1st mc is long past now but the due date for 2nd mc is now imminent and of course everything is all head to toe coverage about the royal baby. And now a work colleague is expecting just after when mc3 was due.

This feels sooo lonely, especially of the friends whom I would normally talk to have babies due around each of these dates too so talking about my feelings with them seems very me me me.

I just want to say: this is really shit. And my empathy goes out to anyone else who's going through it too.

Hi Daisybell1 I agree, it can be a very lonely time, especially if you dont have RL friends to talk to, if they haven´t gone through the same. After my MC, everyone was pregnant and I mean everyone, including people who I would never imagine to be a mum iyswim. I agree it is shit, and I try to be happy for all those pregnant while still mourning my own loss. It is hard seeing bump pics at the same stage you should be. My D&C was Valentines day so I am not sure how I will cope with that. Sending you massive hugs xx

More hugs ... I completely agree with you about how difficult the Royal baby coverage is. My EDD was 15th July (MMC at nearly 10 weeks just before Christmas) so also not looking forward to the next few weeks.
Miscarriage is horribly lonely and I have found posting / reading on here has helped tremendously. So can't offer any other advice other than to let you know you really aren't the only one going through this.

More hugs. Royal pregnancy was announced soon after MC2 in September and I've lost another 2 since then. Babies are everywhere you look. Everyone seems to be pregnant, you can't turn on the telly or pick up a magazine without bumps leaping out at you.
Took my DS swimming today and discovered not one but three or the other mums have October due dates (EDD of MC3) Fan-sodding-tastic.

My EDD was 17th July, I lost our daughter in Feb at 19 weeks. We found out she had Downs after we had tests done. We have come to terms with it all but now but I still think about her every single day. Does feel like everyone has babies or are expecting at the moment and you can't help but feel angry, bitter and jealous especially when those people just seem to breeze through pregnancy and take it for granted.
