Family pregnancy after you miscarriage

[Emmalouise2008]

I found out I was pregnant really early, only a week later to have a miscarriage, this was back in February. Not long afterwards my brother announced himself and his wife where expecting. I find myself each week counting how many weeks I should be.. dose anyone else find themselves doing this. This is my second miscarriage after having one 11 years ago. I do not have any children and was really young when I lost my 1st at 12 weeks and Have blocked all the memories out. I found myself struggling to accept that I miscarriage this time and even spent a few weeks thinking it hadn’t happened, in the last week my brother and his wife have been for their scan and I find myself struggling to visit and talk to them wot are other experiences of coping with other family member after....

Hiya,
I saw this post and it could have been me! I also have just miscarried, (at 8 weeks) having found out very early at 10DPO. The same week I found out about my pregnancy my brother and his girlfriend announced their pregnancy. I have been excited for over a month to tell them that their baby would be getting a cousin in a similar age. I hadnt announced yet which I am pleased about as I dont think I could have dealt with having to tell everyone about the miscarriage.
So I know exactly how you feel. It’s so hard because you want to be excited for them but also feel jealous and worry that it’ll never happen for you.
Here’s hoping we both get our happy ending. One thing for sure is that I won’t be doing a big announcement via social media if I am lucky to fall pregnant again. Not only because I’m scared of another miscarriage but also because I don’t want anyone to feel how I do now. Thinking of you xxxx

I hadn’t told him so they don’t know, just struggling with watching them go through everything we should be... and no only people that needed to know knew and they have all been really supportive. Thank you for sharing your story. I hope things work out for you xx
