Struggling with emotions after mc :(

I only knew I was pregnant for two days, but had to wait for another 3 days for confirmation of mc, those days were torture and I'm struggling to cope with my emotions, I have a 2 year old son and a husband with a new job and I'm finishing myself irritable with them :( I've tried to do something nice with my son today, but I just can't :(

Is anyone else struggling? This is my 5th mc, earliest one yet, but by far the most traumatic :( I just feel so alone and sad, and guilty for wasting time not spending wildlife time with my son :(

I totally get it. I also found it very hard to enjoy time with my son (almost 2) while also dealing with the grief. Hearing people tell me 'at least you have your son' made it even worse. I hate it that nobody but me and husband miss my lost child. My husband is also suffering under my grief from time to time. I tend to loose my temper (also due to progesteron supplements which affect my mood very strongly - I didn't realize I could be this girly and bitchy before the supplements).

I had to have a talk with my mum to make her understand why I was going through, I think she gets it more now than she did before. Honestly I Think unless you've been through it you just don't understand the loss, I was so excited to bring my son to the hospital to meet his little brother or sister, it's all the plans and things that you've been looking forward to that you're grieving for as well.

At least your husband understands, mine does understand how I'm feeling, but isn't really grieving himself

If you ever feel like you need to talk I'm here, and I will understand what you're going through :)
