Miscarriage last week & feel lost

Sitting in costa coffee by myself after my d&c last week after two miscarriages in a row and feel so lost.

Everyone's stopped messaging and moved on and I can't help but feel sorry for myself.

Got a cake but feel so fat and disgusting with all the weight gain I'm not even enjoying it! Sorry to rant must feel the world is against me this morning. Any words of wisdom... after all it is international women's day!

Sorry for what you're going through. You can get through this. It's lovely to hear you're treating yourself, don't feel bad about the cake! My sister always tells me, one unhealthy day won't make you fat just like one healthy day won't make you skinny. Enjoy it and make sure you look after yourself over the coming weeks. Perhaps consider some counselling to help with your loss. x

Sorry to hear about your loss. I think unless people have experienced miscarriage themselves it's very hard to understand the grieving process.

I've had one and even accused my now-DH of not caring because I struggled so bad (obviously not true).

Time really is all that helps and trying to stay positive. Try counseling if you think it would help and look after yourself Thanks

Thanks ladies.. really appreciate it, I've just been to the library and picked up some positivity books and one about miscarriage so will start reading these too. Xx

So sorry this has happened 😢

I too might be having a d&c next week if the scan still shows an empty sack 😩

So sorry for your loss. It’s a hard time, please be kind to yourself. All the emotions and feelings you are describing are normal. Give yourself time to grieve. It’s all about time. And as much as you need and don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. You’ve made a good step by coming here, there’s lots of support on here so you’ll never need to feel alone. I had my miscarriage just over 3 weeks ago but didn’t need a d&c and I still have times where I feel really sad and lost and empty. You will get there, in time. Big hugs and wishing you a speedy recovery xxx

@sheskilledmyplant, fingers crossed for next Friday. Hoping there’s a positive change xxx

Thank you @mommato3 xx

I had my op yesterday after two weeks of bleeding and pregnancy still in there. Sad times.

It's a shitty thing to go through.

First thing I did when I woke up from the general was ask the nurse next to me for a hug.

sheskilledmyplant · 09/03/2019 15:13

So sorry @sophied1983 Look after yourself and rest up as much as possible.

I'm still losing brown blood, been waiting for a gush since it started on Thursday but it just keeps starting and stopping.
