Struggling with how many weeks I would have been

I’d be 27 weeks now and had my ERPC at 12 weeks. When I see women who look about 6 months pregnant I feel so bitter thinking it should be me too. Anyone else feel this way?

I absolutely get this - I’ve had two miscarriages this year (one at the start of March at 8 weeks, one at the start of July at 10) and I seem to see pregnant women wherever I go at the moment! I’m sure it’s just me being more aware of bumps than before but it feels like a reminder doesn’t it? Not helped by the fact that two of my friends are currently expecting (one any day now) - I’m obviously happy for them but it hurts at the same time xx sending hugs xx

I should be 37 weeks, it's getting very close to what would have been my due date, it's so sad. My next will be in January, another sad month.

I know how you feel. Pregnant women everywhere. I even have two close friends who are pregnant, one is due the week before I would have been and the other a week after. It's just really rubbish and unfair.

Sorry to hear about your losses ladies, it really is a knife to the heart isn’t it? I’ve started going to anxiety councelling which has helped. I’ve got my next appointment tomorrow so hopefully that will get me through the 2ww as I’m symptom spotting like mad!
