Need a hug!

[MirandaPriestly]

Hi all, I can see this is a relatively quiet board so not looking for lots of replies if anything I just needed somewhere to write this and let it out.

I’m in the middle of miscarrying a totally surprise pregnancy and because of that really struggling with my emotions, to be honest I’ve never felt heartbreak like it and I’m hoping someone will tell me it will pass!

I was 12 weeks 3 days and we were planning on telling the family on Christmas Day.

I chose not to go to the hospital over the weekend and instead manage it at home however my husband works oversees so it’s just me and the kids here. Trying to remain upbeat for Christmas when the reality is I want to hide under the duvet and come out in the new year.

Sending hugs to anyone else going through this or those who struggle with reoccurring miscarriages, this is the worst feeling in the world x

Hi Miranda - sending you a virtual hug It's such a hard thing to go through. Let yourself feel all the sadness and other emotions. Focussing on your kids will help as a distraction in the very hard early days.

Time will make it easier, I promise. I am 2 months after finding out about my MMC now and the sadness is getting better with time. Take care of yourself in the meantime

I’m here for a virtual hug too. Honeymirabella is right, allow yourself to feel all the emotions, I can imagine that’s a tough call with your dc around. Find comfort in whatever you can, keep posting if it helps. One day at a time.

Thank you both for taking the time to reply

I had a miscarriage last year at 5 weeks but don’t remember feeling all that sad afterward just very angry at the world. The physical pain from this is not even a comparison to the emotional and just now I’m really just feeling alone and hopeless.

My husband is trying to be as supportive as possible but realistically he’s 3000 miles away and I don’t think anyone really knows what to say!? If I have to hear “everything happens for a reason” one more time I think I might launch my phone!

Started reading a new book yesterday and trying to let myself feel all the emotions without them consuming me x
