Miscarried 2 weeks ago and I have not cried yet.....i feel so numb

[crispyduck]

What is wrong with me?
Am I normal?

Don't beat yourself up over the fact that you haven't cried yet. People handle things very differently. My DS2 was stillborn just before Christmas last year and I seemed to switch into automatic pilot when it happened and didn't cry until DH sat me down with a big bottle of wine.

I felt so numb and lost that I didn't know what to do. I also didn't want to cry because I was scared that if i started then I wouldn't stop again and I had to stay strong for DS1!

Anyway what I'm trying to say is take it one day at a time and at some point when you least expect it you might find yourself in floods of tears.

I'm so sorry for your loss

Sorry to hear that..I want to cry but I cant... I feel lost without the pregnancy...it hurts but I cant cry....I have tried to speak to my husband..it seems he is taking it really well

I found out I had a missed miscarriage three weeks ago and the miscarriage happened naturally 3 weeks ago.

I have cried - but very little. Twice on the day I found out. Once since. I still haven't cried properly - not in the way I want to. I am still grieving and desperately throwing myself energetically into everything I do. I fluctuate between being quite positive, being very angry and being a little confused (good ol' hormones are still kicking around). If I drink more than a glass of wine I get far too sad, so am avoiding alchohol at the moment.

I'm not sure what is happening to me, but do feel that one day I will have a mammoth cry. I had a natural miscarriage at home, so am planting a little box in the garden next weekend, so in future I can go and talk to the tree it will be under. I feel that will help me.

I don't know if that is any help at all, but understand what you mean. The shock is great.

crispyduck and other lovely ladies - so sorry to hear about your losses.

I had a MMC about a month ago and even though it was my 2nd MC I've felt really different emotionally this time. I was expecting to be weeping and wailing but actually have felt numb and then so, so angry.

Crispy - try not to worry about not crying yet. I know what you mean about really wanting to - needing a release. It will come in some form. We are here with a listening ear when you need x

i have had 2 m/c in 5 months and not cried yet either, not sure why but thinking of you
