How to cope with miscarriage?

It’s been a stressful few weeks. After episodes of bleeding, an ectopic scare, a scan with an empty sac and then eventually seeing a baby on the scan at 6 weeks 5 days, I thought maybe I had some hope. It was measuring behind with no heartbeat but I had hope.

Unfortunately today at 7 weeks 5 days, baby is still measuring 6 weeks and there is no heartbeat.

Going to have a scan in a week to confirm a miscarriage. But seems like all hope is lost

I just don’t know how to cope. I feel so broken and numb.
if you experienced this, how did you cope? Any advice?

I am so so sorry you're going through this. It's the worst.
I had a missed miscarriage in August. Baby had stopped developing at 8 weeks and it was only discovered at the 12 week scan. I had surgical management and recovered well but I was definitely grieving the little bean a lot.
I then fell pregnant again immediately afterwards, didn't even have a period. First was suspected ectopic, had lots of bleeding and cramping, but today had my 12 week scan and all is looking good!
You're at the start of this awful time and I really am so sorry for your loss. But know that there is light at the end of the tunnel. I hope you have a support network and people you can talk to. I also got counselling through my maternity unit so if you're struggling, do reach out and ask for help.
Sending you a big hug x
