5 weeks, 6 days

I miscarried on Monday. I never got to see the baby or hear it’s heartbeat. I knew about it for 10 days. Mine wasn’t extremely painful physically although you definitely aren’t prepared about all the blood, cramps, hormone shifts, etc.

I don’t know anyone else who has miscarried. Or maybe they just don’t talk about it. It can get lonely sometimes so I’m thankful for this app.

I’m sad sometimes and when I am, I’m really sad. But I’m ready to try again and I feel guilty for that. But I know that whatever is meant to be, will be. I’m meant to be a mom, somehow, someway.

To every mom that’s gone through this, I’m sorry for not understanding your pain or helping you more. I’m sorry I ask women when they’re having kids without considering what they’ve gone through or are going through. I’m sorry if you had to go through this alone. You are unbelievably strong and your child is so lucky to have been a part of you, for however long it was.
