Nobody tells you about this...

That 1 in 4 pregnancies end in miscarriage.

That miscarriage is not always cramping followed by lots of blood.

That the baby can stop growing and have no heartbeat and your body can still act pregnant for weeks before discovering what has happened.

That even after discovering your baby is no longer alive, your body still doesn’t want to let go.

And then, when it finally does, you feel some relief that you actually have closure and clarification that yes, this terrible thing is actually happening. Then you feel guilty for all the thoughts in your head.

Nobody tells you about the blood, but also about the excruciating, debilitating pains you feel as your body rids you of what was once your beloved future.

I am wrecked.
