Almost humbled by this experience
Anyone else find themselves... almost kind of humbled by the experience of miscarrying a baby?
Everything was going well pretty well with life, things were pretty easy. Minor interruptions and bumps in the road seemed like a huge deal. You'd find yourself getting upset over the small inconveniences and stressing out over things that probably didn't matter much in the long run but, in that moment they felt huge and important.
And then you miscarried.
I had a D&C on Thursday at nearly 11 weeks and it was/is one of the worst experiences of my life. I wouldn't wish this pain upon anyone. It feels unbearable at times. Like a bad dream you can't wake up from.
I can't help but feel almost humbled by this experience. All of the things that were bothering me, that felt so stressful or annoying or made me feel angry or upset... it was all bullshit. It all seems like total bullshit to me now. I took so much for granted.
I feel that before (my miscarriage) I had been inflated a bit and this loss has effectively brought me back down to Earth and has put things in to perspective. In both bad ways and good ways. I look at things differently now, I react differently to things. I don't know how to explain it.
I have been humbled, all around, by this experience and I'm wondering if anyone else feels this way too?
(Sorry if this is rambling, I'm trying to work my way through this by talking and *apparently* overthinking.)
