Miscarriage

Rebecca

I'm 21 and I miscarried on Sunday 14/07/19 I would have been 6 weeks and 1 day. It was an unplanned pregnancy but I was still happy. I knew I was pregnant from 2dpo I could feel it and began having symptoms. I feel asif I knew this was going to happen. I forced myself not to take a test until my period was 10 days late (usually I would take it after being a day late) for some reason I didn't want to find out but I couldn't hold out any longer. I got my positive on 07/07/19 the line wasn't the darkest, I took 2 more tests over the coming days, the lines never really getting any darker although they were cheap tests. I had mild cramps on and off the whole time I knew I was pregnant, it was told this was normal. On Sunday morning 8am I woke up to use the toilet and the spotting started, I didn't have any pain. I didn't think anything of it and went back to sleep, I woke again at 11.50am when the bleeding became slightly heavier. Everything has felt like a blur since I haven't experienced much pain at all and hadn't really bled that much before passing the fetus. My heart hurts, my body feels numb, I can barely speak, I can't express how I feel only when writing it down, my whole life changed in an instant. My partner isn't good at expressing his feelings or comforting people when they are upset, he has showed no emotion although he has looked after me well. I just feel like I am the only person who feels this pain. My best friend has just had an abortion for personal reasons so I feel I can't really confide in her either. I just don't know what to do except cry 😭💔
