#early loss

[lucilovesyou]

One in Four women will experience pregnancy loss within their lifetime. This is a statistic that nobody talks about, that most women are unaware of until they become the One. Raising awareness needs to start now, so that women everywhere can support each other through their grief. Being united in love makes you strong, but being united in grief will make all of us even stronger. My heart goes out to my fellow sisters who have also experienced or are experiencing this pain. I know it stays with you, for it is staying with me. May we come together and end the silence for ourselves and our angel babies.

I really didn’t want to have to write this

So, I’m not pregnant. At least not anymore. The lines on my HPT? They never really got darker. Even on 20 DPO. That, for me, was not a good sign. Then two nights ago, I started bleeding. It was a chemical pregnancy. It was over. I’m feeling pretty wrecked, especially with the intensity of the emotions I’ve been dealing with the past week—this major high and then, honestly, what feels like dispair. It’s really difficult for me not to hate myself right now. Like, logically I know that it’s not my fault, it’s out of my control, and there isn’t anything that I can do, but I feel so completely shitty. This is literally the one thing I’ve consistently wanted my entire life, and now there’s some reason I can’t do it. It’s frustrating and scary and sad, and now all I can think of are these horribly depressing what-if scenarios. So that’s my update. The plan for next (this?) month is to really top up on my vitamins—I’m adding selenium and CoQ10 to the mix—and to follow the “Sperm Meets Egg” plan, because having sex every day from the time my period ends until a day or two after ovulation was rough on your girl. Real rough. I’ll probably do a post about SME sometime when I’m feeling better. I hope that’s soon. We’ll see. ❤️

So many people I know get to meet their babies soon, and I never even got to see mine. I’m having a really hard time with this tonight.
