My story
February 13th I got home from grocery shopping and I just had a feeling that I needed to take a pregnancy test. It was positive immediately. I was so excited but of course nervous to tell my parents as I was 18 years old. I told my mom the same day and she cried saying she was disappointed in me and that she wanted better for me. It was a knife to the heart. Not what you want to hear from your mom. I was even more nervous to tell my dad after getting my mom's response. I eventually worked up the courage to tell my dad on February 19th, my 19th birthday. He was so happy. He instantly hugged me and was so excited to be a grandpa. The next day I had a little spotting and side pain but was told not to worry because it's normal in the beginning of pregnancy. The days following that I had started to bleed more and have episodes of excruciating pain in my left abdomen. On February 26th, it was confirmed that I was miscarrying. It was the worst pain I have ever felt in my life. I was heartbroken. It's been a rocky roller coaster ever since. My boyfriend, of 4.5 years, and I have been trying to conceive ever since.
