I found out last Monday I was pregnant with #2. Very early 1-2 weeks on the digital test. Went to the doctor and my HCG levels came back at 22! I wasn’t due for my period till the Sunday but already had symptoms, which is why I took the test. I took another test a day later, still pregnant! Then Sunday I started bleeding and cramping, and today it’s been heavy bleeding. Doctor basically said I’m miscarrying which I kind of figured. I feel so so sad, I know it was only an early pregnancy, but I still feel horrible.
Still dealing with bleeding and cramping and hormones, so I’m hoping I start feeling normal soon? I’m so devestated. How do you move forward? And want to try again? I wouldn’t wish this feeling in my worst enemy!!!

I feel for you as I just went through a miscarriage, though mine was a lot further along and more complicated than yours. One of the things I took comfort in was being told that we never truely loose our babies as when we give birth or miscarry it our body absorbs some of its dna, meaning our babies will always be with us in our own dna.
You will be ready to try again in your own time, some throw themselves into trying straight away and others can't even think about that. Let yourself grieve first and decide after what you want to do and what your partner wants too.
So sorry for your loss 💔
I too miscarried and was terrified of trying for another one. Having support from those you hold dear is important, cry, scream, shout, write your feelings down what ever helps you to grieve.
Allow yourself to be sad but remember too that life is still beautiful even during heartbreak. Just take things slowly one moment at a time, no major decisions have to made right now. You’ll know when your ready if you decided to try again.
Don’t try to rush through the emotions things will begin to feel “normal” again but for now take care of your self. Know that this moment will pass.
Sending a bunch of love to you!❤️
I’m so sorry
I had the same thing between my 2 babies
I had a pregnancy test confirmed postive and the following weekend I Was in a lot of discomfort and then the bleeding started.
Although only just pregnant it was painful physically and emotionally.
I felt stupid for being so distraught about it due to how early on it was, but a loss is a loss. No matter how you look at it. It took me a while to accept that part of it.
It happened over the weekend and I was forced into being at work on the Tuesday. It was hard but I think it helped me deal.
I didn’t stop trying from that just kept going and now have a beautiful healthy 2 year old boy.
I wish you all the best, sending you love and support in knowing you are not alone.
Make sure you reach out to friends or family for some support and if needed go and speak to a professional that can help you.
