More of a vent than a question trying to get my head around what happened last night I know it's tmi but because I'm on the pill and tried to skip a visitor this month I've had regular spotting and was pretty much told that your not in your 20s anymore our body changes I went for a shower and felt something just drop out of me I thought oh just a clot (I pass them all the time on my monthlys so nothing new there) but when I looked properly it was actually body tissue so I then called the hospital and went down surprising the believe 99.9% that I miscarried the other .1% is it was a molar pregnancy. What I'm trying to work out though is how did I not know I was pregnant I had the sore boobs but put that down to the pill and felt a bit off but yet again put it down to my body getting used to the pill. A big part of me is sad that I've lost something that I didn't know about the other part of me is not relieved but not as sad as we had decided not to have anymore children but even if we found out that we were expecting it would of been very much loved and wanted. Sorry for the ramblings but I am sure you will all understand I have had very little sleep last night

Oh you poor thing, that must have been a huge shock. Give yourself a break though it is way easier than you think. Every pregnancy is different and as you age pregnancy can present very differently. Especially if you had no reason to suspect you were pregnant. There was a woman on here not that long ago that only found she was pregnant when she went for an ultrasound on her back due to back pain and she was full term!
Allow yourself to go through the feelings, but put your thoughts about not knowing in perspective because pregnancy symptoms are not always obvious and can be put down to plenty of other things.
Iv has that happen. If it helps any it was less likely to be a viable pregnancy which is likely why it did. It happens with the pill.
