In Reply to: I too had a miscarriage - I know how you feel
One of the best words of advice I received was from my OB who said to talk about it to everyone I know. He said he knew I wouldn't want to and I'd want to pretend nothing happened but to try and I would know what he meant. I did, and wow the number of people I found that had previous experiences. There was some comfort in knowing that it is fairly common and just something that happens for no real substandial reason at all. I don't know why its something that is routinely not discussed, just part of society I guess.
I know I will always wonder about that baby and will never forget the EDD or any of that but I do find comfort now in knowing that its not a physical problem with me or my husband. I am somewhat paranoid now that I am pregnant again, constantly checking every symptom to make sure it is "okay" but hopefully the pain will continue to fade as time goes on and I will be able to enjoy my future children without overwhelming thoughts of what could have been. The birth of this one kind of scares me because I think it will bring the MC back to the forefront but I try not to think about it, as only time will tell.
