Miscarriage.. having PCOS

Hi ladies,
There are some triggers in this post - so please be kind ❤️
I tested positive over a week ago, on 3 tests, over 4 days. I had multiple symptoms, going on for 3 weeks.

I was super excited, having struggled to get pregnant the last 3 years. I work up on Thursday with a huge dark red clot, about the size of a loonie, and then light pink discharge ( very minimal ) for the rest of the day - didn’t even leave any marks in my liner.

My period - if on time- was supposed to be on the 18th of may . This clot was on the 22nd of may.

I had some sharp stinging pain in my left side, and was super dizzy. Ended up in emergency for 8 hours, where they confirmed there is now no baby.

I’m heart broken, and thought we finally achieved the “goal “ together of making a baby.

I feel responsible for telling him so soon and getting his hopes up. I’ve talked to him and he reassured me he doesn’t blame me, but I can’t help the feeling of failing.

I was pregnant 7 years ago, and had a miscarriage, this one just feels … different and more emotional I guess …

I’m just looking for some support .. or advice I guess to feel … “ normal “ again. How do you cope with miscarrying a baby, very early , after having tried for so long .. I’m just heart broken 💔

I don’t think there are any shortcuts through grief unfortunately. It tends to hang around until it’s been fully felt. Please don’t blame yourself though, it’s extremely unlikely to be because of anything you did or didn’t do. Most of the time it’s just a genetic problem with that embryo. Hoping you get your rainbow soon ❤️

I am sorry for your loss. I just had my 3rd miscarriage last month. It is not easy especially when you’re in the thick of it.

As soon as I pee on the stick, I tell my
Husband. We have had 3 pregnancies together and 2 been miscarriages. (My other miscarriage was many years ago). He’s in it with you and I don’t think you need to be protecting him from the experience. Of course for men it’s never the same as for us who are pregnant and thinking of it constantly.

Hope you get your rainbow baby soon.
