Hi, I'm Lisa, just found this site after trawling through pages and pages of miscarriage information trying to come to terms with it all, it helps knowing there is so much support here.
I miscarried on Friday, my first miscarriage, I was 17 weeks and 5 days and gave birth at home to a perfect little boy. This weekend I have been through every emotion imaginable and I'm still crying while I type this. I feel so cheated, so angry that my body let us down, so sad that I'll never see my longed for son grow up, never hold him, cuddle him. I should have been protecting him and I couldn't. I can't bear to go into the downstairs bathroom where it all happened, I can't even look in there.
I walked out of hospital on friday night and it felt so unfair that I was leaving my baby behind when he should have been coming home with us. I walked passed a woman in labour thinking that should be me, longing for those pains but at the right time.
I thought I had cried all there was to cry on friday and that I would get up saturday and all would be back to normal, how very wrong I was, I now wonder if it will ever be normal again. All I can think about is my baby.
All I want to do is turn off the lights, sit in front of meaningless tv trying to forget the pain and for my OH to hold me.
Today is my first day on my own, I'm glad for the space to just let it all out and cry and cry but at the same time I don't want to be on my own.
I want to get on, be busy, keep my mind off it but I can't take that first step to doing anything right now.
Thanks for listening, I hope writting how I feel might just help in some little way.
I'm so so sorry for all of you that have had to experience this.
Lisa
