Hi l have been lurking for a while this is my first post, l had my 2nd mc on 11th Aug. 1st Angel went 6th Dec 10. I had 2 weeks off this time and thought l was coping not too bad but this last week l seem to have lost the plot l feel like im going mad. l kept breaking down at work im so down just feel so overwhelmed, angry at others who are pregnant and basically just feel like ive lost me. I have a lovely husband and family but still feel so alone and that no one understands. My gp signed me off again yest for 2 weeks and gave me sleeping tablets my work were ok but l feel like people think im overreacting and that somehow because its my 2nd i should be able to cope more. l just needed to get it all out to people who understand.Last time l knew things werent going well with the pregnancy but this time i had an early scan at 8 weeks all going well and then went for 12 week scan and it had stoppped growing at 8 weeks just doesnt seem fair. I still feel like its not really happened just want it to all go back to being such a happy time. x
So down :((

It's because people always say "there's a medical reason" or "it's just cells at that stage" - whereas you know how it made you feel.
I recommend Bach Flower remedies, start with Rescue Remedy Night if you can get it as it has a remedy for shock and also for repetitive thoughts. If you can get Walnut too that'll help for the chanegs you're going through and to help you adapt.
It sucks but for other people it's just not a big deal, they don't appreciate the fact you probably (if my experience is anything to go by) feel like a failure, like an unworthy woman....
stay on here, keep posting, theyt helped me LOADS

I'm SO sorry for your losses. 
I'm in the same boat with people that don't understand. I'd say I probably told about 20 or more different women about my MC...and of those...only ONE person had experienced a miscarriage!! Don't get me wrong, I'm happy they haven't...but for something that is so common...I'm sure not feeling that way.
As for all the others...they just don't get it fully...they don't. some are more compassionate than others, but it can make you feel lonely.
have you tried a support group (in person) or counseling? They might have some words of wisdom!

How are you getting on? x
Hi there thats so nice of you to ask, lm maybe a wee bit better than the previous ranting post l put on, the last couple of days my mood has lifted a little. I went home to my parents for a few days this week so maybe that has helped, the sleeping tablets are working too. I go back to my gp mon morning not sure about work yet sometimes think it would be a good distraction but dont know if ready yet. How are you doing?
