Baby didn't make it.

After almost 5years of trying.. I finally got pregnant this year.. But at my 7th week.. yesterday, I bled and went to KKH. I had a miscarriage. Apparently the Dr said that my baby should have grown to 10-11 weeks by now. Meaning to say during my previous scan did they see wrongly Coz at first the person scanning couldn't find the heartbeat. But last minute she tried and managed to find a tiny bit. Coz it didn't grow any bigger than 3mm since that day. How do I cope with this loss? Everytime I wake up from my sleep, my heart aches and it feels like a nightmare. I can't bring myself to celebrate Eid Adha today. I just feel crushed.

I'm so sorry for your loss. I feel you as I lost a baby at 10 weeks. Honestly, no words will help take away the pain, all I can tell you is: 1. Don't blame yourself. It is not your fault. Miscarriages are often due to genetics and there is nothing you could have done better 2. Be gentle with yourself. Understand some days will be difficult and take it one day at a time. Don't look too far ahead, just focus on today, right now 3. Grieve as long as you need to. I took 6 months to a year to recover. Cry as much as you need, it's okay. One day it won't hurt as much anymore Take care of yourself ❤️
