My miscarriage


What a way to start my blog. I am miscarrying my baby. Or embryo. Or whatever you want to call it.

I found out I was pregnant earlier this month, and decided to create this blog to vent and spare my family and friends from hearing about every little thing that was happening during my pregnancy.

I found out earlier today that I am miscarrying my baby.

I started having light brown spotting last night. It continued to this morning. Then the blood got bright red. With clots. Now, every women who's ever been pregnant probably knows that bright red blood with clots is not a good sign for your pregnancy. I called my Dr.'s office and got an emergency appointment to see what was going on. The prognosis: not good. The HCG level in my blood was too low for where I was supposed to be in my pregnancy, and the Dr. said that I was having a miscarriage.

I feel numb. I spent 2 weeks pregnant, and I am so sad to say that I am not pregnant anymore. I have no baby. I am empty. I expect to see the tissue from my baby embryo on my pad soon. This feeling sucks, and I do not wish it on anyone.

I'm spending tonight drinking wine and wallowing. Tomorrow I will try to move on.
