Two year anniversary and I feel broken?

Two years ago today, I suffered a miscarriage. I only found out I was pregnant when it was too late and I was already losing my baby and it was too late to do anything.

I'm sitting here at work, tears streaming down my face. I can't stop crying. I feel so broken, so useless. I know I need to pull myself together and work... I'm trying to hide at my desk and avoid everyone, especially the two pregnant ladies. I wish I could just go home and hide there. How do I explain it to my boss? What can I do? I'm so sad right now.

Update:

My boss doesn't know about the miscarriage. I didn't work for him back then. And he's located at another office in another city. I'd have to phone or email him. I know that if I phone I'll cry again (I've just managed to calm myself down a little). I'm meeting with him next week. I suppose I could promise to explain it to him then.

    Oh dear :(

    You are not broken and useless, but it's normal and understandable to be as unhappy as you are. Can you go get a cup of tea? Does your boss know you had a miscarriage - can you not just ask to go home?

    I am sorry for all you are going through. I bet the other people that are pregnant around you are not making this any easier on you. Perhaps you can tell your boss you are having a family issue and you can go home. I hope you can pull your self together and feel better.

    You seam like a good caring person. Things are going to be Ok. You know that they always work out and this is going to work out too. If you just can't go on with today just tell them you need to go home. They will understand. You don't need to tell anyone what is bothering you. Just tell them its some personal things that are bothering you.

    I hope you feel better

    If you realy need to go home just call your boss and say. I am very sorry I am having some personal issues, I tried to come in to work today because I want to do a good job but I can't function. I realy need to go home because I keep crying. Would it be ok with you if I take the rest of today off to deal with my family situation?

    I would hold my head up. Always love and remember my baby. No need to feel like you need to move on or forget. Just smile. And have plans of getting pregnant again definitely. No need for it to replace what was lost either. You can always remember and speak about losing your baby. Remember that miscarriages happen. They do. But you can always keep your miracle in your heart and mind. :) You're gonna be ok.

    I don't know where you rely religiously but you should pray for strength from God. I pray to him all the time especially when i am done. I feel like God is my own personal journal and i just give the journal all my problems, worries, and love. That is the best thing to do. Talking to family members is good as well, and enjoying the other things that you love and things that love you. Just know that your child is in a better place and it just wasn't time for you yet, so don't give up.
