Depression months after losing a baby?
I lost my pregnancy after only being pregnant for about 2 months. I know that's not long to be pregnant and it was literally just a couple of days before losing it that i found out about being pregnant (and yes I'm sure i was pregnant and not just 'late' as I had a doctor confirm it). At first, I was okay, but now its one month after I was meant to have the baby had I stayed pregnant, and I am extremely upset... I was upset about a week after losing it and the level of sadness has sky rocketed since then. I feel alone and terrible and I just need to know, if you have been through this, how can i cope with it?

No, this is absolutely normal. I am so sorry to hear of your loss. You are thinking in terms of what should have been, and it is probably hard, especially seeing other people out with their babies, since the weather (at least where I live) is getting nicer. Talk to someone. Do you have an OB/GYN? See if she/he can recommend someone who specializes in the field of women who have lost babies. Not, that it will be replacing it, because you can never replace a baby, but are you trying again? Good luck in whatever you do.

Had a miscarriage almost a year ago. I was about 12 weeks when it happened and we actually didn't know I had a miscarriage until we went to my OB for my 2nd apt and they couldn't hear the heartbeat. Only after having an ultrasound did they discover, I had lost the baby. I felt so devasted and cried for weeks. Everytime I saw someone with a baby or went to the store and saw baby items, I would immediately break down. It was really hard on me and bc of the miscarriage, I took time off of work and ended up getting fired for it, which just made everthing worse. I swore that I would have no more kids (I already have 2) and that I wasn't going to try for another one. 7 months later however, I found out I was pg again. This time, I'm carrying the baby just fine. Didn't know for sure what caused the miscarriage and there really isn't a way to find out but with help of friends/family I got through it and I know you will too. It's hard, it really is but just remember children are gifts from God and any gift can be taking away. It's unfortunate but things happen for a reason. Don't try to force yourself to 'get over it'. Take your time and everyday that passes will be easier than the day before.
Sorry to hear about your loss.

First I can imagine how you feel, The same thing happened to me. I was sad for a while because it is something you will never forget but stay positive even though it is hard. It is not your fault so don't constantly blame yourself. It's not worth it. Just hold your head up and try to remember it as simply a fact in history not a constant reality. Thats what helped me.

it's normal to feel upset.
I'm sorry about your loss.
i also just wanted to say that it doesn't matter how long you're pregnant before a miscarriage, you still think about being a mother.
I wish you all the best for future babies <3
