Thank you guys for all your support. I guess I just don't know how to handle this. I am very sad, but I don't want to sit around and cry all the time. I just hold it in and try to be strong. My children don't know yet and i don't know how to tell them. Today my son told my brother I was having a baby and I just hid away because I didn't know what to do. I know I have to face this, but I don't know how.
I don't know how to deal with this. I mean, if I never found out I was pregnant then I would have just thought I was having a heavy period. I guess I just don't know anymore.
Stephanie,
There's no right way to handle this. You feel what you feel. Yes, these early pregnancy tests have their downside. A lot of lost pregnancies were never identified before the home test kits came along.
But that's beside the point. For however long you had the baby, that child was real to you. I remember when I found out I was pregnant the first time, by the time I was down in the parking lot of the doctor's office I had already pushed her in the stroller, sent her off to elementary school, visited colleges with her and planned her wedding reception. All in my head. I lost that baby and I'll never forget her or the day she was supposed to be born.
Oh, gee. I've done the thing I hated the most then. All these other women coming to tell me about their experiences. I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
If you would like to talk about this off board, please don't hesitate to call on me. I promise I'll listen and I won't inflict my own experience on you.

I've got a book that really helped me then and if you email me your address, I would like to send it to you.
I'm so sorry.
Love,
Gina

Thank you for telling me how you felt. It doesn't bother me at all, it actually helps me not to feel all alone in being sad about this. I know that sounds stupid but I feel like people think I am crazy to be sad because I didn't know my baby and I wasn't pregnant very long.
But your right, it was very real to me and then I wonder what I would have had.
Your story really helped me and I really appreciate it. I don't mind hearing other peoples story. I hate being sympathized by others. I dont know why but I have always had a problem with this and it is not people on the board, it is my family. I hate people looking at me (in person) and telling me how sorry they are.

Stephanie,
I'm very sorry for your loss. And just like Gina said there are no wrong feelings, especially with something like this. Whatever feelings you're having, they are valid ones.
Please take care of you right now.
Again, I'm sorry for your loss.

Steph,
I hope you are feeling better physically. We have been through this a few times, I know its very hard. Its just a way the body says that something is not right.
Best Regards,
Tom
