I’m sad to read what happened to you Michelle, it’s a very traumatic time. Like you said in your post people just assume it’s like a heavy period and don’t think about the possibility that you might actually have to give birth..people expect you to be over it! Like yourself, I lost my little girl at 15 weeks, I went for the a scan I was told there could be abnormalities but I wasn’t prepared for what was to come. I had to go back in a couple of weeks for another scan..this time to be told my babies heart had stopped! My husband had been with me every step of the way with my other two ,until COVID arrived and had to be told this by myself. I had to take a tablet and then come back in two days to give birth, I had sections with my other two but to have to give birth and come home with no baby. Like yourself I too had a funeral for Emily which I cannot believe we had to do, I’m just waiting for post mortem results so will see what this brings! The only difference with us our little ones were too precious for this earth and born early than they should have been! More had to be done to make people aware of this, it isn’t just a period..it’s a loss. Xx

I have taken so much comfort in reading your story and sharing mine. I do think that talking about it really helps. COVID definitely hasn’t helped with anything,that also prolongs the agonising wait for results. Lots of love right back at ye xxx
