Miscarriage grief

I’m mid-20s, unmarried, single, and I think I’ve had 2 miscarriages, going through second one now and experiencing a lot of grief.

I support anyone who wants to be a parent, or wants to have an abortion - neither option is for me. I don’t want to become a parent but if I have a baby I will not abort it, I would consider adoption or raising the child myself. That is my personal preference.

I didn’t know I was pregnant and now I’m 70% certain this is a miscarriage.

It’s just hit me today what has happened. I don’t know anyone else who has experienced this with my particular circumstances, only couples actively trying to have kids. I would like to know if others have gone through something similar to me.

Hello @morstuavitamea,

I’m so sorry to hear about your miscarriage and that you believe you are experiencing a second. You say you are experiencing a lot of grief now, and this is so understandable.

I’m sure someone will be along to offer their support. You might already be familiar with our other Online Bereavement Support services, but if not, you can find out more about bereavement support, Grief Kind Spaces, and our Grief Guide self-help tools by visiting the link.

Another good place to get support is The Miscarriage Association, which offers emotional support and advice. They have a helpline on 01924 200799, or you can email them at info@miscarriageassociation.org.uk

Take care - keep reaching out,

Alex

Sending comfort in whatever works for now. :diamond_with_a_dot:
