Ashley, thank you so much for your thoughtful post. I am so sorry for your loss. I had a missed miscarriage at 10 weeks in June 2016 and it was devastating. I have been struggling since on how to talk about it with people. I want to be a voice that normalizes this experience like you are doing but I feel myself tense up and stay silent the opportunity arises. This was my first pregnancy and I just believed that everything was going to be okay. But when it wasn’t, suddenly and out of nowhere, after hearing the heartbeat just weeks before…there aren’t words. But when I see posts like yours it makes me feel just a little less alone so thank you for sharing your experience and shining light on this unspoken subject. I hope that I can do the same soon in my own little way.
