July 2019

I hadn’t been feeling very well for a few weeks, but it hadn’t crossed my mind that I was pregnant as it was nothing like my pregnancy with my 1st. It wasn’t until the afternoon on the 14th of July that I decided to take a test, and to my surprise I was pregnant!

I phoned the doctors that day, and had an appointment the next. Due to the circumstances and not knowing how far along I was, I was booked in for a scan at EPAC. I found out that I was 9 weeks pregnant, I was so shocked but excited until she told me it was bad news.

I was booked in for a D&C on the 18th. My life fell apart in a matter of 4 days. People think that because you already have a child, it doesn’t hurt as much but it sure does. I feel like a piece of me is missing. I will forever wonder who that baby would have been.
