From people who came through it
“To whoever needs this: I was where you are a year and a half ago. The worst part was the scan with no heartbeat. This year I did a 5k, slowly. Things come back, slower than you'd like but they do. Praying for you.”
annacards · been through miscarriage and pregnancy loss“If you've just found this place, in 2022 I was exactly where you are. The worst part was scared to try again. I'm volunteering here now. Hang on.”
Sanduni L. · been through miscarriage and pregnancy loss“I was in the same place a year and a half ago. Her name was going to be. That was every day. This week I went back to my evening class. The bad days get further apart. Hang on.”
garden_ink21 · been through miscarriage and pregnancy loss“Hello from the other side of it. A few years back, that was me. Back then, her name was going to be. This morning I sang in the car. It comes back slowly, like feeling in your fingers after the cold. Sending love.”
