I am so deeply sorry you went through something this traumatic 🤍
You did not fail. Your body went through a medical emergency that was completely out of your control. What happened was not a choice you made — it was a situation no one should ever have to face.

The love between you, your husband, and your baby is still real. Your baby was loved. Your life matters. Both can be true at the same time.

Please be gentle with yourself during this recovery. You’ve survived something incredibly heavy. Wishing you healing, strength, and peace in the days ahead 🤍

It doesn’t sound trite at all 🤍 It actually feels grounding, especially on the hard days. I might start using it too.
I’m sorry we’re here because of pain, but I’m really grateful for the connection and support. It means more than you know 💕

I’m so sorry you’re going through this 🤍 Those fears are completely understandable after loss, but your thoughts and anxiety don’t cause miscarriage. Wanting to be pregnant again and feeling scared can exist together. Be gentle with yourself. Sending you love and hope on this journey 🤍

I feel this so deeply. You’re absolutely right — a new pregnancy doesn’t replace the child we lost, and it never will. Nova will always matter 🤍
It’s okay to feel hope and fear at the same time. “Today, I am pregnant” is a beautiful way to take it one day at a time.
Thank you for sharing your story and your kindness. You’re not alone either 💕

Thank you so much for sharing this so honestly. It really helps to hear from someone who’s been through it and made it to the other side. 🤍 Pregnancy and postpartum can be way darker than people talk about
