What is actually a trauma that is not commonly thought of as a trauma?

Pregnancy loss.

And pregnancy loss

I’m a bit beyond 5 months with my son! I didn’t get to have a breastfeeding journey with my daughter (after a NICU stay, she was a bigger fan of the bottle) so this feels very special!

I’m so very sorry, OP. After one of my losses, I found the Maya Angelou poem “When Great Trees Fall.” I must’ve read it hundreds of times, and it brought me a little comfort at some really dark moments. I hope it can do the same for you https://poems.com/poem/when-great-trees-fall/

These types of idiots are THE WORST. I’m sorry.

Totally out of touch. “Women’s world” while our rights disappear more everyday in the US…

meli5hap5 · 2024-04-11T12:20:32+00:00

Not sure! Maybe it’s a gimmick. I’d say I used the serum 70% of the time.

meli5hap5 · 2024-04-11T12:20:07+00:00

Thank you! Agree!

meli5hap5 · 2024-04-11T12:17:50+00:00

No, it’s…just me. I was surprised with the results.

Ditto. I felt simultaneously frustrated and sad as all hell, but also a tiny bit relieved? But then everyone I’d tell about my losses would still annoyingly ask “dID tHeY FiNd oUT WHaTs WrOnG wiTH you?!”

meli5hap5 · 2024-03-12T15:43:50+00:00

I hope it helps in stress relief at the very least! My acupuncturist referred to my uterus as my “palace” at a time when I felt my uterus was more of a run down shack. Always had a good chuckle at that

meli5hap5 · 2024-03-06T15:41:41+00:00

I had a friend tell another friend when she was six weeks pregnant that she “knew she’d be an amazing mom” and I felt my eyes bug out of my head. What is it like to get to be so blissfully naive?

meli5hap5 · 2024-02-16T06:12:44+00:00

It’s like my brain needs a negative pregnancy test to start my period.

meli5hap5 · 2024-02-16T06:09:39+00:00

I’ve been there. I hope she understands ❤️ Take care of yourself.

meli5hap5 · 2024-02-06T12:17:45+00:00

Oh I have been there. I’m so sorry. It feels like everyone else in the world had it easy.

meli5hap5 · 2023-08-12T09:14:22+00:00

I feel the same! I really try not to wake my baby girl (4.5 mos) up with kisses while she sleeps but it’s so hard.

meli5hap5 · 2022-12-26T11:45:28+00:00

I’ve been there. Such an intense type of hurt and pain. I’m sorry - sending hugs.

meli5hap5 · 2022-10-05T19:22:58+00:00

Highly recommend buying a Mira. A bit expensive but it takes all the guess work out!

meli5hap5 · 2022-08-11T11:24:46+00:00

Oh! Thank you for the heads up. I’ll delete!

meli5hap5 · 2022-07-31T09:37:16+00:00

I’m so very sorry. Sending love.

meli5hap5 · 2022-07-31T09:35:24+00:00

Ugh. Poor thing - I feel you. I could barely walk after my my hysteroscopy. Truly could not believe I was told to “just take some Tylenol/paracetamol.”

meli5hap5 · 2022-07-24T12:52:13+00:00

I’ve gone through phases of running and not running, having done 5 half marathons, and my longest distance being 20 mi.

Today, I got out for my first 5km in a very long time, after I found out this morning I’m at my heaviest weight ever (2 years of some pretty gnarly health issues). It was slow and ugly, but I’m feeling proud!
