Just told everyone we’re pregnant, now experiencing miscarriage right before Christmas!

So I found out about 5 weeks ago we were pregnant. I’m about 8-9 weeks along. It’s crazy because I was so sure it stuck.. we felt comfortable took announcement pictures, sent cards out to friends and family and this weekend I just started experiencing major miscarriage symptoms. Heavy bleeding, loss of breast tenderness, now a 3 negative pregnancy test. I’m so freaked out. Family is asking us to come over for presents in 2 hours and I’m in so much pain and can barely walk. I am at such a loss as to what to do.. do I just say hey I can today I’m having a miscarriage? I think they’ll all be shocked. I’m so worried about the judgement and ignorance

Get off the internet and go to the hospital

"We are experiencing some complications and can't make it."
Let them make of it whatever they will. At this point it's more important that you not stress out.

Judgement and ignorance?!?
I don't get it. This can't be true.
How terrible. 😕

I mean even my husband was like oh let’s just suck it up and go see a movie last night when this all started.. no perspective or compassion @helenS

@Brassm0nk3y There's gotta be a change in your life, sister. You can't live like that.

Sorry we are experiencing a bit of a crisis that needs tending to. Can not explain right now. More info to follow.

And get to a doctor. I’ve heard of this happening before and with bed rest the pregnancy was still successful - get going.

Ditch the holiday. Your health comes first. I'm sure they will be supportive and sorry for your loss. That's what friends and family are for. Get to a doctor asap!

You're facing something intense I think its okay to think selfishly- esp about your health- not about their judgement. Hope you go to the doctors and heal.

That's unfortunate. The first thing you have to do is to get some medical attention. Everything else should be dealt after.

3 month is standard. I waited even longer since I had a loss at 5 months. Tell one person in EACH circle of your life :work, church family...to ask people not to bring it up. That person will communicate on your behalf, and it will really help. People are big hearted.
