Miscarriage/pregnancy loss

I can't cry, feeling guilty.

I had a m/c 2 weeks ago, I was 5 weeks.

We haven't been trying for long (since christmas),we both want children very much.

I haven't cried since it happened, I just feel like I can't talk about it. My partner has tried to get me to talk, but I feel that I can't talk to him about it or any of my family or friends.

I feel so guilty that I can't cry or show any sort of emotion. I know that the m/c isn't my fault, it happens, it's part of life, sadly.

Should I feel bad for not crying???

No! Everyone deals with grief differently (and this is grief). As long as you are not trying to hold things in then just go with how you feel. There is no right or wrong way. Sorry for your loss. Wshing you lots of luck and happiness in the future.

Hi!I m/c last week between my 5th and 6th wk. still so fresh. I am not yet going back to work because I still feel so weak although it was natural. It was complete and need not to have d&c. I am at a point where I am in denial. This is just so hard but I am coping. I am keeping my communication with hubby open, as in I tell him everything that goes on in my mind. That should help in your case, too. Don't hold back-- it gives relief to share what you have inside to the people closest to you.
In my case, we have been trying for 1 year & 9 months-- i thought one of us is infertile.. so I looked at it on the bright side that I never have to worry because I am capable of getting pregnant, only maybe it is not yet God's time. And if I ever find out again that I am once more pregnant I hope it would be God's perfect time. I couldn't anymore bear the pain of losing another baby.
