I have recently miscarried my baby at around eleven weeks. Both my boyfriend and I had intended on keeping our baby and raising it. There were a lot of health complications, like preeclampsia (developed at 9 wks), constant sickness with anything I ate or drank, and placenta previa (developed at 6 wks). I had started getting healthier and feeling better, and we lost the baby 7/14/14 at night. to make matters worse, we had to wait until the next morning for the baby to be suctioned out because it was not able to be passed normally.
My boyfriend seems to have already moved on from the incident, but I am not okay. I don't sleep anymore. I have no appetite for anything. I have no motivation or desire to do anything besides stay in bed all day. I cry every day, and have had a few panic attacks since then. My blood pressure, which was once low before the pregnancy, is now hypertensive. I feel like a huge piece of me died with my baby, and I don't know that I will ever be alright again.

Now, nearly a month later, I am not better at all. I'm getting ready to return back to school, and I don't know how I am going to handle being away from home and alone.

Assumptions

An assumption is an unexamined belief: what is thought to be true without ever really realizing that we think in that way. For better or worse, understanding starts with entertaining the idea that something is true.  Truly profound thoughts generally come to light from the relaxation of these (flawed) assumptions.  This is where I find myself today...Perhaps, one of the more significant drivers to pushing down the loss and grief at the time of the accident, ignoring it and mindlessly walking…See More
