When It’s a Miscarriage

Thank you for listening to her story.

I had my last miscarriage (of 3) in April of 2008. I have always been slim and petite but I have lost about 18 pounds since the miscarriage and now fluctuate between 115 and 118 pounds at 5 ft.

It’s very hurtful to see people excited and happy asking me if or when I’m expecting since I can’t seem to carry full term and I want to be a mother. It makes me vulnerable because I feel obligated to explain how I got this way, especially to people that know me.

I used to love my body now I spend all my time trying to cover it up. I feel so unattractive.
