Still bleeding but in that brownish
staining way. Pains across my
lower abdomen. One month since
the miscarriage. Last time, it
didn't linger this long. I thought
I healed relatively quickly but
now I can't remember.
this time, I'm keeping blogs,
a calendar and doing my best to
document so I'll remember.
found out another woman I know,
an author, speaker, syndicated
columnist and pretty high profile
woman, had 2 miscarriages and
an ectopic pregnancy before
having three children.
this is why I think women need to talk
more about it BEFORE it happens.
it being miscarriage. I have heard
more about women's miscarriages
(friends, acquaintances, strangers)
since miscarrying than I ever did
before. In fact, miscarriage was nothing
more than a single page in every
pregnancy book I purchased to
help me understand what was
happening to me when I was pregnant.
so dismissive. so taboo.
not anymore. I'm going to be screaming
"miscarriages happen!" from the rooftops
soon. or at least throughout cyberspace.
the web is my soapbox!
