    So sorry to hear that. Maybe focusing on yourself will help with the grief process. Reminds me a little of Abby on the Biggest Loser a couple of seasons ago. Welcome back.:flowerforyou:

    I'm so sorry for your loss. I didn't have ectopic, but I have lost 3 babies (all within 1 year), but on the happy note, 2 months after losing my 3rd baby I became pregnant for the 4th time - I now have a happy healthy 5 year old. I also had another little girl 2 1/2 years ago.

    I am sending a friend request, that way if you need to chat, you can send me private messages...

    I'm sorry for your loss :(
    Make sure you allow yourself to grieve, even if people around you don't understand what you're feeling. That was your baby, it was a life, take the time you need to cope with that.

    I had a miscarriage at 9 weeks pregnant and I suffered in silence for a very long time. My doctor believed I never really dealt with the loss (and I probably didn't because the father was very emotionally abusive & made fun of how I felt because It didn't impact him at all). That's why I say, don't let anyone around you dictate how you should feel about the loss. I struggled because I didn't let myself grieve the way I should have. I understand the devastation, if you need to talk, I'm here for you.

    So sorry to hear of your devestating loss. I cannot directly relate but I did have a preganancy scare when I was 7 weeks along and the fear was crippling. As a parent, the fear of losing your child is immeasurable. I cannot imagine the pain you and other ladies who have responded to you have gone through. I do think you will find a treasure trove of support here and I wish you luck.

    Thank you so much for all the support! I can't believe how lovely you all are - I'm very touched. I will add those who have offered tomorrow, I'm going to put my kids to bed now and sit down for my last naughty meal in a while with the husband. Thank you again you lovely lovely people xx

    I am so sorry for everything you have had to go through. I'm so proud of you for comming back so soon. When I lost my Jade at 18 weeks, I layed on the couch for the first week and didn't do anything. I ate 3 pieces of peanut butter toast and that was all I did. I definitely avoided everything and didn't take care of myself. You sound like you are on the right track. I'm rooting for you!

    So sorry for your loss. Losing a baby is so painful. I too lost a baby at 8 weeks along. You're in my prayers and good luck on your journey to getting back into fitness <3

    I am so sorry for your loss. M/c is hard no matter how far along you are. Maybe you can use exercise as a release to help deal with any grief and anger. Hugs.

    Well done on rejoining. I was on here last summer, lost 17lb. Then in November found out I was pregnant so lapsed completely but had a missed miscarriage at 13/40. After that I pretty much lost all motivation for a while and got seriously depressed.
    I've now been back on here for 40 days and have relost 7 of the 12 pounds I gained back and am finally feeling in a much better place.
    Starting to eat better and exercise again has been the best thing for picking me up. Hope you find it helps as much for you.
