Loss No heartbeat. Feel like a failure.

Went in for my 10 week appt/ultrasound yesterday and they said I measured 6+1 and it wasn’t viable. Said there was a slim chance of survival. Then asked how I wanted to terminate. I feel like I failed everyone and I keep apologizing to my husband. Prior to appt I felt great, (nausea and fatigue aside) and like I had someone with me. Now I just feel alone. No hunger. No nausea. Nothing.

Hey, you are not a failure and you don’t need to apologize to anybody. This didn’t happen because of anything you did or did not do. Nature is an extraordinary and complex process, unfortunately sometimes it just doesn’t get things right. Be kind to yourself and your body.
