My heart goes out to @chrissyteigen
I’m grateful when women share about their miscarriages because too often these tragedies happen in silence.
1 in 5 pregnancies end in miscarriage.
You are not alone
You didn’t do anything wrong
There are no right words for this kind of loss

When I had mine it was my 35th birthday. I was on a business trip in Indianapolis. I remember being in the bathroom, bleeding and crying and thinking it was the worst moment of my life. And it was. I’d never felt so alone.
For weeks afterward I struggled with this bizarre idea that I’d done something wrong. Even though I had a perfectly healthy five year old boy, I felt ashamed. As if I was broken somehow.
For days, as women comforted me with their own stories of loss, I kept wondering why.

Everyone had a story. But no one had ever whispered a word until I became part of this secret club I never wanted to be a member of.
I understand we each grieve the way we know how, but the silence made it feel shameful. Why don’t we allow ourselves to rage?
