CW; Baby Loss 🕯
Sharing a bit of my own story today 💜
I've had 3 miscarriages. Mostly early, but one went to nearly my second trimester. I didn't know it then, but endo was behind it all.
I had Lu before all this happened, and I'm so deeply blessed with him. His mates are the footie team I dreamed of having and I kinda wanted my home to be the safe home. They dubbed me the cool mum because of the car drives with tunes and the sleepovers with no rules. It was all maddening at the time, while I was losing my babies. 🪽🪽🪽
The doctors made it into such a nothing, and that made me swallow my grief.
Today it comes in strong waves of so many emotions. I sit with them, I feel them, I talk to them and I dance with them. And I hold that version of me who was so deeply lost when she lost those 3 babies.
Today I'm resting and being so gentle with myself, and I hope you all can too. To all parents, especially those from my q***r community, my Black community and my endo community, because we so so often get lost in the mix 💛🕯️
