I was very excited when I found out I was pregnant.

I was very excited when I found out I was pregnant. I had to wait for my 8 weeks to see the OB for the first appointment. Everything was tough already from the start of me finding out. From family drama due to the pregnancy to insurance issues. I was nervous walking into the appointment. The OB started the ultrasound and already looked concerned and it was confirmed that I had a "missed abortion". NO signs nor symptoms, the fetus never developed. I was devastated. I've blamed myself since I was full of all this stress, I let everyone I know and love surround me with negativity. I am still dealing with insensitive comments occasionally. Im still hurting, but I am newly pregnant again and I am trying my hardest to not stress and keep this environment of mine as calm as possible. That means stepping away from people who I would love to share my moments with.
