From joy to sorrow....

Going to the OBGYN is usually a happy occasion for expecting parents. It's a time to hear your baby's heartbeat and see them on the ultrasound screen. However, for some, this experience can quickly turn into heartbreak and devastation. That's what happened to me. 

Due to Covid-19 restrictions, my husband couldn't join me, and during my OBGYN appointment, I found out that I had suffered a miscarriage on March 11, 2021.  I had to undergo a D&C procedure, but it didn't work as expected, and I had to take medication to help the remaining tissue pass through. 

The pain of a miscarriage is physical, emotional, and spiritual, and it's a loss that stays with you forever.

If you know someone who has suffered a miscarriage, it's important to be supportive and understanding. Allow them to grieve in their own way and listen to them. Their pain is real and valid, and it's okay for them to feel angry, sad, or confused. We need to talk more openly about miscarriage and create a culture where those who have experienced this loss feel supported and understood.

As a Christian, it's natural to question why God allowed this to happen. However, it's important to remember that God is a loving and compassionate God who grieves with us in our pain. We can turn to Him for comfort and strength and trust in His plan for our lives, even in the darkest moments. He can bring good out of even the most challenging situations and use our struggles to help us grow in faith and character.

If you are struggling with the pain of a miscarriage, know that God is with you. He sees your pain, hears your cries, and cares deeply for you. Turn to Him for comfort and strength, and remember that you are not alone. There is a community of believers who can offer support and understanding as you walk through this difficult journey.
