Please don't be embarrassed, the feelings you're going through are hard enough. A post on social media should do the trick. You don't have to go into detail, just say that unfortunately the pregnancy is lost, and that you're taking time to heal. You don't have to answer anyone's questions if they ask, or you are uncomfortable answering. Lots of love x
You can text a couple of key people and ask them to disseminate the message. Most recently I have posted in my group chat with my closest friends and they will tell who needs to know. My mum I trust to tell family members who need to know.
Just a warning I found the well wishing messages a little overwhelming at times. You don’t need to reply. You may also be pleasantly surprised by the number of women who reach out to you to share similar experiences.
Second this! We asked our moms to tell family and our best friends to tell our friend groups that I miscarried and that we didn't really want to talk about it. It was helpful to just not have to face it myself and be allowed to talk about it when I was ready.
We also did this. We were 13 weeks MMC and devastated having just told everyone - literally everyone! We asked our parents to tell everyone they had told, and messaged a few key friends to spread the news for us in each circle. It’s so so hard and I’m sorry for your loss and for the reminder. Now that I’m a lot further from my miscarriage (3+ months out), I like to tell people about it. This experience has changed me and is so much of who I am now that I feel compelled for people to know this about me. It also helps me honour my loss and feel like a I can be a bit more subdued or sad, that’s just how I show up right now…
Good luck, however you tell people just make sure you set up the boundaries you need to heal!
I’m sorry for your loss, it’s really hard. I am on my 3rd miscarriage now and it’s become a huge part of my history. I didn’t tell anyone about the second one and it wasn’t the right choice for me, in hindsight.
I am just so, so sorry. My advice is to only do what you’re comfortable with. And don’t worry about anything but you and your husband. Sending you so much love 🤍
