TW: Miscarriage, Politics, Abortion

I haven't discussed this with many people, and I never got the chance to announce it. So whoever has me on multiple platforms, please keep this here to tumblr.

Today was the final appointment to determine the viablity of my pregnancy. We found out ironically on April 1st of this year. It was unplanned, but welcomed and wanted.

Today I found out my body reabsorbed the embryo weeks ago. Im supposed to be at 12 weeks, but never made it past 6 weeks. For my own safety and comfort, I will be proceeding with termination via a pill. The alternate route is either a D&C, which I do not feel necessary with only a gestational sac and yolk, or waiting up to 6 more weeks to naturally miscarry.

I'm not sharing this for people to pity me, or for attention. I'm sharing this because it directly applies to current political issues. If I was in a different state, this procedure and situation would be highly illegal. This child was welcomed, and wanted, and ready to be provided for. I still would be punished by law for this.

This is why we must fight these laws. These things happen naturally, and women should not be attacked for this. We already suffer enough, having to deal with these losses, to be punished ontop of it is beyond ridiculous. I'm so glad I am somewhere I can do this safely, for my health and the health of any future children that may come along. But that doesn't mean I should stop fighting for other womens rights. Everyone deserves the right for humane treatment and control of their bodies.

Keep fighting for womens rights. Keep fighting for control over our own bodies. Stay strong through our losses.

The test came back yes,

You did not stay long enough.

No Susan, it will not be okay. Having 2 kids doesnt change the fact that i lost one. Having 2 kids doesnt change the fact that i cant have anymore.

The world felt too big, as I held my stomach.

As I held you, too little to even be seen.

But you were never little, were you?

You’re like the stars.

Small from a distance but a roaring fire up close.

And perhaps that’s where you always belonged.

For you are more than my stars. You are my Sky.

My miscarriage story: I lost my baby at 10 weeks.

Finding out you had an early miscarriage is… there are actually no words for it. I know because I’ve been there in 2019. I found so much comfort in reading other people’s stories about their miscarriages or watching their videos. I’m now ready to share my story of miscarriage. There are so many emotions that come up during a miscarriage. You immediately play the blame game, how could I have…

The 24-year-old fell to her knees, and drew her hands to her face in an effort to protect herself during the onslaught, which only ended when people heard a commotion and ran out…
