Hello Sammie, I am very sorry you have lost your baby and had to go through this traumatic experience. Everything inside your heart much of screamed out about having to take the methotrexate whilst your head knew it was the only thing you could do. How are you feeling physically now are you healing ok? Emotionally it must be a rollercoaster and trying to hold it together for your other children. Have you had any thoughts to what you are going to do for the future?

Sam I'm so sorry, not only for you loss , but for everything else you
have had to deal with at the same time. Life throws us curve balls some
times- it just seems you have had a few all at once. I hope you are
feeling physically better, as for emotionally, it can take a while -
everyone is different - take the time you need to grieve. Please feel
free to come on here whenever you feel the need to talk, express your
feelings, ask questions or just to rant and scream. There is always a
kind and understanding ear or shoulder waiting to help - the ladies on
here are fab. I'm Jo, by the way - 34 with 3 kids and 2 MC's under my
belt. Take care and I hope you are feeling brighter soon.
