This is Part 4 of my miscarriage journey. This video follows me as I’m taken back into the room for the D&C, and then later that evening after we’ve returned home — where I was met with deep care, tenderness, and love from my family. The procedure itself was medically simple. Emotionally, it was heavy. From check-in through the procedure, I found myself sobbing and feeling incredibly low, almost suspended in a state of despair. Much of that experience was internal and quiet. My mama was with me, and the support of my family carried me through the day. The final clip was filmed later that night, once we were home. I was drowsy from anesthesia and pain medication, my body recovering while my heart was still catching up — surrounded by people who loved me and helped hold me through it. I’ll be sharing a fuller reflection and retelling of this experience from this side of healing in Part 5.
