Not feeling up to doing much today

This is hard for me to write so here are the basics of what happened.

Last night I went to see my Ob/Gyn because I have some problems with my period that were starting to get downright scary. They did an exam and informed me that since I was soaking through about a pad an hour and what they saw on the internal exam, I need to go to the emergency room immediately.

Bottom line is that I had a miscarriage for a pregnancy that I didn't even know I was carrying.

I went to see my doctor again today and my body is recovering from the internal trauma. He gave me advice and a laundry list of things to look out for and things that might happen that would be OK. He is the doctor that delivered Caroline over 4 years ago so we showed him a picture of the little girl she has become.

So physically I am OK. Emotionally I am a bit confused as to how I am feeling since I didn't even know that I was carrying. I have been told to take it easy for a couple of days and give my body sometime to heal. Peter has been very supportive, as have the kids.

I am grateful for everyone who helped me last night and today.
