My Boss Made Me Feel Seen During My Pregnancy Loss––I’m Forever Grateful “She didn't know that I was actively miscarrying. She looked at me, and she saw a person.”
, I saw the faint double line of a positive pregnancy test and felt like it was the universe telling me that this was it. A week later, I started bleeding again. Not enough time to really experience any major pregnancy symptoms, or start picking out names, but enough time to be hopeful, figure out my due date and start to wonder what joy this baby would bring to our family.This miscarriage was different than the previous one.
I was going about my day when my boss took a quick look at me and asked the simple question, “Are you okay?” I stayed. Partly because I really did need the distraction this time, but also partly because my boss made me feel valued and appreciated and in turn I wanted to show her that her simple request meant something. It made me feel like more work was a safe space to process my feelings and start to heal.
There are easy days and hard days. Days that I go about my business, and days where I feel waves of sadness and remember my two babies. Days where every single freaking woman walking down the street seems to be nine months pregnant, and days that I spring out of bed ready to conquer the day. That is the hardest part about pregnancy loss: no one can tell you how to feel, or how to cope, because it is yours.
