There was a pause. It’s easier to call early pregnancy a private matter—much like domestic violence and sexual abuse—in order to keep women “in their place”. If someone tells you, “Don’t worry, you already have another child”, tell them that this child may not have been born but it’s still your child. And if someone tells you, “You’re lucky because you never got to meet the baby,” tell them to ask you how old the child would have been many years from now, for you will know. Of course it’s easy to trivialize miscarriage as a “women’s issue” and silence millions of women like it never happened.
