Hi mommies! Is it possible to experience Post-Partum Depression for someone who had a miscarriage?

I was pregnant for 10 weeks — it was supposed to be our first baby. Just to share a bit of background: last year, I got a new job. At the time, I had no idea I was already pregnant. After the miscarriage, my husband and I decided it would be best for me to resign from work so I could focus on healing. Since then, I’ve been staying at home full-time. My husband is the only one working now, and what he earns is just enough for our everyday needs. I rarely go out, except for groceries or quick errands. I don’t get to see friends much either, partly because of our budget. Lately, I’ve been feeling really lost. Hopeless, even. Like I’m not moving forward and I’m not sure who I am anymore. I lost our baby, and it feels like I lost a part of myself too. Right now, I honestly don’t know how to get back on my feet. I don’t know where to begin. Even with my husband beside me, I still feel alone sometimes. It’s hard to explain the weight of losing not just a child, but also letting go of a career, and having to step away from the life I was building. What makes it harder is that I can’t help but compare myself. I see my siblings, my friends — they seem to be moving forward in life. Some are growing their careers, starting families, traveling, or just enjoying little moments. And while I’m genuinely happy for them, a part of me can’t help but feel left behind. 😞#Needadvice #miscarriage
