I was googling every ultrasound and what it looks like at every week point.
“I hadn’t bled and nothing had changed. They said they can confirm nothing had continued to grow and there’s absolutely no heartbeat and we’d lost the baby and no glimmer of hope left there.”Madi said she was unsure whether or not to share her experience, but was determined to raise awareness around miscarriage.“Not that I felt alone, because I definitely had support, but I felt like a minority. I felt different.
