My mood is all over the place right now.
Yesterday I had my follow up appointment and my attitude was far outside of what it usually is, and what I usually would like it to be.
I certainly wasn't acting pleasantly, that's for sure.
And last night my mother in law came over for dinner and she asked how my appointment was. I had to tell her I forgot what happened during it because I was about to lose it at her for continuing to ask over and over about every little detail. What the doctor said, when we can try again, am I healing? So on and so on...
I don't think I made eye contact with anyone other than my husband the whole day.
Yeah...my mood is not so good.
I'm also in a strange mood to change as much as possible. My hair, paint colors, buying a new dining room table...
It's kind of weird...
“Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here?"
"That depends a good deal on where you want to get to."
"I don't much care where –"
"Then it doesn't matter which way you go.”
― Lewis Carroll, Alice in Wonderland
I stripped the wallpaper from the living room and glowered when my husband gave his opinion on the new wall color.
Remember that your hormones are all out of whack. In addition to grieving, you also have to deal with all of that crap. It's totally unfair.
I'm so sorry for your loss! ((HUGS)) You & your husband are in my thoughts!
(And I am REALLY sorry that you had to endure dinner with an overbearing MIL!!!)
It takes time to heal. Do whatever it is that you need to do to heal (well maybe not drugs or whatever but....) and commnunicate with your husband.
Like I said I am here if you need it.

"People talk about escapism as if it's a bad thing... Once you've escaped, once you come back, the world is not the same as when you left it. You come back to it with skills, weapons, knowledge you didn't have before. Then you are better equipped to deal with your current reality."

You said that there was a stigma about having a miscarriage, that is true when it is not talked about. Talk about your experience. You might not know who you will help by talking or who you will find out has been there done that.
Please hold on to your husband and let him react the way he needs.
