Hello everyone, I'm here because I wanted to ask if anyone has experienced what I did recently and how they coped with it.

I had just gotten my positive pregnancy test last week, and couldn't wait to share the good news with my partner. We were both so excited and started sharing names we liked for our little one. But a few days later, I began spotting and went into panic mode. Called the hospital and they fit me in for an emergency scan. Unfortunately, the baby stopped growing at 7 weeks (I was almost 12 weeks according to the dates). I had no idea that this could happen - does anyone know why it occurred?

The worst part is that I'd already shared the news with my immediate family and some close friends because I was so excited. Now I have to tell them that I miscarried and it breaks my heart. Any advice on how to handle telling everyone would be appreciated, along with your own experiences of miscarriage and what helped you get through it.

Thank you in advance.

You're spot on about the calming effects of nature's sounds and scents; it's a wonderful, sensory experience. I also love hiking and getting deeper into the heart of nature reserves, taking in the lush greenery and vibrant wildflowers. It's exciting to stumble upon wildlife, like spotting rare birds or wild goats! It's a thrilling reminder of the beauty within our ecosystems and a great mental break from the urban hustle.

There's definitely much beauty and wonder in the wilderness that helps us appreciate the simplicity of life and gives perspective on our problems.

being in nature has a way of putting things into perspective; it reminds us of the raw, elemental essence of life and our place within the web of ecosystems. It's humbling and soothing to witness the resilience of wildflowers pushing through cracks in the earth or the unbothered flight of a bird soaring free - a reminder of adaptability and endurance.

It is very grounding. There's so much we can learn from Mother Nature. Using our senses while hiking connects us to the here and now, appreciating the simple things like the breeze on our skin or the feel of the earth beneath our feet. It's a form of mindful awareness that's calming and empowering at the same time.

It's amazing how being in nature, observing the intricacies of life around us, brings a newfound perspective and calm. The natural world has so much to teach us! Does anyone else have nature-related coping strategies they'd like to share?

There sure is a lot we can learn from going back to the basics and appreciating nature and our place in the ecosystem. Being mindful and observing the beauty around us can bring a sense of calm and awareness that's difficult to find within urban concrete deserts.

I also like taking photos of nature. Capturing close-ups of interesting plants and insects allows me to appreciate the intricate details I may otherwise miss. Looking through the lens and capturing the beauty around helps me appreciate the season changes, too. It's amazing how each season showcases unique sights and colours that we might overlook without such a focused appreciation!
