On April 1st 26, we attended a private clinic filled with excitement, expecting to see our baby at 9 weeks and 4 days pregnant. Instead, we were told that our baby’s heartbeat had stopped at 7 weeks and 3 days - a miscarriage with no symptoms. We were placed alone in a small side room. There was no trained professional to support us, no one to guide us through what had just happened, and no one who could answer the many questions we were left with.
