Your body might still think you’re pregnant.

Weeks after I was told the fetus was not alive, I watched my stomach continue to grow. It was the oddest thing, and it also gave me a false sense of hope that maybe my doctor and the ultrasound results had been wrong. But it was just my body’s delayed response in realizing the little person it was supposed to be making changes for, was no longer viable. It would quickly realize this though, and my stomach went down, my hormones decreased, and any of the symptoms I had that let me know I was pregnant (sore breasts, queasiness, aversions to certain foods) went away soon after.
