My sister had one yesterday. She was at my house, and started bleeding heavily - she was only two months into the pregnancy. I took her to the ER, where she started having contractions in the waiting room. They ended up aborting what was left of the fetus via a simple surgery.
I held together pretty well through most of it - until my sister asked me what she was going to tell her daughter (she's 3, and hearing that she was going to be a sister made her so excited). I fell apart after that - we had some deep discussions before she went home.
The worst part about it was, that my family wasn't very exicted to hear about the pregnancy when my sister told them. I can't say I was either - seeing as my sister is 20, and is barely scraping by with her first child, I dot' know how she would have been able to handle another one. I know it's not THE cause of her miscarriage, but I feel guilty in this situation as our disapproval didn't help the situation.
