As I write this article about miscarriage quotes, I find myself shedding a tear. Reflecting on my journey through miscarriage and infertility brings back a flood of emotions.
I spent seven long years in a cycle of hope and helplessness, waiting for a miracle that never came. I remember our last attempt, five years ago, when our IVF treatment failed.
I don’t recall the details of my grief, but I do remember hugging my husband, laughing and crying simultaneously, feeling a profound sense of both loss and acceptance. At that time, I was coming to terms with the possibility of never becoming a mom.
We had exhausted all medically possible options, and our hearts and resources were drained. I remember surrendering it all to God, finding a bit of comfort in my faith when hope seemed out of reach.
As you read through these miscarriage quotes, I hope you find some measure of comfort and solace.

Final Thoughts and Our Personal Story
Only a few people knew about our miscarriage, and honestly, I don’t remember their words of comfort. Perhaps they, too, struggled to find the right words, just as I find myself now.
I don’t have all the answers on how to comfort you, but I offered a prayer while writing this. May God speak to you through these words.
I’m hesitant to share this, but I hope it brings you a glimmer of hope.
After countless IUIs and a failed IVF attempt, I discovered I was pregnant just six months later. I believe that my prayers and participating in the feast of Sta. Clara in Obando, Philippines, played a part in this blessing.
I don’t know if you share my faith, but I hope my story offers you some hope and comfort as you navigate through your own journey.
