Taylor Hill, 28, experienced a miscarriage after she became unexpectedly pregnant while on birth control.
"About three years ago, I had a miscarriage. It was a really strange circumstance under which I had my miscarriage. I had an IUD. I had it for about three years-so I wasn't actively trying to get pregnant. I wasn't in the headspace at all to be pregnant."

She didn't want to be pregnant initially, she decided to carry on with the gestation after learning it was not an ectopic pregnancy. "My pregnancy was in my uterus, it was viable and technically healthy. The circumstances and environment on which I conceived was a bit of a turbulent environment. My doctor said, ‘We don't really know what's going to happen here because you conceived in an environment where your body is telling you you shouldn't be pregnant because of the IUD and also if we remove it we're changing the environment. We don't know, 50/50 on whether you're going to carry this out.'"

Then, about nine weeks into her pregnancy, she started to spot, and a week later a miscarriage began to take place. "It starts happening and I'm alone in my house. I call my husband and I'm just devastated because I know this is about to happen to me. We're both crying. And I could just tell he was so heartbroken that he couldn't be there. I think that was really painful for him, too."
