Feelings after having an early miscarriage- read on.?

A couple of months ago I found out I was pregnant with our second child. I was between 6-8 weeks when I started spotting and with in days ended up miscarrying. The doctor ruled it a blighted ovum and said there is low risk of this happening again. I am emotionally devastated and so confused. I feel in a way that it was all pretend and that I'm making it all up. It's just so surreal. I was not very far along, but in my mind, that was still my child that I was carrying. My family and husband are supportive but don't feel it was that big of a loss because I was not far along. Yes, I understand that there was no fetus developing and I was not 6 months along- but still, I feel the same as if I lost the pregnancy at 8 months. Has anyone experience this? Am I overreacting? Do you ever really recover emotionally from a miscarriage?
