I lost my baby a few weeks ago at 21 weeks as decided to terminate given the zero prognosis of baby living even if did get to term.
One of the things I"m open to in coping with all this is going to a bereavement counsellor. I've been given a number of places where I can find one -including someone who was recommmended by a friend I trust.
She has just phoned me (caught me at very low moment as just had a bit of a fraught conversation with my DSS) and basically instead of having a conversation about who she was and what she does found myself being agreeing to go to see her on friday (I'm not sure I want to see her in particular and I'm not sure if I want to see anyone quite yet).
I"m not completely naive as have been to various counsellors before and know that you need to understand a little abotu them/their methods so you can feel comfortable.
Is it the grief talking or AIBU to feel that I've been bounced into an appointment (this woman is private - I don't mind paying but I just feel very uncomfortable about all this). Is this usual and am I being silly to canecl this apponimtnent until I either find a bit more out abotu her or feel bit more like talking?
