Sympathy and condolences for Lauren Goodger (TW neonatal bereavement)

Lauren Goodger’s baby daughter Lorena has tragically died at just two days old.

I don’t really do social media that much but I think I read somewhere that she is a Mumsnetter…

I just wanted to express most heartfelt sympathy and condolences to her and anyone else experiencing such a heartbreaking loss Flowers

Heartbroken for Lauren. May she be surrounded by people that genuinely care for her. Same goes for Charlie. I can't even imagine the pain they are in. May little Lorena RIP.

I’m really hoping that OP was wrong and Lauren isn’t a mumsnetter because this thread isn’t the best if she does stumble across it one day.

I really think it should be deleted, maybe try again, mumsnetters can do better under such dreadful circumstances.

❤️

Bless her and her family. She's been through alot this last year x

If she’s on here- my heart absolutely goes out to her, and I wish her peace, strength and lovely people around her in the days going forward. It’s nothing more than supporting another mother where possible, we all need that.

speculation nits

I’m not sure it is, by the sounds of her post, they had never left the hospital until last night. Poor Lauren and her partner, the pain must be unimaginable.

WimbyAce · 10/07/2022 21:44

Absolutely tragic. Just can't comprehend how she is feeling and how you can deal with this. So sad. Thoughts with her, Charles and their little girl xx

Poor Lauren and her partner. I really hope they get as much support they possibly can. Rest in peace baby Lorena ❤️

Lauren shared that her baby has died, maybe to prevent people passing on congratulation on the birth. Not because anyone else has a right to know the details of how this happened. The shock and pain must be unreal and she needs to focus on herself and her family right now. She doesn’t owe strangers an explanation.

Tattle has a fair amount of comments that start with “I never liked Lauren/can’t stand Lauren, but…” before offering condolences on the death of her baby. Which imo is so fucking crass. You can offer condolences without mentioning the disdain you have for the people involved. Or don’t bother frankly.

God love her and her little family ❤️
what a horrendous thing to happen to them 🥲

urrrgh46 · 10/07/2022 22:08

Absolutely heartbreaking - so, so sorry for her. 😔

MushyPeasPrincess · 10/07/2022 22:12

@mum2bee2022 you sound very shocked at the idea babies pass away. Maybe look up some statistics around neo-natal deaths and educate yourself. There's lots of reasons why this can happen.

MushyPeasPrincess · 10/07/2022 22:16

And to Lauren, so desperately sorry for your loss. I hope you and your family get all the support and love you need to keep going as bereaved parents. Nothing can help except time.

BoJoGoGo · 10/07/2022 22:17

It’s heartbreaking.

heartbroken22 · 10/07/2022 22:23

@MushyPeasPrincess but she's right. @mum2bee2022 I get you. I recently had a termination for a medical reason (myself) and I was worried my baby would have died when born. It's scary. I honestly wish Lauren well. She's so brave for someone whose gone through so much over the last year.

Newpuppymummy · 10/07/2022 22:29

So sad. Rip little one x

mum2bee2022 · 10/07/2022 17:32

What happened? How does a healthy baby just pass away 2 days after birth?

There are many reasons.

It sounds like this happened very shortly after the birth or possibly still birth.

But that's their business and they are under no obligation to share.

You are not helping by spreading such vile messages around.
She could be on this forum right now reaching out for support from parents who have been in her shoes.

heartbroken22 · 10/07/2022 22:46

@Vivi0 it's okay you're only human. Glad you're getting it removed.

@headiiinthecloudsssss you've done great by quoting it verse for verse.

Noglassjustthebottleandastraw · 10/07/2022 22:47

Extremely sad to read this tragic news. I've always liked Lauren since she first arrived on Towie 💐💖

Vivi0 · 10/07/2022 22:48

Please don’t quote my post.

I’ve reported it to be removed.

I’ve been really upset at the comments all day. It’s late and I didn’t think my post through.

heartbroken22 · 10/07/2022 22:50

@Vivi0 it's alright it happens. I never know people could be so heartless. But yeah they can. How awful.
