First Mother’s Day without my mum

Just remembering my own mum who I lost last year. First Mother’s Day without her.

I have lovely teens who will no doubt do some nice things for me later (when they eventually get up!). But I’m really thinking of my own mum today. I miss her a lot. I’ve just been to look at a favourite photo of us together at my wedding.

So here’s to all the mums we missFlowers

So sorry for your loss and to anyone else who’s missing their mum today 🌺 🌷

First for me too. My mum also died in January so still very new and strange.

Same here but different circumstances. Mixed feelings, only one month.

But I do feel for people who had a close relationship 🏵🏵🏵

I am so sorry OP. I was thinking today of all the people that will find today difficult, mums that have lost children, people who have lost their mums, women wanting to be mums, it’s tough day. I am missing my wonderful late MIL today, she died a few years ago, grief doesn’t get easier, you just learn to live alongside it.

24 years in May without my mum. So much has happened that I’d love to tell her about. We had a lovely wedding of one of her grandchildren on Friday. I think she’d be proud of us all x

First without my Mum, but she had dementia for years and didn't know who I was for 5 years or so.
I'm also 16 weeks with my first which has really set me off - I just want my Mam 😔

Similar here. This is the first one without my mum but actually I'm totally okay with it, after the dementia her death was quite honestly a blessed relief. I am happy that she's finally free from it. I've found previous Mother's Days when she was alive a lot harder and it was rotten.

Hugs to all those that need them today.

Come back to lots of comments. Sending anyone a hug who needs it.

Same here op. My mum died 2 months ago. We buried her ashes on Monday and it was her 82nd birthday on Tuesday. Her house is gone too.
