Hello!
I am new to the world of forums and the world of adoption!
A little bit of background, my husband and I have been TTC for almost 3 years now. In total I have had 5 losses, 1 of which was an ectopic which meant I lost my right tube. The last loss was the most devastating, it was the furthest I had ever gotten. We saw such a strong heartbeat and our little one was really starting to look like a baby, then it's heart just stopped beating.
I am finally having investigations done to see why I can't carry, although at this stage this is more for peace of mind more than anything. I have absolutely no plans to fall pregnant again, it just hurts too much and I'm really not sure I can recover from another loss, it just hurts too much.
While TTC I have been researching a lot about therapeutic parenting. I also work with children with challenging behaviour who live in a residential home, so I have a lot of knowledge regarding attachment disorders, ASD, ADHD etc. I was just wondering if anybody has any good resources regarding grieving the loss of having your own biological child? I feel like I have a good starting knowledge of things I will need to research while going through the adoption process, but I just want to make sure I have fully processed not being pregnant and grieved the babies I have lost.
Sorry for the long rambling post, thank you for any help or advice!
