I know it's not an AIBU but I wanted to post here as this is the place I venture when life gets really hard.
In light of baby loss awareness week coming to a close and my own loss in April of this year, this site and the people here have been nothing short of fantastic.
I've seen the vitriol aimed at Mumsnetters due to recent events, that I don't need to mention as I know there are a fair few threads on the subject active at this moment.
It has been upsetting for me to see the slurs aimed at those who use this site - a space that has made me laugh with some excellent humour, has made me cry when others have reached out with stories of their loss, has made me feel accepted and valued on subjects that I don't get to discuss in real life and I think it's been my lifeline when everything else was spiralling.
You've kept me going and so I just wanted to say thank you, from me and from my little forever sleeping baby Christopher.
