Grief during pregnancy

Hey ladies,
I lost my mum last year and it was very sudden so it was very difficult. I was slowly coping better and starting to enjoy a bit of life more and crying less.
I'm now pregnant and I feel like I'm regressing and the grief is just swallowing me whole. The painful memories pop up almost all the time now and I just can't stop crying.
I'm guessing maybe it's the hormones or maybe the thought of being a mum after just having lost mine.
I'd really appreciate hearing your experiences and. Opting mechanisms.

Thanks x

I've not experienced this but I can see why your grief is flooding back.

Hopefully this will bump for you Thanks
