Oh you poor sweet love, there is nothing to do right now. Talk to us, tell us about Oakley so many of us have been here and it's different for each of us but we are here and you are not alone. Type until you fall asleep and know we will be here when you wake for as long as you need us Flowers

Sweetheart you are in terrible terrible shock, and little wonder. I am so so sorry for your loss. Could you phone Samaritans? They are 24 hours.... or call a friend/family member to sit with you. Please don't be on your own xx

Mummyof6tiredmuch · 23/01/2017 22:54

My dh has been screaming and crying for the last few hours since children have been in bed saying he needs to be with Oakley and that he needs he's daddy with him and I'm so afraid that he's saying that .

Oh sweetie I am sorry to hear about your baby Flowers

My first baby Emily was stillborn at 35 weeks a few years ago now and I remember that feeling like you don't want to live anymore it is utterly heartbreaking! Even now I still sleep with a teddy that has the jumper top my dd wore for a while next to my bed.
I wrote a letter and put in with dd so it stayed with her forever and a 2 half necklace half was put in with dd & I still wear half now.

In the future when you are ready/if you want too, SANDS are amazing they were so kind to me and dh and really are worth contacting for support.

Take care of your self Flowers

Sending my love. My baby boy died when he was 3 weeks old, at the time i wanted to die too..... things will get better eventually I promise, but it's shit and so difficult to understand.....

So so sorry to hear this.

Take one of his little outfits and hold it close tonight. Be with your husband and let the tears flow.

You'll get through this, moment by moment.

If you wanted to a drink could help? Something soothing like a hot toddie?

Mummyof6tiredmuch · 23/01/2017 23:00

I'm so sorry for everyone and thank you for sharing with me , I know it's heartbreaking but thank you xx

So terribly sorry for your lossFlowers

I hope you find sufficient peace to get some rest tonight. I am so sorry for your loss. If you feel a need to talk with someone, but all recognised help lines are closed, you can call The Samaritans. They won't advise you but will listen to you.

I am so so sorry for the tragic loss of your Oakley, op. Your dh's reaction is normal, but terrifying for you.

Do you have anyone who could come and sit with you?

Marcipex · 23/01/2017 23:02

Samaritans 116 123
They will talk to you and help you through tonight, until you can access specialised support.

Pandamanda3 · 23/01/2017 23:02

Op im so so sorry for your loss 💐 I cannot imagine your pain, but wanted to say how sorry I am to hear about your awful loss.
Try to take some time for yourself to grieve and collect your emotions, look after yourself and keep your strength up and you and your family will support each other through your grief.

You are all in my prayers, God bless you all💐
