PPROM loss - devastated

We lost our beautiful baby at 22+6 after a very difficult pregnancy with a large haematoma, bleeding for most of it and PPROM at approx 20 weeks.
I developed a serious infection despite antibiotics and my daughter was born sleeping, tiny but perfect.

Heartbroken doesn't even come close to how I am feeling...just wanted to post to find some hope for the future from anyone who has been through something similar.

I am so so sorry, @midgetjen.
It's a shit of a thing. We lost our beautiful girl 9 months ago at 27 weeks. It wasn't prrom, she was just gone due to problems with placenta.
Please please take it easy on yourselves. Remember whatever feels right to you guys is the right thing. If you want to do memory making stuff, do it. If the thought of that is too much that's fine too.
There is support out there, the SANDS forum is very good. There is a #babylosshour on Twitter every Tuesday at 8pm which covers different topics every week. Also Instagram babyloss community is very active.
I am not going to tell you it gets easier, it just gets different - if that makes sense. Please DM me if you have any questions or you just want to chat.
I know you will feel so alone, but please don't. What was your little girls name?
Real life friends may struggle as some people don't deal well with grief, we have found that if we engage with people they are genuinely glad to be able to help in any way, it does seem to have to come from us for some though.
Xx

I am so sorry for your loss I lost my daughter to pprom. My daughter was born at 20+2, it's been 3 months today. They have been the hardest months of my life.

I'm here if you need/want to talk.

If you are on Facebook look up little heartbeats, they raise awareness of pprom and also have Facebook support groups.
