Baby loss support thread.

[Sarah556]

Is there a current support thread for loss/ MC/ Stillbirth?

If there is then I'd love to join, however, I haven't been able to find one unfortunately.

I had my third MC on Christmas Day. I'm feeling very alone and most of my friends (understandably) just don't know what to say.

There are so many emotions going through my mind - utter devastation/ reluctant acceptance/ when can I try again? What if I will never be a mum? Etc.

It's so lonely :( But, I know I'm not alone, there are so many of us out there.

Come on over, we’re a shit gang to be in, but hopefully you’ll find some company at least

I had a miscarriage in November at 10 weeks im still totally gutted hope your ok feel free to message me if u want to chat x

Thank you Sun!

Jennifer I'm sorry too :( feel free to message me also.

I had my second miscarriage on Christmas Day 2018 I've had another 3 since then. I found once the Pregnancies had ended and the miscarriages complete no one was bothered any more and so talking about it was hard and most people think it's pointless grieving over something that was either basically just a bunch of cells or a barely formed baby. I found my 4th loss by far the hardest as 2 more people who I know were pregnant at the same time and both went on to have healthy Babies.

How far along were yous 8 weeks later im still hurting and cry it's worst thing to go through x

@HopingForMyRainbowBaby I know what you mean, I’m currently on my 4th since Nov 20, and I honestly feel like everyone’s just thinking I should give up, especially at work.
Have you done anything yet to commemorate your babies? They may only have been with you for a short time but that doesn’t mean they were any less loved.

@Sunbird24 My 4th Pregnancy was the one I got furthest along with and the only one I had scans for. Unfortunately Baby's heart never started beating. Because we knew I was going to miscarry that time round we were able to keep our Baby's remains. We'd planned to do the nursery in a Peter Rabbit theme and have a little Peter rabbit teddy in which our Little Bean's remain are sewn inside. I baked a 1st birthday cake last year and plan to do the same this year too. Once I can afford it I'm hoping to get one tattoo that commemorates all 5 of our Babies. The one I'm wanting is a branch with mummy and Daddy birds sitting on it and 5 baby birds flying off into the distance. It has the words 'Even in heaven our Babies you'll be' around it. Then also a tiny tattoo in the shape of a Bean. And although mine were all losses before 12 weeks I've also done 2 charity walks for SANDS in memory of my Babies

Ah, that sounds beautiful. Well done on the charity walks, I think I’d like to do something like that at some point too.

I’m so sorry to hear that. I had a miscarriage a few years ago and it was such a massive shock to the system. A dear friend has several before her ds. She did some investigation with the recurrent miscarriage clinic in london, dr regan I think. In the end eliminating carbs and a good set of vitamins seemed to do the trick after steroids and all sorts.

I’m really sorry for your loss x

I found a zoom miscarriage support group in my area. I'm a bit scared to attend but maybe useful for others?
