Mother's day

I'm struggling today. I know I won't be alone in that, and I'm thinking of the other ladies on here feeling the same Flowers

Going to see my DM shortly and I need to get my shit together because it's her day, and she does deserve to be celebrated.
But I was meant to be a mother too, and I'm not. I feel so selfish for making it about me, but it's hard today.
I just needed to say something. Take care everyone

I'm sorry you are struggling OP. You are a mother too, even if your baby is not with you Thanks

Feeling completely the same today. Keep going over my head all the what ifs and making myself feel even worse. Hopefully one day we will be celebrating it with our children. We mustn’t give up hope even tho it’s bloody hard.

I’m so sorry you’re struggling today, your feelings are totally valid. Be kind to yourself.

I'm so sorry op you are clearly a lovely person trying to sort your emotions out to ensure your mum has a good day.

Sending an unmumsnetty hug and a big love. A big love in my area is what we call a big tight hug that is really meant.

Solidarity 💐 today has been nice for spending time with my mum but no one has asked how I'm feeling as I should have been 7 months pregnant by now. I feel a mix of fine and shite. Lots of what ifs floating in my head.

I am so sorry @lemonbell, that is dreadful news at any time but particularly painful today xx

Yea I've had some tears today.

Hugs to all x

Thank you everyone. Your responses all mean the world

@Lemonbell I'm so sorry you're going through it today of all days. It's always painful but today must be horrendous. Thinking of you.

Love to all x

Sending love to everyone. My name was due on mother's day. It's been a very hard day for me mentally. Flowers
