Thank you for your kind words, I hope you are feeling a bit better today. Yes, we did the egg trails this morning and they loved it. We are in your thoughts and that’s comforting, thank you.
Did you do anything today? X

Hello,I’m so sorry to see the pain and gut wrenching feelings of hopelessness that I to no. My daughter was 12 when she died in a road accident. I was cooking her tea and all the time she was underneath a bus up the road,crushed to death. On Thursday it was her 21st birthday and somehow I’m still here,because I had an 8 month old son and he deserved a mum to. It never goes the pain,but one day at a time,somehow it will be years gone by,because your other kids will save you,I promise. May your little girl rest in peace,my little girl will look after her.xxxxxx

Such nice words I hope all.our children are together

I can’t imagine how you’ve managed all these years, or indeed how does/ did anyone on here? I feel your pain, I’m so very sorry and I thank you for getting in touch.
My kids keep me alive, they deserve their mom regardless. I’m blowing a kiss to all our kids out there, look after each other :heart:

It’s difficult for all who have lost a child whether as a baby or when they’re older. I myself had a stillbirth baby girl she was our first baby last August. I know men find it difficult to grieve. My husband doesn’t share what he is feeling for the first week we might have bereaved together afterwards it was just me and an empty feeling. Although I did have support from my family they don’t understand how difficult it still is at times. I have sudden periods of grief that overwhelm me. Simple things can be triggers you see everything differently. Even my own sister and my youngest niece when she was doing simple things like feeding her or even giving her a hug it just made me realise all the things I couldn’t do with my own daughter. The only time she was felt was in my womb she would kick she had a heartbeat all through pregnancy. I was told their was a chance I would lose her as in my second scan they told me that it seems both her kidneys don’t work from there it was a struggle to the end I had hope until my baby was lifeless when she was born. It felt as though it was also surreal. Then worst of all was the burial with just my close family . It felt as though a little bit of myself was buried with her. Even nearly a year on I find it difficult to go to visit her grave but when I don’t go for a month or so I feel guilty. In these difficult times I hope we can all stick together and remember those we lost. Men just have different ways to bereave and cope. My husband stopped smoking for nearly 3 years, but when we lost our baby he started again and hasn’t still given up. I know he is in pain but he just won’t share his feelings. I know he is trying to be strong for me. I’m sure your partner is also being the stronger one not letting his feelings affect the family

I am so desperately sorry that you have had to go through this and losing your precious baby. I lost my precious daughter 2 years ago. I don’t know if hearing of my experience will help but in some ways it does get easier. I have never and will never ‘get over it’ but I do experience peaceful days now. That is the only way I can describe it. In the early days everything was so raw I would literally scream with grief and spend days crying. I lost my concentration and even had physical pain in my back and neck.
Gradually I am learning to live with the pain and the grief and am somehow able to block it out. I am so glad you have found this site as it has been a lifeline for me. Everyone is so caring and understanding.
Sending you much love and a big hug xxx
