Hi Mrtumble6,
I’m so sorry to hear that you’ve lost your baby girl. I am sure you’re an incredible mother, and I cannot even imagine how hard it must be for you right now.
I’m glad that you’ve found this Online Community, and I hope it helps even a tiny bit to be able to share your feelings here. You aren’t alone in how you are feeling, and you may find it helpful to have a read of some other conversations from users who have also lost their babies, for example:

There’s an excellent charity called Sands that offers free support to everyone who has been affected by the death of a baby. You can call their helpline on 0808 164 3332 or email them on helpline@sands.org.uk. Their website is https://www.sands.org.uk/.
If there’s anything I can help with, or you have any questions about this Online Community, you can get in touch with me on online.community@sueryder.org or send me a private message.
Best wishes,
Irene
