Losing a child
1

Hi everyone,

I’m feeling very sad today :pensive_face: :pleading_face::sob:, my baby died during pregnancy some years ago, if he’d of lived, he would of been due to have his 18th birthday this month, :pensive_face::sob: I am heartbroken.

Rubbing salt in the wound, a family member on my partner’s side has just announced they’re pregnant, :face_with_raised_eyebrow:, they really could not of chosen a worse time to share this news, don’t get me wrong, I understand their excitement for their new baby, & wish them every happiness, I just wish they could understand that some of us are grieving, & that when it comes to loosing my beautiful little angel, I will never not be grieving, but so close to what should of been his 18th birthday, :sob:….. :broken_heart:!
