Subject: The tears have arrived
Date Posted: 04 May 2010 at 9:18am
The tears have finally arrived this morning so am just letting it all out now.

Well those of you know me know yesterday I had my 12 week scan and had it confirmed, after a very tough start to my first pregnancy, my gorgeous little baby had died.

If this was a letter it would be very tear stained.

Yesterday I think I must have been holding it in to be strong for DH. He's had to go to work today so am getting it all out of the way now. We did talk last night and both admitted we knew something was wrong but neither wanted to say that to each other as we didn't want to scare each other. He felt it after we left hospital which was at 6 1/2 weeks when I had been admitted for hyperemesis. I first felt it just before that but knew it when my first scan in hospital showed me to be a week behind what I should. Then it was the size of 51/2 weeks when it should have been 61/2. From then on I just hoped I was wrong, hoped that the wee thing would catch up, and put it to the back of my mind.

The last few weeks I guess it started coming back up as the scan got closer and I knew I would have to face it. It gave up the battle when it was the size of 7 weeks, but I know that it was 4 weeks ago, when I was almost 8 weeks along as it was always a week behind schedule. It was just a little slow to get going from the beginning and then eventually gave up the battle of trying to fight for life.

I'm scared to have the D&C. I don't want it. I'm scared that I will feel the loss too much once they take it out.

Life can be cruel sometimes but not much I can do about that. Everything else my body did was right. There was no bleeding, no cramps. There was no reason for anyone to think there was a problem. It just wasn't the right time for me.

I know I will be okay, and I know we will be pregnant again soon. We will start our family one day soon. It's just so sad that it won't be a beautiful November born baby this year as we wanted it so badly.

Oh bobsta

I don't have any words of wisdom or magic that can make it all better, I'm still trying to figure it all out myself. I am glad that you haven't given up your family deam and give you loads of hugs and sticky vibes for when you feel able to try again. You deserve more.

I was also given no warning until the morning of the 13 wk scan where I had a light bleed, everything had been perfect until then. Such a shock.

Good luck with your D&C, I felt a real wrenching loss to be not pregnant so quickly BUT I am very very glad I opted for the D&C rather than m/c naturally, I think the stress would have been a lot worse. At least it was over quickly.

I am crying for you again I don't want anyone to got hrough this pain

Bobsta - I am so sorry you are going through this, life is just so unfair sometimes... I've only 'known' you for a short while on the Nov thread and know you are such a kind, caring, couragous person. You will get through this and you and DH will get the beautiful family you deserve.

Take care

Thanks Oxy for coming in to say hi. I really wanted to text you but just couldn't quite manage it.

Merlinfluff I am glad I have time to myself to try to comes to term with it before the D&C. I am just scared at what I might feel afterwards.

DH just rang me and he is coming home. I think for him as much as for me. I think today we might both let it out together as last night we were both being strong for each other. I am sad as he so wants to be a dad. I am lucky we can both see this time just wasn't meant to be and both agree we will try again as soon as we can. He is my strength and I am the luckiest person in the world to have him to myself for the rest of my life. Together we will get through it, it may be raining now but the sun always comes out again at some point.

Aww hun it sucks doesn't it?

I know this sounds insane but I felt better after my D&C. I was like you terrified didn't want to do it and was so scared to have a general and was adament I wanted a local right up to the point where I was about to have the procdure. But you know what, the general anesthetic was mentally exactly what I needed... it just took the pain away for awhile and I'm sure that's the point where I started healing.

One thing I wish I had asked for is the remains to plant somewhere.

If you are off to the Auckland surgical centre for your D&C the ladies there are really, really nice.

I hate sounding like a cliche but things will get better...

The tears keep coming, I can't stop, I hope this helps.


To my angel baby,
You will never know how much I loved you,
I wish I could have known you for longer and watch you grow up,
You will always be with me and your dad,
I know your heart will beat up in heaven,
May your soul fly free wherever it is,
We will love you forever.

So sorry again Bobsta. Just wanted to say that I too think I felt better after the D&C.

My first mc was natural and I found all the bleeding so hard and it just wouldn't stop. The second one was a missed mc at 12 weeks and I decided to do the D&C asap as I just wanted to start over again.

They are really lovely at Wellington as well and it only took a few hours and I was home by lunchtime. It wasn't painful at all. The only thing was that I had retained product when I went for a follow up scan 2 weeks later and had misoprostal for that and I had to have BT each week for about 6 weeks to get the HCG down to 0.

Let it all out today and it will be nice for you to have DH at home with you.

Will be thinking of you tomorrow

Sorry for your loss huh MC is such an awful thing to go through. Cry as much as you need and give yourself time

I know the D&C isnt what you want but, just wanted to say that for me, after 10 days of bleeding and knowing my body wasnt passing it I wanted it out and gone so choose to have the D&C done. I really wanted my body to try naturally but it just wasnt happening. Once the D&C was done the pain of MCing eased and I was able to move on and finish grieving if that makes sense.

Hang in there hun. I hope you have lots of support

Bobsta Im soooooooo sorry to hear about your wee one. Since reading your news last night Bobsta I haven't stopped thinking of you!     Hearing your pain just brings back all those memories for me again and I know exactly how your feeling as do too many of us ladies in here! Take the next few days with DH to talk, cry let it all out. It’s so fantastic you have such a wonderful supportive DH, he will be your rock in the coming weeks so let him look after you.

I didn't really have a choice with my mc, I had a natural mc the day after my 12 week scan. Looking back now I kinda wish I'd had a D&C just because it did take a while for my body to get back to some sort of normality and to help me grieve and move on, as it did end up taking months.

Sorry Im not very good with words, but hun take care of yourself and let yourself grieve for your little one.   We are all here for you…

Will be thinking of you lots over the next few days, take care….

Bobsta, I posted this in charting, but I'll post it here too if thats ok, it a poem i found helped with the grieving when I went through mine a while back...

God didnt choose to finish you
we will never watch you grow
we had such hopes and dreams for you
but now we will never know

We didnt even think of this
it wasnt in our minds
we only thought the best would come
we left all doubts behind

But God in all his wisdom said
"This wasnt meant to be
just trust in me and one day you will know
what now is hard to see"

Little baby we loved you
though no one understands
We know he'll finish you in heaven
Well place you in his hands





All the best for your appointment, and I hope they get it all done as quick as possible so you can grieve and move forward with whatever you want to do... Dont know if this is something you would do or not, but I hear a lot of people let a balloon off in memory of their lost ones... and dont be afraid to cry, its natures best way of allowing you to release all that grief, not just for your baby, but all the hopes and dreams that come with new life... we are all here whenever you want to talk about it

Hi Bobsta,

I am a good friend of Susyl's and wanted to express my deepest sadness for your news.

I went through what you have on 12th Feb this year (found out at 12 wk scan) and all I can say is please hang onto the knowlesge that you will, as each day passes, feel better and you will slowly start to heal. I feel teary thinking about what you're going through and thinking about how I'm nearly 3 months on. The pain is still there and I still grieve every now and then but I am so much stronger and positive and I know you will be too. I was a blubbering mess for the first couple of days and wondered how I'd ever get through this devastaing part of my life, but I did...and you will too.

You have a great attitude and I know too, when the time is right, you'll have a beautiful little baby.

Do not fear the D&C - I was so scared and cried right up until the point they put me to sleep. But the nurses will look after you well and I'm sure you won't take long at all to recover - one piece of advice though is just relax for a couple of weeks afterwards to let your body have the best chance of healing well.

There's not much more to say except you have so much support in these forums...life will get easier, you will smile and laugh again.

Oh!! Now I'm REALLY crying again. That was really really beautiful. Amazing how poems can move you so much

I love this one too, really describes how it feels to love the little one lost too early

Just Those First Few Weeks
By Susan Erling

For those few weeks -
I had you to myself
And that seems too short a time
To be changed so profoundly

In those few weeks -
I came to know you...
and to love you.
You came to trust me with your life.
Oh, what a life I had planned for you!

Just those few weeks -
When I lost you I lost a lifetime of hopes,
plans, dreams and aspirations...
A slice of my future simply vanished overnight.

Just those few weeks -
It wasn't enough time to convince others
how important and special you were.
How odd, a truly unique person has recently died
And no-one is mourning the passing.

Just a few more weeks -
And no 'normal' person would cry all night
over a tiny unfinished baby,
or get depressed and withdraw day after endless day.
No-one would, so why am I?

You were just those first few weeks my little one
you darted in and out of my life too quickly.
But it seems that's all the time you needed
to make my life so much richer
and give me a small glimpse of eternity.

Thanks Smiles. Hearing everyone say the D&C helped makes me feel better about it. I would just rather have it done now than have to wait. Can I ask how many days it took your body to recover from the D&C? I don't know what to expect. Naturally I will not be at work for the rest of the week but is it unrealistic to expect myself to be okay physically to go back on Monday next week if I have it done on Thursday?

Merlinfluff that is a really nice poem. I'm glad you are finding things to help your pain.

My baby died at 11.5 weeks and to be honest I fel totally fine straight away after D&C - I felt I could've been back at work that day...but of course I wouldn't. General didn't make me feelsick..although I did sleep for 3 hours that afternoon so you do feel exhausted. But yes, I'd say you would definitely be "physically" ready for work on Monday if you have it done Thursday - but don't put pressure on yourself...just see how you feel.

I made the big mistake (it was really really dumb of me I know) of going to the gym 3 days post D&C ...I wanted to feel "normal" again and I am the most impatient person I know. Anyway BIG mistake and that's when the pain etc started....I was fine up until that point. So yes, please don't do what I did - just let your body rest...you deserve it after the ordeal you've been through. All up, it took my body about a week and a half to get back to normal .

I had the D&C 5 days ago, came through the general really easy, was physically back on my feet later that day (had op at 8am). I'd say you'd be fine going back to work the monday after, just take it very easy on yourself.

Only reason it seems I am feeling as terrible now as I am is picking up blardy norovirus from an outbreak at the hospital . Sheesh.

Oh my lovely Bobby... I dont think I have cried so much for someone in a long time!

As others have said, I found the D&C actually helped me, once the baby was out I could move on and think about starting again.

I too cried the entire time, I was crying until I went to sleep and I was crying when I woke up and tbh I still cry now....

The physical recovery is quite quick really, just like a really bad AF but you do have to look after yourself.

I had mine done a Monday & my intial dr's certificate from the hospital was for 2 days (including the monday) so obviously you are physically capable quickly but I took a week off (well from the previous thursday when we found out and the whole next week) as I couldnt stand the thought of my colleagues pity gazing at me.

I dont remember how long the cramps lasted but I do remember that the pads I got were scented and if I forget and get the same scented ones I vomit when i smell them.. funny nearly 2 years on and it still has that effect on me.

Hugs and hugs and hugs.

This may be a really silly question but do I get a period right after the D&C?

I was told my period would come between 4 and 6 weeks after my D&C. Most people seem to cycle pretty much as usual taking the D&C as the last day of your previous cycle, from what I've read. Hope that makes sense.

*hugs to you again*

You will bleed, infact when you first stand up after the op you will be warned you may gush.. I did hear what she said and was quite shocked!

I had med to light flow for the first couple of days and then spotting on and off with a couple of days of light flow for 6 days. My first cycle was 40 days but many people just go right back to normal.

HTH, its not so much scary as just very heart wrenching but hopefully you get nurses and surgeon like I had who were so very caring and gentle with me. They even snuck DH into recovery as I was so distraught afterwards.

I will be thinking of you tomorrow, there are other options other than a D&C that they will discuss with you tomorrow.

Last night I was doing so well but then this morning the ms decided to come back. I've still been taking my pills for the nausea but this morning I had more vomiting again and just feel so sick. Isn't life mean sometimes, you'd think it would give me a break after everything. Not long to go now though before it's all gone though. I think I will be relieved as I've had time now to accept it. This morning when I woke up for a moment I didn't remember everything, then I did and it was like "ah, that's right" and I just lay in bed feeling the burden of sadness. Mornings must be my sad time and when I feel it the most. Writing helps though as it gives me a way to release things I feel rather than bottling it up. I don't expect you to reply to this, I'm just writing for me. Maybe I should start a blog instead of writing here, but I do like this place. I could treat this like a blog.
The appt is at 11am today. That's when they'll go through everything, and like Mel said give me all the options. Is there an option to have a healthy living baby? I don't think so. That's a shame. I would like that option. My SIL is coming with me today though. She's great, I'm lucky to have her.
I need to wash my hair but can't be bothered. I'm sure once the morning blues pass I'll be back to my normal self so don't worry too much that I'm getting too sad. It'll pass. oops, I have a few tears now. I don't even know why they're here. I've accepted everything but I just have lots of sadness. It's not a sadness for loss, or death, it's just overall sadness. I don't know, maybe letting all these feelings loose like this isn't good.

My heart goes out to you and I'm sending all the love in the world, I am so so sorry you're going through this

I had a d and c 7 weeks ago, The physical recovery was easy, just like a light AF with some mild cramping.

I went back to work 2 days later for me, which in hindsight was far too soon for my emotional recovery. Take as much time as you need. Some of the best advice I received was just "Be Still". Do what you need to for you, and feel what you need too, let it all out , Don't try to hold it in.

We're all thinking of you, Let out your feelings here as much as you need too, as there's alot of us who understand. It's a sad club to be a part of, but there is alot of us here

Hi Bobsta,
am thinking of you right now.

It's weird because I haven't cried over my missed M/C for a while now, and your post and all the lovely replies has got me started again. I'm not sure if I'm crying for you or for me.

I was in a very similar situation as you...knew something was wrong, but tried to convince myself everything was OK. Then found out at the 3 month scan that my baby had died at about 8 weeks. That day was my day of mourning. I cried all day. I was just so so sad. I miscarried the next day. It was horrendous - waters breaking, severe labour pains, blood, tissue...so bad. I personally didn't want a D&C - I did want my body to M/C naturally. But I can see why a D&C may be preferential, particularly so late in pregnancy. I've had a few friends who have had D&C's and they said the recovery was really good. I'm sure all will go well for you. Just rest and sleep and rest some more.

Let us know how you are when you feel up to it.
Am thinking of you.

Thanks everyone, again I thinking how lucky I am to have the supportive you have given.

The appt was, well interesting. First I met the nurse and she was a bit of a loopy de loop sort of person. Then I met the "junior doctor" who was training someone else from med school. The doctor looked about 12 years old. She may as well have read everything she said straight from the text book. I could she her brain mentally ticking all the boxes of things she has to tell me. She even asked me how having a miscarriage makes me feel. Seriously? Then she asked if I was in a stable relationship after me telling her yes it was a planned pregnancy. Firstly why would I plan to get pregnant if I wasn't, and what business is it of hers?! They did some internal swabs and she couldn't even find my bloody cervix! She used many choice term like "sucking it out", how very sensitive of her, not. When I asked her about have the baby tested to find out the reason why she said they don't bother with first ones as there's no reason to and secondly they would only do that if I was past 20 weeks. Oh, thanks for telling me my first m/c is no big thing and it's even less important because it wasn't far enough along to matter. Good stuff doc, top marks for sensitivity. Of course she said this all in her well practised hushed tone to show she does care. Maybe she should go back to med school and take the "how to show empathy" course again.    

As you can see the anger part of the process has reached me. Well after that great experience me and my SIL went back and waited to see the nurse again. While sitting there I went very quickly from angry Robyn to sarcastic to Robyn and we just had a good laugh about how useless the doctor was. I got to see the loop de loop nurse again but it was good to talk to her and she really did go through things properly, showed genuine empathy for whats happened and answered all my questions about TTC again, my cycle etc. I had a BT done after that and everything is ready now so will have the D&C done tomorrow at 2.30pm.

I feel pretty good and in a way I'm glad I had a stupid 12 year old doctor as it gave me a good reason to feel something other than sadness. I only hope that tomorrow the people doing things are a bit more sensitive. I'm sure they will be.

Oh dear lord, what an idiot!

If you want baby tested you can have baby tested so when you go in tomorrow and you see the nurse for pre-op tell them that you want the testing done. Confirm it with the surgeon when they come to see you.

That is YOUR choice, not theirs!!!!

Will light a candle for you tomorrow hun.

I wonder if the 12 year old came from the same batch of idiots when I had my ectopic. I had a 12 year old med student come in and tell me that it was ok for me to have an ectopic and go home and see how things went. Then she went to check with the "real doctor" who came in and said the exact opposite.

Today the appt was at Greenlane opposite to ASB showgrounds so maybe we did get the same 12 year old! Tomorrow it will be done at Auckland City Surgical in Remuera. I opted to gave a general as there's no way I want to be aware of what they're doing when they're doing it so hopefully I will feel pretty good tomorrow evening.

Same place then!

The surgical centre people are really, really lovely. I think they do a lot of D&Cs (everyone I know in Auckland city seemed to get referred there) so they are well used to dealing with highly emotional women.

Oh and the drugs were fab. I remember saying to DP on the way home 'I totally know how you could hooked on these drugs because I feel so great.' He looked at me sideways because I had been crying for 3 days.

Bobsta, I am sorry you got people who dont understand how we feel after a loss, clearly they have never had the misfortune of knowing first-hand how turbulent the emotions will be!

All the best for tomorrow, and I agree... as the patient you should have the right to have baby tested to find out if anything was wrong with the baby... it could save a lot of time and heartache further down the TTC road depending on the results...

You should be looked after tomorrow a lot better as they will have seen this exact same scenario a thousand times over... and will have had a LOT more practise at how to handle it all tactfully!

I will be thinking of you tomorrow, Im glad your SIL went with you today, is she going with you tomorrow as well?
And agree with what others have said re testing, if its what you want, then you make them do it, it is your baby. That was the one thing I was gutted about my MC was that because I didnt have a DnC I didnt get tests done... I did however plant him under a Kowhai tree which I am pleased about (totally personal choice)

Thanks Emmi, it was nice to wake up to read your post and feel your hug.

Once again feeling very ill this morning, don't know if it's becuase today is D'day or if it's the ms still hanging around. I started feeling quite ill last night too so think it must be nerves. Ended up asleep in bed by 8.30pm but I had a very restful sleep.

Don't quite know how to feel today. In some ways I just want to accidentally forget to go today but in same ways I want it done so it's finally all over. I don't have the incredible sadness I've had the past few days, it's a more gentle sadness now. DH will be coming home at lunchtime and he will be there with me the whole time.

I spoke with my family last night which was really good. I was a bit worried about my sister as she had her 20 week scan yesterday and knew she was a bit anxious. Everything went well so that's good. I feel nothing but complete happiness for her.

It's funny as when I was TTC I would be envious of anyone that was pregnant or had a baby. But I don't feel that at all now. I thought I would a bit having lost my baby and knowing I have to start all over again. But I feel happy knowing I was pregnant and did have a baby and it was all mine and I know that will be me again one day soon.

I send all pregnant ladies out there warm fuzzy vibes and pray that you all have healthy happy pregnancies, each and everyone one of us deserves to be mum and experience that joy.

You have a beautiful attitude to life, Your last post has me in tears. I'm happy you got to experience the beauty and wonder of pregnancy and one day it will be all yours again.

All the best for today, I was at ASC 7 weeks ago and the nurses there are so divine, They will look after you well and the Anathetic was a wonderful way to escape for a few moments. (The Tea and Scone when you wake up is a nice touch too, as everything will feel a little surreal)

Lots of Love

Well I've managed to distract myself this morning by watching a really lovely movie. The reality of what's about to come is sinking in. I know my ill feelings this morning are definitely not ms as the ms pills aren't working. I am feeling more ill as it gets closer. I've always been someone that reacts physically to things that scare me.

I feel like crying now but I need to be strong. I can cry afterwards. I don't know what else to say.......how sad it is that so many of us haven been through this, are going through it, and will go through it. It just breaks my heart thinking about it

Bobsta I found you this poem

When tomorrow starts without me and I'm not here to see...

If the sun should rise and find your eyes filled with tears for me,

I wish so much you wouldn't cry the way you did today...

While thinking of the many things we didn't get to say.

I know how much you love me, as much as I love you...

And each time you think of me, I know you'll miss me, too.

But when tomorrow starts without me, please try to understand

That Jesus came and called my name and took me by the hand,

He said my place was ready in heaven far above...

And that I'd have to leave behind all those I dearly love.

So when tomorrow starts without me, don't think we're far apart...

For every time you think of me, I'm right here in your heart.

Oxy that gave me a tear or two so took me awhile to reply so the waterworks didn't start up. Thanks for posting that   

I'm now feeling very restless as DH will be here to take me soon. I better get dressed. Guess it's not the done thing to turn up in PJ's and a dressing gown. I'm sure I could get away with it though given the circumstances
Is it crazy of me to worry about how frizzy my hair is right now? Probably. I even shaved my legs especially. I must be going a bit crazy to think about things like that. Everything seems a bit ridiculous right now. I keep thinking I should make myself useful and do some washing or sweep up the leaves outside. It's just as well I'm not out around the general public as right now I would probably say something inappropriate to people like "Guess what! They're gonna take out my dead baby today!"

Oh dear, someone shake me please, or reach through their computers and slap me.

You dont have to do ANYTHING useful and not for a few days even hun, this is a time to be taken to grieve and be with your DH and truely BE together, morn together, love together and be sad together, dont let anyone stop you doing that hun

Have you tried some rescue remedy?
Im a physical reaction person too, i get the scoots or throw up when im nervous or scared, its totally natural and you shouldnt worry, though getting a lil fluids in before the op would be good as you do feel dry after any general anesthetic. make sure you sleep if you wanna sleep after too, its when your body does most of the best healing, physically and mentally

I have some rescue remedy somewhere but not sure if it's a good idea to take it before something like this where I get knocked out. I wish I was allowed to drink as I really feel like sitting in the sun and having a cup of tea. That always relaxes me when I'm anxious. I just wish the sick feeling in my stomach would go away.

Thinking of you Bobsta. I'm sure everything will go fine and you will be feeling like a different person tomorrow.

"It's funny as when I was TTC I would be envious of anyone that was pregnant or had a baby. But I don't feel that at all now. I thought I would a bit having lost my baby and knowing I have to start all over again. But I feel happy knowing I was pregnant and did have a baby and it was all mine and I know that will be me again one day soon. "

I just wanted to say something about your quote in one of the previous posts. You may start to feel envious of preggie people again. I certainly do. Particularly those that are due the same month as I was (October). The week after my miscarriage I went and saw a friend who was due a week before me, and seeing her beautiful baby bump really hurt. I got really upset because I was so jealous and I knew I should have one to match. We should've been sharing pregnancy together. So expect those sort of feelings to pop up unexpectedly, and know it's normal to feel that way. Another of my coffee group girls also got pregnant unexpectedly (first born was IVF) and she is also due a week out from when I was. So hearing she was pregnant was a shock (slap in the face) and seeing her beautiful 12 week scan photos was hard too. But time to move foward and think pregnant thoughts for me. It's my husbands lucky month!!!

Let us know how you get on.

Thinking of you.

I think I could feel it as as soon as I woke I said a prayer out loud which I have never done before. I know I was well looked after this afternoon and I had someone watching over me. My wee angel has taught me strength and given me the courage to allow myself to be proud to believe in things I have kept well hidden my whole life and have been scared to to question and learn more about.

Words cannot express how truly blessed I am to be surrounded by such supportive and loving people. I will forever be grateful for the kindness you have all shown me.

Last night I felt good, now not so much. I guess the anesthetic has well and truly worn off. I have woken up to some quite bad pain. Don't have the heart to wake DH but it feels so sore and I want his cuddles. I have taken the pills they gave me and hope they start working soon. Just want to sleep it all away. Why can't I go back to feeling so happy. I guess I shouldn't expect to fine so quickly but I thought I was through the worst. Doesn't help that at this time of night/morning its all dark and quiet so too easy to think about things. I must keep myself busy. I am going to try to write just a few times a day as when I write I let all my emotions flow. It's a good thing and a bad thing at the same time. My mum tells me it's my healing process. I like to write here knowing at least it might be read by people who understand the pain. Oh no, now the tears are here again. I knew they would eventually come. I didn't cry at all yesterday. I was very good when I was there, I was calm and relaxed and didn't get upset. The people were so nice to me. They said it all went well and had no complications, I like to think that will be no scarring that will make it hard to get pregnant again. That is one of the risks of a D&C. Mostly though it makes it easier to get pregnant again.    Why did this baby have to hurt me so much in so many different ways. Why couldn't I keep her. We've been through so much in our lives already, why couldn't this one thing have been easy. I know these things happen to teach us lessons in life, but it's still no fair.

Just reading your words is making me tear up and think of my mc end March.
I would like to say that life does go on but sh#t its hard sometimes and trying to put on a brave face just doesnt work when you are hurting so much inside.

Have you thought about counselling to help you through this? We are contemplating it and I know Princess-Bubs found it quite helpful.

Oh hun, sending you a big warm fuzzy hug!

You are grieving and that is healthy and you NEED to do it. Your a mum and the worst possible thing that can happen to a mum is to loose a child.

Allow yourself to feel what ever it is you are feeling and though you may not see it now, it WILL get easier and there will come a day when you realise you hadnt thought about it at all the day before.

I wish I could come and make you tea and give you a big cuddle and let you cry it all out on my shoulder.

We are all here for you lovely girl, you just let me know when you are ready and I will be there to do whatever it is you want to do.

Big hugs Bobsta. You are being very brave and strong, but please don't feel that you have to be all the time. After my D&C a year ago I was initially fine and then the feelings of grief and finally anger (for quite awhile) kicked in - it helped me that I'd be warned I'd feel like that, and the only way I got through it was to talk talk talk to anyone that would listen, and even now I like to mention my angel baby to DH and friends to make sure he isn't forgotten. Writing a poem and planting it under a tree which is in a pot on our deck was very healing too.

Be very gentle with yourself and don't expect to feel ok for awhile, that way your won't feel disapointed, but please know that one day you will be able to look back and realise that your angel was a precious gift just that was just taken too soon. Take care x

Bobsta, It's really natural to have good days and bad days. Just take them as they come.

After my D&C I put a huge amount of pressure on myself to feel fine and not wallow in my sadness when I wasn't feeling fine at all. Which in retrospect made things a whole lot worse over the long run.

I know this sounds corny but you have to give yourself time to just feel these emotions. I also found having small things (other than getting pregnant again) to look forward to every week a real helper to getting through bad days.

Bobsta i just had a go at writing a couple of poems for you too, i hope you dont mind. sorry if they are crap or make you feel sad again. but i just felt like i needed to write something.

first one:

I cant believe you’re gone,
its like you never left
But I’m sitting here alone,
feeling so bereft

People say they are sorry
but they don’t really know,
For the little time we spent together
how I love you so

It comforts me although you’re gone
I know you’re still around
Near to me, surrounding me
though you don’t make a sound.

There will always be a place for you
deep inside my heart
I will always be your mummy
even though we’re far apart

I just can’t understand
how could you leave me so?
I love you, I miss you
I’ll never let you go

You’re up in heaven now
watching over me,
Goodbye my little baby
Go now, be free.

and the other one:

I’m not quite ready yet mummy
Please let me go away
Once I am perfect
I will come back to stay

I’m sorry I didn’t tell you I was gone
But you already knew
I had to go, He was calling me
And so my spirit flew

I know it hurts you deeply
And I’m very sorry
But I will be back one day soon
So please try not to worry

God hasn’t finished me yet
He’s busy working away,
Making me all ready
So we can meet some day

I’ll come back to you
When the time is right
For now I’ll be here when you sleep
Hugging you all night

I know I’m not with you
Down there on the ground
I might be up in heaven now
But I will always be around

You say that I taught you something
Well you taught me something too
How you love me so very much
And I cant wait to be with you


sending more love hun xxxx

those were beautiful Heaf, I really felt the love in them , pfft they are just as good, if not better than mine , I hope Bobsta feels loved when she reads them

I didn't love you very long
but I loved you from the start
the moment I saw the line
I knew you could break my heart
I could not dwell too much
on what that line would do
my life would be forever changed
that much I thought I knew
Life went on as life always does
and though deep down I had my fears
I prayed to God that things be ok
and in 9 months you would be here
When they told me you were gone
I felt like perhaps Id always known
but it didn't stop me wishing
for what the screen hadn't shown
And it didn't stop my heart
from breaking that black day
my hopes and dreams all dashed for you
It wasn't meant to be this way
And so without my wanting it
you went to a castle in the sky
where babies play with baby toys
that money can not buy
And I am left here wanting you
and trying to trust and understand
that the lord has a plan for me
and to have faith in his loving hand
But at times it is so hard
when all I want is YOU
and everything you represented
all the things we'll never do
Its times like this I must believe
although it feels like
it will never be ok
that I WILL have a baby here ,
and i'll hold them close one day
My angel baby knows whats best
and I know he will help God find
the perfect little soul for me
in body heart and mind
And when its time for the baby
to come and join us here
My angel will say goodbye for now
and kiss them with a tear
he   will love   his precious sibling briefly
but with all that he is worth ...
and then he'll send him down with a loving whisper
for my mum   to love ....on earth

Thats the one I wrote for Bobsta, but im putting it in here for everyone who has suffered the loss of an angel that touched their womb breifly but flew home too soon

I don't know what to say anymore, the words are just not coming anymore, I just feel blank. I am here reading all your words of support so thank you. Thank you doesn't do how I feel justice, but I want you all to know everything you write is helping me get through each day. I slept all morning and at least the pain is dulled by the drugs. Today is a bed day for me. Hopefully tomorrow I will be better and be able to start doing things again and get back into the routine of life. I know I will find every day hard for awhile but life needs to go on.

Thanks for putting your poem in here kelly, I was going to pm you to ask if I could copy it in here. This place is where I come to feel my sadness, think about things, and release my emotions. I don't know how long I'll keep writing, but for now it's the only thing that helps. I can't watch tv or read as my mind won't focus, and I don't want to sit around and mope, so I write. Afterwards I can function okay till I get sad again, so then I write some more. Look at that, the words just came. I already feel better having gotten this out and letting a few more tears fall.   

Heaf, I am at a loss for words. I am touched by your beautiful poems and it makes me happy to know that my angel was known by others too. She was very special. This part of your poem was just perfect and brought me to happy tears so I wanted you to know that.
"I’m sorry I didn’t tell you I was gone
But you already knew
I had to go, He was calling me
And so my spirit flew "
