Chinook Posted April 3, 2008 Posted April 3, 2008 ML, I'm 2 years post m/c. I know how painful it is. I wouldn't say it gets easier as time passes, but you learn to cope with it. Somehow. Hang in there.
Walking away Posted April 3, 2008 Posted April 3, 2008 I lost two children in my second trimester. It was like walking around in a nightmare. I am so, so sorry. WA
Walking away Posted April 3, 2008 Posted April 3, 2008 If I may... When I woke up in the recovery room, I found this note from a woman who was in the operating room when they took the first baby I lost.... A Baby's Secret I'm just a little baby who didn't quite make it there; I went straight to be with Jesus but I'm waiting for you here. Don't you fret about me Mommy, I'm alright and am most blessed; I'd have loved to stay there with you but the Shepherd knows what's best. Many dwelling here where I live waited years to enter in' Struggled through a world of sorrow and their lives were marred by sin. So sweet Mommy, don't you sorrow, wipe those tears and chase that gloom; I went straight to Jesus' bosom from my lovely Mother's womb. Thank you for the life you gave me. It was brief but don't complain; I have all of heaven's glory, suffered none of earthling's pain. I'll be waiting for you, Mommy. You and Daddy and the rest. I'll be with you then forever and will give you all a kiss...

mark982 Posted April 3, 2008 Posted April 3, 2008 i'm sorry for your terrible loss. happened to us in the early 80's. that poem brought a tear to my eyes.
Walking away Posted April 3, 2008 Posted April 3, 2008 It has been 13 years since I lost my two little ones... and that poem still comforts me and makes me cry even today. I just had to share it.... Hope it provides some comfort...

Thankyou, that's a beautiful poem can't stop crying but it's lovely I'm sorry for your losses, but i find comfort in knowing im not alone and people understand what im going through. My family don't understand, they didn't hear of my pregnancy till i miscarried...to them it wasn't real...if that makes sense..(was in my first trimester)? My parents were relieved (sorry as well of course) as my pregnancy was unplanned, the father bolted and i'd just set on a new life. I don't have many friends and the ones i've spoke to snap at me...tell me i should get over it and move on 'it wasnt even a proper baby yet you didnt even know it'...which just hurts and causes arguments. My baby meant more to me than my first love and it took me a few years to get over him, that was ok...everyone can relate to that pain but for some reason with this pain i feel as though every time i try to speak about it or want to cry everyone goes quiet and shoves the topic under the rug as if its taboo like im a bad person ive said or done something wrong. Just hurts, guess thats why they call it the silent greif. Edited April 4, 2008 by MoonlightLover
