I Don't get it? some people don't know what to say when they haven't been in a situation similar to mine, so your bound to get some comments that you find upsetting or not very helpful.
But people constantly saying to me i need to 'get over', 'forget', 'move on', start fresh', 'not think about it' really does NOT help!? How can you forget about a child you have lost? ok yes it was still growing inside of me, but does that stop me loving it? if they were here now they would be 3 years old, how can you 'forget' that?!
Some things are easier said than done, all i ask is that people walk a mile in my shoes and tell me they can do the things they suggest me to do, I am grateful that i lost my baby whilst it was still early on in my pregnancy, i worship the men and womens strength that have lost babies and children through infant loss i can't say i would be as strong! and could never think what it would be like for me to go through that! But the pain is still similar to me i lost a baby that would have grown into a beautiful child of my own that i love so much!, i wish everyday was different and i could go back to when i was pregnant, just to have 'that' feeling, to feel normal, to feel belonging, to feel something.
Instead i sit here feeling worthless, faded, a failure, a nobody!
I know that not many people understand me, and i am a very negative person, i wish i wasn't trust me! I annoy alot of people, and they try to avoid me, but all i ask is for them to imagine going through what i have gone through, imagine how I feel!!
I walk around with a smile on my face and act like i have no problems in the world but deep down i go to bed everynight wishing this was all a bad dream, but i wake up thinking, oh great another day of being a failure, a worthless, a nobody....
I am 100% with you. I get all that too! 'Just relax and don't think of it' I'm told. 'It'll happen when you least expect it'
ReplyDeleteI've had numerous miscarriages and each is as difficult as the last. I will never get over losing my babies, EVER. And NOTHING anyone will ever say will make me feel better. I think of my lost babies every single day, especially my Chloe who I saw. It's heartbreaking. I'm always here for you xxx
