This really helped me in my time of loss and pain, actually its still helping in my day-to-day life. I just want to give it a bump for the mama's out there who need to see it.

Thank you. I MCd at only 12weeks 2 years & 2 weeks ago & I still cried at these replies that are so moving. Glad we have a forum like this for others.

I lost a baby 6 weeks ago and have had alot of negative responses as we have 4 children already and even my mother told me it was for the best as there was something wrong with the baby and we have enough children.My mother then continued the conversation by telling me all about my sil's ultrasound and how excited she is about the new grandbaby.I did not even know what to say to her.Thank you for posting this letter as I really needed to read that others have had to live thru the same comments.

Thank you for posting this. I am having a hard time right now. I just lost my baby one month ago at 5 1/2 weeks. It seems as if my husband is even having a hard time understanding. He hasn't grieved at all except for me when I started bleeding. It wasn't until I spent time with my mother a week ago that someone actually said (my mom) that we knew there was at least one little one in heaven that will be waiting for us with my grandparents and other special family. That was the first time I felt like someone "got" the fact that I lost a baby!

Thank you so much for posting this. It has always been difficult to be able to express how I feel when people make these remarks. It has been 2 years now and my heart still aches deeply anytime I think about my baby. What has been the hardest is when people remind me of my loss, for instance when a family member becomes pregnant I am always the last to know. They say, 'we didn't know how to tell you because of your loss.' I appreciate their sentiment but, I don't need to be reminded and I can be genuinely happy for someone else.

Thank you.

Sincerely,
Savannah

I wish I had seen this almost a year ago and passed it out to everyone I knew.
Thank you for this. We are currently planning our next pregnancy, but the pain of losing our last one is still there. Everything you said is spot on. Thank you.

Just wanted to bump this up while I was looking at it.

Thanks for posting this! I mc 2 weeks ago, and had someone close to me actually tell me today, "When are you going to stop using that as an excuse".
