Late Term and Child Loss

Still Standing Magazine Article

https://stillstandingmag.com/2014/07/child-dies/

 

I found this to be such a great article! Even in the loss family, I still feel like an outsider. Like I don't belong because we are not trying for another right now, I am not pregnant again and we don't have other children. We feel completely empty without Brooke.

Thought this might help others that feel this way see that they are not alone.

Re: Still Standing Magazine Article

  • Thank you for sharing.  The author of that article stated exactly what I feel everyday.  She mentions how people don't recognize her as a mother because they cannot see her child - awful, heartbreaking, and unfortunately true.

    I love reading articles like this. I have a few moments when I think to myself, "Finally, someone gets it." Thank you for posting!

  • I really resonated with this article as well. I'd like to be in the "TTCAL" club, but my health issues are getting in the way. And even then, TTC doesn't mean healthy baby. We all have difficult journeys. Different, but difficult. Thanks for sharing!

  • I read the article this morning and couldn't have felt more understood and well-represented. 

    I love when I read something that rings so true to me- makes me feel less alone and crazy.
