Sorry..

One thing I've realized through loosing my daughter is that I don't like people. Apparently I avoid all situations and keep my phone on silent most of the time and that is something so not like me! I even realized I had been avoiding the bump- not because I don't like ya'll but because it just added onto the pain that I felt causing me to not even want to get of bed most days. I finally snapped out of my funk and I'm back. Thank ya'll so much for the kind thoughts words and prayers that ya'll have sent me. I'm a month out today and while it still hurts like hell I'm managing a lot better! Best thing that I can recommend to new moms coming here is to hang in there- it gets really bad before it starts to get better and the women here are by your side don't be afraid to reach out to them! Also find a local support group. Here where I live they have Compassionate Friends- it's for moms who have lost their children at any age. While most of the moms in my group lost their older children, they still get me as well! It's nice to spend time with them and they don't just stare at me because they don't know what to say!   So sorry for the time away ladies... I'm glad to be back

Welcome back I am so glad that you are doing better. You are right some days are much much better than others . The first 3 months were the hardest on me. Glad to have you back.

It's ok if you need to take a break from time to time. I'm so excited you are doing the Promise Walk as well! I've been throwing myself into fundraising and spreading awareness. It's been a wonderful distraction for me.

I'm glad your doing a bit better. Sometimes I don't want to talk to people sometimes, a lot of times I don't answer my phone. Sometimes I'm just not up for it.

Glad your doing better. I found the first 3 weeks to be the most diffcult. I'm 5 weeks out and doing much better, though of course some days I still break down crying. In my area we have empty arms, a group through SHARE. I believe they also do the rememb

I don't think the crying truly ever stops. We will always mourn our lost babies but it does get a little easier the more time passes.

Always do what's best for you.  That can change from day to day but it's ok to focus on yourself.  The first few months are super rough.  To be honest, I still don't care about most people anymore.<
