A special mothers day message to those who have had a loss

[Bron]

Dear friends

Tomorrow is mothers day. Last year, I found mothers day to be extremely painful - it was only a few months after our second miscarriage. It occurs to me that some of us may not feel like celebrating tomorrow, and may find the day challenging. If this is you, know that you are not alone.

To all those strong, beautiful women who have suffered a pregnancy loss, my thoughts are with you always, but especially tomorrow. Although I will be cherishing moments with our new baby, I will spend some time reflecting on our two lost souls as well.

Be well

Bron xxxxxx

Thanks Bron, that's really nice.

I'm looking forward to spending my 3rd mothers day with my gorgeous girl, but will also be thinking of the baby I miscarried 6 weeks ago. My DD and I went to put some flowers at my mum's grave earlier today and my DD said 'mummy, I miss nanna and pop and my brother or sister up in heaven'. Aaahh, I was doing so well until she said that then . But then she did a funny dance and made me laugh . I'm so glad I have her. Happy mothers day to everyone!

thats really lovely

but for the past two years something bad has happined four days b4 mothers day and it's been really hard for me

well in 2005 4 days b4 mothers day my mum died of a heart attack and in 2006 4 days b4 mothers day my cat got her neck snaped by someone who was my so called friend and 2007 4 days b4 mothers day i found out that my twins died and that that my body never told me that they died so i carried them around for two weeks without knowing that they had died

Bron what a beautiful thought.

I guess i hadn't thought of it like that. Having lost our twins in april i hadn't thought about mother's day. I was more focused on having them to hold for Christmas. But now that wont be happening. I think i will put some extra flower on my grandmothers grave in the morning and she can give my babies a hug for me.
So to everyone who have their little one's with them and to those who have lose little angels

Happy Mothers Day

BB mummy to be I'm so sorry for your losses. I saw your DP's thread yesterday, and had read some of your previous posts about pains you were having, and a recent trip to the hospital! Sounds like you had a 'missed miscarriage', which is what I had. I thought I had been carrying around a healthy baby just before my miscarriage at 11.5wks, but the baby died at 8 weeks and I didn't know. Sounds like the previous 3 years haven't been kind to you leading up to mother's day. I really don't know what else to say, but I hope you're feeling ok, let yourself grieve and give yourself some time out. I'm still having trouble looking at newborns or seeing pregnant women, but each day gets a little bit easier and hopefully you will feel like TTC in the not too distant future Take care of yourself

Bron, thanks so much for this thread. I am in a way dreading Mother's day as this was the day I m/c our baby boy. I remember the day clearly, we went out, had lunch, etc etc and that night was one of the terrible nights of my life He would've been 6 months now

So sorry to all you beautiful ladies for your losses Hope tomorrow isn't too hard

Thank you so much Bron. What a lovely thread to start.

Im sure there are so many people that are feeling down about tomorrow. I know for me, even three years on that the pain is still there.

Big hugs and kisses for everybody tomorrow, make sure you all pamper yourself.

A very special cuddle for my beautiful friend RM. I will be thinking of you
