    Oh B, my heart just broke for you reading that. Tegam got it I think - it is an earth-shattering thing, so it is ok to be not ok.

    I know what you mean about the little bumps. I'm exactly the same - still. Good friend of mine is the same gestation that I would have been... And every time I see her, my heart aches. Every single time. I can only imagine that it will continue, for some time... But I hope it will get easier. I hope.

    I'll keep you in my prayers, dear B.

    Oh, Miss B. I wish I was lucky enough not to understand what you're going through, but man- do I. It's ok to feel ripped off and flat out devastated. I too wish I wasn't back in here. It sucks. My recent chem was such a shock, and over so quickly that I have found myself questioning that it really happened. Stupidly, I still have the positive test to prove it. I don't want to throw it away. I should be almost 9 weeks. "Should." There you go. I have a bad case of 'the shoulds' right now. It doesn't help that a close friend is pg, at the same gestation I was supposed to be. Every milestone is a reminder, but at the same time I don't want to miss out on her journey either.

    IT SUCKS! My only advice is to allow yourself to feel whatever you want, and don't push yourself to 'return to normal' before it's time. I wish I could take my own advice, but alas....... DP doesn't share the same sadness I do. Again. He never grieves or understands or even cares about our losses. I would've hoped he would at least care that I am hurting, but I can't even tell him. I don't want to share that part of me with him again for him to shoot me down and tell me our baby was 'nothing'. Well, it sure didn't feel like nothing when I held it in my hand and said goodbye, while blood and tears and despair all mix together.

    Sorry, what a massive downer that was.

    I guess that's my way of saying I'm right here beside you, feeling ripped off and not knowing where to turn. I'm so so sorry for your loss.

    I am sorry to read this MissB, it is not an easy path at all. It's more difficult when the world continues to move at such a fast pace and you are not able to be still and be with what is being asked of you. May you feel supported as you walk this journey xx

    Have another one.

    I wish there was something I could do... but I know all too well there is nothing.

    Happy birthday to Cameron for tomorrow, I hope immersing yourself in whatever celebration you have planned for him eases your pain if only for a little while.

    Hi hun, I've been thinking of you. I'm so sorry you're having to go through this - it's just not fair.
    Wishing your little Cam a happy birthday tomorrow (as my Cam celebrates his) - he won't care about any party plans, he'll just be happy with his mummy's cuddles.
    Take care, xx
