Angel - well said. So true, the more people that talk about m/c the better. With more support we are all able to cope better. It's such a private pain, that often leaves one feeling helpless and a failure. With awareness and understanding this may take some of those "feelings" away and give everyone the support they need.


Wouldn't it be great if our doctors or hospitals could give our support sites (such as this) or people that we could talk to. Even if it is only a name for us to contact when we are ready.

I know that without the wonderful ladies on this site, I would not have coped. My own mother lost two babies (one between her first two children and the other between my sister and myself), even she does not talk about those pregnancies or lost children very often. I know that she didn't understand the way I was feeling when I m/c. I can only imagine when she was having babies the thoughts would have been "it's okay, you'll have another one". Sometimes it's just not that easy.

Jen - had trouble looking for somewhere to looks like the witch has found me. I'm so over it.

Dellydoo - for you and DP. Sounds like a beautiful way to say goodbye.
