    How can I move on from this?

    Hi. This is my first post! I found this forum after searching the internet for some kind of support system.
    Now for my story! (Wow I didn't realise how hard this would be to write.) Life was great up until two days ago. I was nine weeks pregnant and so so happy and excited. This was the 3rd time I was pregnant. The first ended in early m/cs at about 5 weeks. But this time I had reached 9 weeks and felt that everything was going to be OK. Then i started spotting and yesterday morning I lost my beautiful baby ('wicket'). The last 2 m/cs I have been able to just move on. But this time I am not coping as well. I have dreamed of being a Mum since I was a little girl How can I move past this?

    My beautiful 'wicket', 9 weeks - You will always be in my heart!
    5 weeks and 6 weeks.

    Hi Loop,

    I am so sorry to have read your post. Nothing takes the pain of a loss away nor is there any words that anyone can offer that will help you move on.
    Time is your friend and though you may not know it right now, as each day comes and goes you will discover ways around the feelings you have. I don't think you ever get over a loss of any kind nor should we be told too. Just accept the feelings you have, cry when you need to for as long as it takes.
    Know that there are others like you who share your pain and take some comfort there.

    My heart goes out to you.

    LOOP - i'm so sorry to hear of your losses. BB will be an amazing support for you as you grieve your angels and start to heal, but even more as you grieve your losses right now

    the loss you have suffered is immense, and you need to let yourself grieve - you need to feel the hurt and the anger, and not expect yourself to be ready to "move on" just because the physical part of your loss is over. emotional healing takes a hell of a lot longer. don't push yourself to be ready - you will be ready to take the next steps when the time is right for you and you alone.

    take care of yourself - physically and emotionally

    Oh, Loop, I'm so sorry to read of your losses! My heart breaks for you! I'm glad you found BB, and hope you find strength and support from the great women here! I know how lonely it can feel, and the questions that won't stop running through your mind...grief is a long process, you have to allow yourself the time you need to vent, scream, cry...whatever it takes, you just have to get it out. It will get better, it just takes time, and some days will be better than others. For me, BB has been my saving grace, I hope it helps you as much as it has helped me in my healing process. Don't forget that we're all here for you! Big for you! You're in my thoughts and

    I am so sorry Loop for the loss of your baby "Wicket".

    The loss of a baby is a huge thing in anyone's life - it takes time. Slowly slowly the sadness becomes less constant. But always you will have the memory of your baby and the hopes and dreams for him/her.

    Be kind to yourself. Feel the sunshine - perhaps honour your little one with a ceremony, plant a rose bush or some other plant. Some women buy a piece of jewellery that is in memory of your lost baby.

    YOu will find much loving support here on Belly Belly - take your time to feel all the emotions that you are feeling as you grieve.

    Sending you comfort and support.
