    Just want to introduce myself

    Hi,
    My name is Bronny, and I'm so, so glad I discovered this site! I had a miscarriage on the 11th February, I was 11 weeks 3 days.
    I already have two beautiful girls - 5 1/2 and 2 years, who have given me so much strength over the last 11 days.
    Our 3rd pregnancy took us by surprise, but our baby was extremely loved. It was such a shock when very slight spotting led us to discovering we had lost our precious little bub.
    I still struggle with the extreme emptiness of walking out of the hospital with empty arms and an empty heart.
    It's a relief to have somewhere I can share my feelings & emotions without worrying about people's reactions (i really am over people telling me "you already have two gorgeous kids, just be grateful for them" - it doesn't make the grieving any easier though!)
    Thanks for reading!
    Bronny

    My love to you at this difficult time.
    Make sure you take time to grieve your loss regardless of what others say.
    No matter how many children you have you will be upset with the loss of a child, no matter what stage you were at.
    Give your 2 precious girls a hug, your girls hugs will help you heal as they are from the heart and very real. (hope that makes sense)

    Sorry to hear of your loss

    People struggle to find the right things to say and often say things we dont want to hear. They dont mean to, but i know how it makes you feel. I felt the same way at times.

    Sending you lots of strength

    the women on this site are incredible. You'll find you can talk about anything, and share off of your thoughts and feelings - just as i have.
    So sorry to hear of your loss. i know just how you feel.

    Hi Bronny, welcome to BB and I am so very sorry for your loss . A loss is a loss, no matter in which circumstance or whether you have children or not. It makes me so mad when people say silly things, probably without realising how hurtful they sound. But the truth is, they don't mean to upset you, they just want to cheer you up, except it comes out all wrong. Or they don't know what to say!!
    I hope your heart will heal soon, thinking of you hun.
