I...But my baby's death is monolithic and awful<br /><br />I think that last line says it all. My baby died! So many people do not understand that. Just because I never got to hold her in my arms does not mean she was not MY BABY. And it doesn't mean I don't think about her and what she could have been in her life, many times a day. <br /><br />This is something I wish every one could understand. <br /><br />I didn't lose a mass of fetal tissue. <br /><br />MY baby died.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8568619474449091271.post-6659119881167468072009-09-01T01:41:19.145-05:002009-09-01T01:41:19.145-05:00informative..informative..bellonahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17427737772437843428noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8568619474449091271.post-54570240105824688572009-08-31T21:35:27.306-05:002009-08-31T21:35:27.306-05:00I was once at a Bible group and a friend of mine u...I was once at a Bible group and a friend of mine used miscarriage as an analogy for something she was talking about. I had just had a miscarriage. EVERYONE in the room was completely aware and getting uncomfortable except for that friend. She just didn't get it. <br /><br />In fact, she called me later (I had obviously walked out, bawling, and went home) and told me I HAD to forgive her and get over my miscarriage.<br /><br />People can be stupid. I hope you don't have to deal with anyone like that. And for the record, she is no longer a friend, for numerous reasons.Joy@WDDCHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03709113785857792361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8568619474449091271.post-6690231811580768722009-08-31T11:36:23.798-05:002009-08-31T11:36:23.798-05:00This is great because there are so many times peop...This is great because there are so many times people just don't know what to say and so end up saying something unintentionally hurtful.

I know how you feel--I lost my "little surprise" into the toilet last year at about 5 weeks gestation. <br /><br />I'm glad you have so much support from your family and friends. If you need to talk about it with someone else who has been there, feel free to contact me. akharsin at gmailAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8568619474449091271.post-84392093988281358542009-08-31T07:39:45.366-05:002009-08-31T07:39:45.366-05:00I remember finding that list helpful as well.
