does this get easier?

Its only been a day since I had my miscarriage.  I am physically and emotionally drained.  I keep seeing babies and pictures of babies.  It just breaks my heart,  like that should be me.  For those of you who have gone through this,  when does it get a little easier?

Their is no time limit. I had an ectopic pregnancy in Feb. I still play the " I would be finding out soon boy or girl" or im finally in my second trimester." I don't think the loss ever really goes away. Just have to remind myself, it wasn't my fault. It just happend. I could of had it a lot worse then some woman ( this isn't to disregard Anyone else's

I learned it got easier once you accepted the fact that there was probably nothing you could've done. I lost my baby early in pregnancy and it still hit hard. It helps to talk to people friends, family, or someone else who has gone through this. I had a great support system from my boyfriend and his Dad and once I accepted the fact that my baby is in a better place I got better.

My son had T18. Had an extra chromosome :(. He wouldn't mentally & physically handicapped. Never would've walked, talked, or been able to do for himself. T18 is very rare...its worse than downs. Downs is usually more of an age thing but T18 isn't.. everyone has a risk no matter your age. I just try to think of it like this, God adopted my son & he's perfect now!

It does you just need to take it easy and it takes time with suport  in october I was 17 week and went into full labor and gave birth to a boy it was hard seeing my baby like that and if he was bigger 3 week they could have done something i will never forget that day but when the time is right you'll have another one . Now I'm 13 week and happy to have another chance

Its been almost a year since I lost my son at 20 weeks gestation due to T18. I still have a hard time with it..even tho we are expecting a lil girl (baby#3) in September. I keep a notebook in which I write to him seems crazy but it isnt to me. It actually has gotten a lil easier but I can't seem to talk about it much. In honor of my Kolton Rayne, I got a tattoo on my back with angel wings, his foot prints, name and date he was born. Even tho he was a stillborn he was still born to me.

Sorry for your loss. Its going to take time. Allow yourself to grieve and find someone to talk too. Some hospitals have support groups

It does take a long time it took me about 7 months to cope with it and that was when I got pregnant again but you'll have your good days and bad days just stay strong

It all depends on you. I had a miscarriage on Christmas eve in 2011 and then gave birth in 2013. It still breaks my heart knowing my baby died and I cry every now and then, but what can we do? Only accept the fact that they're with God and we'll meet them in a later date <3 I'm sorry for your loss but it'll get better hun. Let your baby go "rest", so he or she can play with the angels.

It will get easier. I had a miscarriage last October at 17 weeks. It took me a long time to get use to the fact of i lost my little boy. I couldn't talk about it for awhile now I am very open and can tell people Bout my experience in labor. I went to the church I go to and talked to someone. Maybe if u had someone u could talk to about it about it and give you advise that may help. I know it helped me alot.
