so much emotion

Hi, i lost my baby march 2015 he was stillborn, I'm still coming to terms with it. I'm now pregnant again 16 weeks, I've not had a good time of it, I have had scans been cancelled, had horrendous sickness and mood swings. I cry a lot and at times feel so lost and depression. I feel very alone in this pregnancy. I'm always exhausted badly too and out of breath, it makes it hard to look after the other children I have. I also have a very big bump for my weeks, I look 6 months. Beginning to think pregnancy hates me, can anyone relate?

Sorry for your loss I can not imagine your pain. rainbow babies are usually healthy. Try your local wic office for support they have people that can help with grieving and if you have depression after your baby is born. don't be afraid to talk to someone even if it's here for help support or advice. most everyone understands.

Ladies I would like to say I'm sorry for your loses,  I went through 4 miscarriages, my last one was in march of last year,  at times we go through the storms in life,  but the other side of the storm there is light,my testimony is that I prayed every day that god would bless me with another child,  I have a son that is 14 he was like mom I wish god would blessed you to carry a baby full term,  all my miscarriages allow me to carry at 8weeks,  but guess what god bless me with a miracle baby I'm proud to say I'm 30 weeks,ladies I feel your pain,  baby you carrying another life give that baby a chance to be happy,cause that baby will come out being depress,sing to that baby pray,talk too him or or ladies we all done went through it, but pray and as god too see you through this journey call life,  be blessed

First I am so very very sorry for your losses. I cannot imagine the pain and the hurt this has caused you both. My heartaches for you. Secondly, I am sure losing your baby has made it very hard to enjoy this pregnancy out of fear. I can't say that I blame you. I have not had a stillborn baby yet I so fear it. How I would cope and continue.

Just know that what you are feeling is normal. Grieving the loss of babies is something that will never end.  However hard though try to find as much joy as possible with your newest little ones.

Thinking and praying for you both xoxox

First I appreciate you both sharing your stories. Know I am keeping you both in prayer. My cousin and his wife had 2 miscarriages around 6 months and now are blessed with twins. It's hard to understand why God gives us this, but focus day by day, praying over your child, 1 Samuel 1. Not sure of your religions, but this was my prayer for my first child. After 2 abortions I was nervous if I'd be able to carry a child. Praying for God's favor over your bodies and his grace and mercy.

Hi Mummybrown...I am just like you...I had a stillbirth in April last year and was pregnant by October.  I am now 34 weeks today and this is the week I lost daughter. This pregnancy has been so hard and I cry alot too.pure fear that it will all end every day. My family live far away and I am not close with my Mam anyway. I feel alone alot of the time and question why have I put myself through all this but then I tbink of this baby and I am desperate to hold him and have him in my arms. I have two daughters too to look after and worry about too if this ends bad. Every day is a struggle to keep positive but you just got to focus on one day at a time...
Hope you are ok...it's hard to find people to talk to in pregnancy when you have had a stillbirth cause they just wana ne happy and excited but not hear the fears and the dread. If you need to chat I'm here.xx
