This is how I got through the my child and pregnancy loss in the early months (0-6 months). In March 2008 I lost my 4 month old daughter. In November 2008 I lost my 2nd daughter to stillbirth at only 32w2d into my pregnancy.

Lots of Love to you, you have done the best you can with your situation. Thank you for sharing and I wish you, Noah and your husband all the best!! May the new year bring you all the joy possible, you deserve it my love!!!
@love2nurse I’m so sorry to hear about your loss. How bitter sweet that day must have been. I could only imagine how hard it must be having one of the twins home with you. But again I can see how it might be a form of comfort. I don;t know if that made any sense. And to have your husband have to leave so soon after everything happened. Ugh I wish I could give you a big hug! Much love to you, lady. It does change who you are without a doubt.
Thank you for this video! I appreciate you honesty and straight forwardness. I lost one of my twins at 6 weeks old. He passed away the day I brought his brother home from the NICU. So, I understand when you said that you had things to keep you focused on the grieving. I had my son to focus on. My son is 7 months now. It has been a rollercoaster ride of feelings because my husband had to go to Afghanistan soon afterwards. Im a different person. No one understands if you havent been through it.
Im in tears. I know ive said this before and i’ll say it again, im so sorry for your loss(es) & the pain/suffering youve been through. My heart & prayers go out to you. ****Tears XO
I have been blessed with a precious baby boy since, he is 12 weeks old :0)
I felt exactly the same after my loss in August 2010. I was in total shock and my mind just could not process it. Holding my tummy wishing my baby was still there, growing and kicking was soooo painful. My family and people in general were unsupportive, nobody understood, people would say * well you have 3 kids, just be grateful for that * They wouldnt let me grieve, like l had no right. I felt alone,it was hard! I found help and comfort thanks to people like you. Thanks for sharing and good
@vloggingmama No one does deserve it but as sad as it is, it happen all too often. I wish there was a way for all babies to be given a chance at life.
@oswestryGIRL Ugh, so sorry for your mom’s and your loss. How old were you when he passed? That’s sweet though that she can see other children and think back at sweet moments of her son.
@jollyjess6 Yes, not knowing the cause has been the hardest part b/c I don;t know what I can do to prevent it in the future. I feel like I’m a ticking time bomb. That’s the one thing that scares me about getting pregnant again.
@SurvivingbyGrace I remember holding my belly and crying for countless hours too. It’s a deep feeling of despair. Horrible horrible feeling. SO glad that God has blessed us with our rainbow babies! Much love to you!
@TTCaMiniMash Thank you. So sorry you had a hard time with your loss. But I did too. I think most everyone has a hard time with it. It just gets easier with time.
@ReillyAJ Thanks for watching!
My heart hurts for you. NO ONE deserves the pain that you had to go through.
My mom lost her son at 3yrs and she tells other people times a great healer she talks bout him still and if my son or nephew does something he did she says ohh … Used to do that or love that .
I can’t imagine not knowing the cause. I feel it really helps me to know why Zane passed away. Although it scared me when I was pregnant to think it could happen again.
I felt the same way losing my first pregnancy at 20 weeks. I was engorged and had to go through a D&C and leave the hospital empty handed. That was in November of 09′ and all I ever wanted after that was to be pregnant again right away. To fill that emptiness inside of me. I remember crying day and night holding my belly what once had a growing child and praying to God that he would make me pregnant again and soon. He did in December and I am so extremely blessed by His grace to have had Brayden
I admire you, I truly do. You are exceptionally strong. I did not handle mine well and wish I had been able to relate to someone at the time to help build my strength back up. You’ve said so many things women who have lost can relate to. I am positive this will help many many women in their darkest hours. I am so sorry that you lost your two sweet little girls. God bless all of you! XOXO <3
@ToyaandJordann It’s crazy too b/c anyone else would think we had lost it when really I think it’s totally normal for moms who have just lost to have thoughts like this. Thinking of you this upcoming Christmas season. ((hugs))
@08jaydensmommy08 Thanks. Losses truly are very difficult. I never even thought about m/c, stillbirth or infant death until it happened to me. I didn’t even know of such things. :/
@mina247 Thank you.
@xUrrrrrX Thanks you.
@JrdnLeigh PM me and we can talk. I’m so sorry for the loss your sister is going through. Sending her much love and many prayers for strength and comfort.
@JHaettich We feel copletely blessed to have Noah in our lives. And we rest in the promise that we soon one day will see our girls again.
@TheButttaflygrl383 It’s really crazy what the loss of a child will do to your mind in the way of how you think for a while. Sorry for your loss.
@karenrization So sorry for your loss. The feeling is not something easily forgotten.
