i lost my son at 21 weeks 5 days. he was born on oct 13 2010. i feel lost and i dont know what to do. we buried him last week. i need help. i am so sad and it doesnt seem that anyone understands. i have a 4 n a half year old daughter as well and she is so confused about what happened to the baby in the belly.
my water broke at 20 weeks so i was put on bed rest. i had such high hopes that i would make it to 24 weeks and my pregnancy would then be "viable." i know that the chances were slim to have a perfectly helthy baby but i wanted this baby to be fine so bad that i tricked myself into thinking that everything would be fine. now i feel lost.
I have no advice but I am very sorry for your loss. Your entire family will be in our prayers.

I am sorry for your loss. I don't know if you would be interested in an online support group but if so, you could try dailystrength.org. They have a stillbirth group and a miscarriage group.
I am so sorry this has happened to you. Last Oct. I lost my baby at 19 wks. We had gone to have an ultrasound done & found out his heart had stopped beating. It was the saddest I have ever been. I don't know of any support groups in your area. We were provided that information through the hospital where he was born. I did look at some online, but for me, it was too painful to hear about all these other people who had gone through the same or worse. My husband & I got through it by being each others support. We talked about everything that we felt, the good, the bad and the ugly. It made our relationship even stronger. It was hard to talk to other people, they didn't know what to say, or somehow didn't think the grieving process should be as long as it was. My advice is to do whats right for you. Cry when you need to, yell when you need to, and make sure that someone is there to hold you when you need it. Take the time you need. My thoughts and prayers go out to you.
First off I want to tell you I am so sory for the loss you just endured. Please know that it is going to take time and healing from God to see you through. I loss my son as a newborn in October 2006. After a few weeks I joined "footprints on the Heart" a bereavement gruop headed by a women
named Fran . You can contact Sisters Hospital in Buffalo and ask to speak to her. I will be praying for you and your family.
Let me begin by saying that I am very sorry for your loss. I miscarried at only 7 weeks in August and you're right - it is a helpless feeling that no one, even someone who's been through it, can understand. Everyone's situation is so different. I don't know if you are religious or not, but Ss. Peter and Paul in Hamburg has a group, the Elizabeth Ministry, whose mission is basically women supporting women. I actually never contacted them when I miscarried, but you might want to think about it. They are having a Mass on December 10 at Ss. Peter and Paul for parents who have lost children at any age - I do plan to go to that. Again, I am very sorry for your loss. Feel free to contact me if you want.
