Ok, some of you might remember be from last year, some might not. my name was EmziiChick-x and i came on here and spoke about my ex leaving me to move to london, i was alone and scared. I left here once i found i was pregnant, but last august i had a miscarriage. Me and my ex where always arguing about it, and after a while i decided i wanted to keep the baby, but obviously it wasnt meant to be I miss that baby so much every single day, all i have left is a scan. On the 7th August, it will be a year since it happened and to be honest, i have no idea what im going to do with myself on that day :crying: Does anyone have any ideas on what i could do to remember the baby in a nice way that will help me feel any better? It still hurts so much, like it only happened yesterday.

my mum has lost 4 babies, and we planted apple trees in chalice well gardens in glastonbury in their memory. i go to visit them pretty much every year. i've written a poem about the little sister i never had...
don't know if that helps. i'm still thinking of what to do for the loss of mine, i like the idea of planting something, so that something living carries on the memory.
what you are feeling is perfectly normal
I'm really sorry to hear about your loss. Honouring your baby on August
7th sounds like a really good idea.
If you want any support from others who've lost babies you could check out SANDS website. It might help to remind you that there are a lot of people who've lost their babies and that there is no time by which you should have got over that. Keep posting here and let us know what you do to commemorate your precious baby.
Take care
Depending on where you are, in Lichfield Memorial Aboretum there is a SANDS garden dedicated to remembering babies lost. And actually, in my local cemetery there is a baby section with this poem on the plinth:
To All Our Babies
Lent Not Given
Who Bud on Earth
And Bloom in Heaven
Hope things get easier!
