" I am so sorry that you are sad. losing a baby is a devistating experience. i have endured 3 losses. the most recent was on Oct. 31st. I was 13 wks. It is very challenging to try and get through every day without crying and wanting what i cant have. All i can offer for advise is to go ahead and cry. it really does help in my opinion. "

" I share your feelings. My loss was on October 16 and I keep hitting milestones (when I planned to mention it at work, for example) and anticipating the next ones. I am slowly feeling normal but expect an ugly setback for Thanksgiving when I might have been showing, Christmas, which is the first time I would have seen my family while pregnant, etc. I know our feelings are legitimate and allowable, but I would still just rather be happily, healthily pregnant.

" I know how you feel, around a year ago this week, I miscarried. I would have had a 3 month old by now, but, I've came to peace with it. Its never ever easy, and its somthing you'll never ever forget. But crying is the best thing you can do to get it out. I had my share of tears, hey, I still do from time to time. Just take it a day at a time. Take care. "

" I understand. This time last year I was pregnant and thought I would be sharing Halloween, Tgiving and Xmas with my baby. It is hard. I cried alot on Halloween and am all set with the Holidays. What makes it worse is my 2 best friends and sister in law all had babies this year. I feel completely isolated from them as though I am not part of the mother's group. It sucks. I want to runaway from it all every day. Every day is a struggle. I wonder if one day I will just pick up and go. "

" I'm so sorry. I totally understand how you feel. Exactly a year ago I found out I was pregnant. I lost my twin girls at 23 weeks. It's completely normal to be sad, angry and all those things something very precious was taken from us. I think it's not healthy to hold everything in. I think eventually we will learn to live with this pain and life will be kind normal again. Or at least that's what I hope for. "

" I know where you're coming from. I lost my baby the Saturday after Thanksgiving last year, and I'm not really looking forward to that weekend this year. In fact, I'm dreading the kind of feelings it will bring up. I'm so sorry for your loss. Hang in there. "
