    Everyone responds a little differently, but your loss is just as deep, and just as important. I hope that you have been able to cope. Wishing you love and happiness to fill your wounded heart.

    Hi, I lost my son last week at 24 weeks old, and I don't think it matters if you lose him at 20 weeks or 40 weeks its a baby, we had to be induced, give birth to him and then bury him. He will always be my first born son!

    I'm sorry for your loss. I lost my little boy at the same amount of time at 24 weeks. Walked into the drs and there was no heartbeat. That was two and a half weeks ago. I find that I'm searching the internet to know I'm not alone. Cause sometimes I feel that way. Thank you for sharing your story it means alot from a stranger, I know exactly how you feel.

    No matter if you were 24 weeks or 40 weeks, the pain cannot be any different. You are a mother who lost a child, and that is the most painful thing ever.



    I lost my daughter at 37 weeks this past April. The pain is very raw and the feeling and thoughts you have will seem so wrong at times. I know that I am very angry and sad, depends on the moment. I am jealous of others and their babies, I don't feel happy for others as I should and that feels so wrong.



    I have been told that with time it will get easier to deal with and it has, I think no matter what happens in my life the pain will always be there.

    There is no right or wrong way to greive, just be sure to take care of yourself!

    How can you say that? You have the right to feel as sad as you need too. I had a very difficult pregnancy and my son was in the NICU he made it out okay but the constant termoil of whether he or I would live was sickening at best. I was more angry then sad. I treated people like **** and every little thing got to me. You will be okay as long as you let yourself go through the emotions and make sure you see a counselor to deal with the grief. It can be toxic to your mind and body if you dont have some help dealing with it.
