Haidee,
What a great platform you’ve created. A place for these stories to be told. They need to be written and they need to be heard. I feel for Jessie, so much. My heart and prayers are with her. But I am also proud of you both. Speaking out can change how people feel, once it’s made real to others they can empathize more, listen better and love bigger. I think that if we share our pain it can heal. And we all share it, making us all better.

Thank you to each and every one of you who has commented and been brave enough to share your experiences too. Writing this was a very healing process for me and I am grateful to Haidee @ Maybe Baby Brothers. …and me, for allowing me to do this. For those of you who have commented about your losses, I am deeply proud of you for sharing and I wish you all the best on your journey to healing. I send love to all your babies lost. I like to think they are all hanging out in a beautiful place and watching over us while we keep them in our hearts forever. Don’t stop talking about them and don’t be afraid to talk about them either. As bereaved parents, lets quash this taboo stereotype that miscarriage has, and make it normal to remember them loud and proud! All me love, Jessi.

Good on you for talking about it. I was extremely fortunate and never experienced a miscarriage, but I can imagine it would be awfully difficult. I always thought in terms of it being our precious baby right from the second I knew I was pregnant, and would have been devastated to lose even one. Big hugs x

My heart breaks for you Jessi. I’ve never experienced a miscarriage so I can’t fully comprehend what you’re going through, but experiencing infertility for years I can relate to some of what you mention. Especially about being jealous of other people who can get pregnant and have babies and also the comments from others about “it’s obviously not meant to be” that I should have a child or “it’ll happen when its the right time” etc. People don’t understand just how horrible their comments really are. Like you though I feel going through this has made me love my daughter so much more and appreciate everything with her a lot more than if I hadn’t had trouble conceiving her. I hope you’re successful in having another baby {if you’re still trying} and I hope you find lots of feathers x

I’ve never suffered a miscarriage so I can’t fully comprehend the heartache. But I do understand that the pregnancy, in the early days, is absolutely a baby as far as it’s parents are concerned. So I do understand how tough some of those comments must be. It’s a good reminder to think before you speak!

Jessi, my heart goes out to you. Someone close to me has just been through a miscarriage involving two babies. It was really tough for her and our family. I can’t imagine having to go through it over and over again. Sending you much love and luck.
