The pain never goes away, you just slowly learn to deal with it better.

My daughter died 3 years ago, she was 2 weeks old. I kept it bottled up and developed bad anxiety issues. You will all learn to smile again one day but for now just take each day at it comes, remember there is no right or wrong way to grieve and try to find an outlet, where it be writing, talking or doing some proactive.

Things will get better, just be kind to yourself and those around you xx

I took up fire staff. 1. Because it's dangerous and 2. It was the only way to vent my anger after having an abortion due to no growth. I stopped washing myself, changing my clothes, going out, but I snapped out of it when I started my new job a month later, I still feel depressed but not as much

I was the same, I had a hellish year and a bit, I got a job and 'snapped out of it' but then quit that (due to the hours) and I've started sinking again, I couldn't even leave the house full stop before and I'm determined not to let it get to that this time, I need to keep myself busy x

Lisa Stars is a fab charity that needs people knitting clothing, tiny moses baskets and tiny teddies etc if anyone has some spare time and can knit.

Sending big hugs to you and your family. Its an absolutely devastating time for you all. I lost my first son 10 years ago and it still hurts now. Then my niece...

In fact, big hugs to anyone who has suffered the loss of a child. Its the most painful thing to go through and live with.

Losing a baby is heart breaking. I lost five babies. Not a day goes by when I dont think of them. Youneed to grieve the loss. The pain eases and you learn to cope with it.

So sorry to you and all your family at this sad time.

There are no words that can take away pain only time and there is no set time for it, it takes as long as it takes for it to get easier. Its important to grieve and go through the process for the heart to heal, and it does eventually. My thoughts go out to you and your family.

Lost a son 16 years ago when ex wife was 8 months gone, watched his heartbeat slowdown and stop on monitor during check up. Never got over it, but not sure this is the place to talk about it.

Take time and accept what you are feeling. Be aware of what the parents and grandparents are feeling. You all grieve but some will take longer to move through the stages. There is no right or wrong and time does work its healing powers.

This time of year I feel the loss of all of my babies. My very prem son was the only one born alive and 22 years on I still see his little face when I wake.

Yeats' The Cloths of Heaven is the poem that I turn to as it speaks of my grief that my hopes of losing the potential my son had was such a delicate thing.

Well hasn't this thread brought things into perspective.

It's so sad reading all your stories, and experiences, I can't come close to imagining how you all feel. I don't and god forbid, hope I never will. It's gut wrenching.
