I have been through A lot this past year. My husband and I have been trying to have a baby for 5 years and we have had numerous let downs and I carried my last baby my little girl till I was 35 weeks pregnant and i lost her. I just dont know what to do. and of all days it was fathers day. I am strong I know I am but it I feel like I am hiding because I am broken and I put on this strong front but on the inside i am empty. has anyone been through this and how did they get through it

First off I would like to say how sorry I am for your loss. I have been though losing a child, but it was alot earlier. I lost my baby 7 years ago, at 16 weeks. I do little things to help me cope, such as naming him, I made a special christmas decoration to place on my tree, and I wear a little charm bracelet around my ankle with his name on it. I dont think you every really get through it, I think you just learn to cope with it. I think talking about it helps alot, and knowing that he is an angel that looks down on me, helps too. I hope and pray that you will find inner peace and a way of your own to help you and your husband cope with the loss.
