Question by Flor: Has anyone loss a child at 6 month pregnancy?? help?
Ok. this is what happened my sister just lost her 6 month baby a few days ago. She is extremelly depressed and it hurts me so much looking at her suffering. I really dont know what to do to make her feel better. I just want to know from women who were pregnant and loss their babies, what did help during those dificult times? I have been looking for support groups near my area but there is not any. I am really worried, my syster doesnt want to eat, she has nightmares, she wanted her baby so much. This is extremelly sad. Any advice?

Question by E: Why are people acting like my miscarriage is no big deal?
I miscarried at 9 weeks only a day ago.(the miscarriage started 3 days ago). Physically, it was horribly painful and I was in the ER for complications. Emotionally, it’s been crushing.

My family and friends don’t seem to care. My mother actually asked me if it was because I ran (I’m a distance runner). I’ve had others tell me it was for the best, a good thing that it hapened early so I didn’t get too attached, and at least it wasn’t a real baby yet. And those are just from the 3 people who called. Everyone else seems to be avoiding me and acting like I should just get other it. A lot of people knew about this as the miscarriage started at a large family gathering.

Question by T-Mama: Do you think a “Miscarriage/Infant Loss Support” section should be included under Pregnancy and Parenting?
Do you think it could be helpful? Or do you think it would be unnecessary?

(Please at least be respectful if you are inclined to think it’s not necessary. There are many parents out there who have experienced miscarriages or infant/child loss.)
Amy M, why not include both? Sounds like both could be useful.
Ugh, I didn’t even think about trolls. That would be a terrible place for trolling. And you know someone would do it, sadly.

The Part of Parenting We're Too Scared to Talk About

Filed under: infant loss

What I am describing is the buildup of resentment and a loss of control that many "normal" mothers experience but can never safely discuss. It's too ugly, and … My irrational anger toward this baby I loved more than I could have imagined stunted me …
