Parents of lost babies and potential of all kinds: come here to share the technicolour, the vividness, the despair, the heart-broken-open, the compassion we learn for others, having been through this mess — and see it reflected back at you, acknowledged and understood.

Thanks to photographer Xin Li and to artist Stephanie Sicore for their respective illustrations and photos.

parenting after loss > I want my baby

Its been 4 months since I lost you my heart it hurts so bad. I just want to see you I want you to be with me. Why did this happen. I think about going to heaven just for a moment so I can see you. I feel so alone I don't want anyone. I only want you. I know I have to get up and take care of my family and go to work ...but its not the same anymore cause a part of my heart is gone. Mommy loves you I Cant wait till the day we can play together in heaven

I am so sorry for your loss. I am sorry we have all had to go through this. It has been a year and a half and I still long to be able to visit my Janice. I want to feel her hug and hear her voice. But I can't with the exception of hearing her on videos that we made. I guess I am luck in that sense that I have videos. Sadly the longing never goes away.
Sending you strength

Angie. I'm so sorry. Mother's Day is such a tough time to be in the early months. Hang in there.

Feel free to post in the ONE & ALL thread too where more people will see it.

Peace.
