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.

I’m 26+2, this is my third pregnancy after loss after my daughter died at term, I’ve had two girls since and this is a little boy. I have an obvious bump now, and when I see people they are excited for me and I’m just disassociating from it. I just want to be excited too and happy. Even though I’ve had two children since I can’t just think to myself pregnant means baby. It’s the pits.
