I was always on pins and needles even in the joy and complaints. <br /><br />Families really need more awareness of this as many women do go through miscarriages and don't have the support they need. People think they should get over it in 3 months or so. That' can't happen. It's always an ongoing thing. It's apart of their lives. <br /><br />I'm so glad you have the support you need and I am sorry for your loss. <br /><br />My SIL has a miscarriage many years ago and she still needs to talk about it. Even now she wonders what her daughter would be like you know. It doesn't leave you...it's definitely not something you just get over. <br /><br />Thank you for sharing.Colette Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04844522784600855200noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9042017014273025624.post-17154793902823074282009-08-18T00:51:57.821-04:002009-08-18T00:51:57.821-04:00This is a wonderful post.

I was worried that maybe I was just too sensitive when I found myself getting angry whenever I heard those words after my miscarriage. I know they weren't meant that way, but it really felt like they were invalidating the pain I was in... like it was somehow not a loss. But it was!<br /><br />Awareness is such a good thing. Thank you so much for helping spread these important words!!!Robinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03695273565973900159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9042017014273025624.post-38765270175827217172009-08-17T18:26:39.648-04:002009-08-17T18:26:39.648-04:00This is a great post Emily.

I will have to remember to come back and look at it if I have another friend who miscarries.<br /><br />I am so sorry.

I guess it's one of those things that will always be with you, but hopefully over time the pain will diminish.. It has to. I just hope it happens sooner rather than later for you! *Hug*<br />I have never had a miscarriage myself, but my sister-in-law has had two - one before each of her successful pregnancies. I can't even begin to imagine how horrible she must have felt, especially while were visiting our in-laws last Christmas when I was 4 months pregnant and she had just had her second miscarriage. I felt so bad, but I just didn't know what to say... and she kept breaking down. It was so heart-breaking! So, thanks for the advice. I hope I never have to use it, but it will sure come in handy if I do...nellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10405866119110871174noreply@blogger.com
