Dumbo and miscarriage

Mary • Wife💍 Angel momma🧸 Rainbow due March🌈

After my miscarriage the movie dumbo became very close to my heart. The beginning part with the storks seemed very symbolic of miscarriage and trying to conceive. I really felt for mrs Jumbo in this scene in particular as the storks delivered babies to everyone except her. You see her excitement of thinking she’s getting a baby, and the basket flying away, followed by her feeling of hopelessness. Maybe I’m crazy, but it reminds me of my experience.

I feel the same way. I went to Disneyland a week after my miscarriage in March. First of all, there were pregnant women everywhere. There was even a woman wearing the shirt I had intended to wear to announce my pregnancy at Disneyland. At California Adventure there is a building that plays songs from Disney movies with beautiful scenes from the movie. When I was there they played Baby of Mine from Dumbo and holding myself together was the hardest thing I’ve ever done.

I always loved the movie Dumbo. The part were Mrs. Jumbo was holding new born Dumbo swaddled up rocking him with her trunk makes me cry.
