Do I still count??

Question

Do I get to be celebrated as a mother too even though my child is not here with us? Does it matter that I never got to hold my child or hear his/her heartbeat? Does it make a difference that I was "only 10 weeks along" when my baby had to leave us?

With Mother's Day approaching and the 1 year anniversary of my miscarriage, I'm having a really hard time with coping. Why can't I just be a mother?

Answer

I found this after I lost my baby at 9 weeks. You are a mother to an angel believe that and do not let others tell you you aren't.

Answer

I can't even imagine momma. I'm so sorry :( i have never been able to conceive, we've been trying for four years. This year i decided to say screw it and ordered myself the works online as a gift for Mother's Day. It doesn't replace the part of me that is missing because i don't have a child, but i feel like i deserve to celebrate all of the love and thought i put in to my child. I'm so dedicated to a child that isn't here with me. So i deserve to celebrate.

I don't mean to offend you if you don't agree. I don't want to take celebration off of the mothers who do "motherly" things daily. But you are a mother. And your time as a mother and your child's short and sweet life should be celebrated this year.

Answer

I celebrated International Bereaved Mothers Day yesterday.  It was a day to remember my sweet little one in heaven 💜
