I heard all of those things you suggested not to say, and it hurt. I don't know why people who didn't experience such a loss feel the need to make suggestions.<br />I sincerely hope you will be a wonderful mommy someday!!!

I had a very early miscarraige and ended up finding a forum with 7 pages of a thread discussing and tearing apart my posts about the baby and it was just so painful and so unbelievable. But the Lord gives grace and it is nice to be reminded that it is ok to GRIEVE and that there is no right way or wrong way!<br />So yeah, not sure if that made sense but thank you for sharing from your heart!HIS daughterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12041105247518323458noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5222417448205567570.post-86772948902606369612011-10-29T16:03:27.300-07:002011-10-29T16:03:27.300-07:00I've never experienced a miscarriage so I can&...I've never experienced a miscarriage so I can't even begin to say I understand - because I just haven't been there. <br /> Thankyou for writing a "manual"! :) I wish more people would.<br /><br />I should write one on longing to conceive and having to wait... !

I totally agree with the list of what not to say... we had plenty of those and they hurt, even thought they meant well. the most comforting is a shoulder to cry on. I'm so thankful I had your encouragement while we were going through our miscarriage. You truly are a blessing to this girl! Great post...

I especially love your lists of things not to say, and things TO say. I've heard almost every one of the things on your list "NOT" to say, at least a dozen times. I can't stand it when people try to tell me that my baby would probably have been deformed. That is no comfort to a grieving mother. And to say that your baby would have probably been a bad person and now they are at least in heaven. Ugh! Again, no comfort. Since I have had 3 miscarriages, I could add one to your list of things not to say... "Well, you've done this before. It's not like it's the first baby you've lost". Oh, like it gets easier the more of your children you loose?? NO, not at all. :(Jessica https://www.blogger.com/profile/09805230550850536553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5222417448205567570.post-18547001349881078002011-10-26T17:35:37.254-07:002011-10-26T17:35:37.254-07:00This is such an awesome post.

I know it must of been really hard on my parents because it was hard on me. <br />Although I don't have anyone right now that's going through this, your advice is helpful and encouraging in knowing what to say and not say to someone going through a time like that. Thank you.<br />~Rachel <3<br />I know that someday I'll have a sibling come up to me in heaven...I'm excited. :)Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11654073344007389407noreply@blogger.com
