My counselor had me to write My baby a letter. This was very difficult but healing for me. She also told me to grieve the loss. For several days I did nothing buy cry and feel very sad. I didn't eat or sleep much. I had never really allowed myself you feel all the pain and saddness. I journaled about how I felt and got it all out. It is a grieving process. When someone we love dies we go through the steps and heal, I never did that. I am finding that I can forgive myself.

My counselor also told me if that child had lived, my life today would be very different. I am not sure how I feel about this. I love my life and would never want to give any of it up. I know things happen for a reason, it doesn't always make sense.

sounds very hard to be able to wright something like that I think it might take time for me to get there.

But Iam going to give it a shot - I have really grieved either i try to not think of it as a child but a 3 cm little mistake - know ITS HARSH AND UNFEELING OF ME BUT i CANT cope with it otherwise might in a couple of years when i grow up a bit and reasses myself

It is hard and for me I had just blocked out all the memories so it took some time to remember all the details. I had never allowed myself to grieve over it. I do feel much better about it.I think it really helped me. I gave myself a few days to mourn and do nothing else. It still hurts, it always will but now I can talk about it and not fall apart. forgiving myself was the hardest part but I think I'm finally there.

I think your wise in waiting until your ready. If you ever plan on having children you will want to deal with it before because it will mess with you. My first pregnancy I was so afraid something was going to go wrong.
