My mother had a miscarriage about a year before I was born. If she had carried that baby to term I never would have been

My sister had two miscarriages before she had my godson, I love everything about that kid to death but I'm still saddened by the others

"The baby has a strong heartbeat," the ultrasound tech told me. I saw it myself, beating on the screen. It passed from my body the next day.

My mother lost a pair of twins when I was 5(they were a conjoined still birth) I miss them even though I never got to meet them.

I could be dedicated specifically to one woman, I have no idea just throwing it out there.

They were talking about how the post used the plural form "women" As opposed to the singular "woman"
thatgeekgirl
That bothered me soooo much
treefeather
so many people do that and it always bothers me.

Wife and I have been through two. It is rough for me, but gotta be strong for wifey. Can't imagine that pain
ToXiCuR3
Stay awesome, she needs you :)
ogmandapanda
I've never posted before. But I am a month out from my first miscarriage. I guess I just like knowing I'm not alone.
Anpatton
I had a miscarriage two years ago. It still hurts, but please feel free to message me if you need to talk.
That goes for anyone dealing with this. It is not something you should deal with alone, but no one feels comfortable talking about it.
Thank you. I was just past the halfway point and I thought I was in the clear. It feels like the air has left the room.
rainmakerab
That's awesome, but seriously is there a guy version?
mediaboy911
This statue wasn't made about miscarriages, it was made about abortion. The child is offering forgiveness. Check google.
PaleChixAreMyFetish
They should make another statue showing a poor mother that can't support the kids she never meant to have, and all the down stream affects.
Cammaster
Judging by /a/XQoUa I think it might be "effect"
Or maybe one about people being charitable to the poor. Helping families in need.
Carefuler
Or a statue of a kid having a great life living with a loving family that adopted her.
MommyOser16
i connect with this! I love my son but my heart still aches for my first baby i lost
AngryGroundhog
About 1 in 4 women, tragically. I can't wait until Republicans outlaw miscarriages & hold God accountable for his crimes against the unborn.
As childless mother, this terrifies me. In some states, a miscarriage can actually be prosecuted as "feticide". Its scary :c
HeroOfKvatch1
That is just sick, do those dumbass lawmakers not know the difference between a miscarriage and an abortion?
mrjrmy
I know this pain well for the wound is still fresh. I put on a strong face for my wife and try to help her through this difficult time.
She's understandably distant and emotional. So much so that my greatest fear is not only having lost my daughter but my wife as well.
BBB90
She'll come back to you. You just need to give her time and lots of love. Let her know it's okay to grieve for as long as necessary.
ImgurianSlacker
You don't have to be super strong. My husband didn't want to talk about our loss, but it happened, I was there. For me, it helped to talk
Appreciate the kindness. It's taking her some more time. She hasn't said anything after she learned what happened. :/
PM me if you need someone to talk to
itsybitsyspider
Please, both of you get into grief therapy to help both of you through this.
Yeah. She just needs a little more time.
I'm supposed to be 28 weeks. I lost him at 10. I thought I was getting better. Saw a therapist for the first time. I was wrong. Seek help <3
It will still be rough. It's ok to cry. We lost our middle one at 10wks. PM me if you would like someone to talk to
We're actually pretty far along. Car accident changed some things.
I wish you well on your road to recovery. I know it will not be short or easy. <3
sometimesithinkimfunny
My wife and I still talk about how old our kids would be now. It's a weird feeling to miss someone you've never met. A painful longing.
BurtTurglar
I cant imagine& my heart hurts thinkin about ur pain Theyll always be perfect in ur dreams of what couldve been I hope u find peace in that
sunnydelinquent
As a father of 3 I couldn't imagine that pain nor do I ever want to.
Werewolfoflondon
My 4-year-old daughter mentioned her "missing older brother" several times for a year. We never even talked about him after she was born.
PoliteIrishGuy
You okay?
Zootsoot
Yes.
kikapewpewpew
My wife and I would've had one due last month.
VLeebattin0107
This... Mine would have been 3 next month
EighthGradeAIMScreenname
My mom and I talk about the siblings that would have been before me quite a bit. She's so thankful for my brother and me it's humbling.
EverythingIsBeautifulAndNothingHurts
My son would have been 12 this year. He was a late term loss, I have thought about him every single day since. Still aches. ????
DerMahGawd
My wife and I do it all the time. Weirdest feeling.
Next month will be 3 years since our miscarriage. Still think about it all the time
It is a strange feeling and one I'm not sure I will or ever want to shake
AchilleonV
My first daughter was almost 3m when she passed. I will always think of her and what she would be like as she grew.
Talking about them helps me feel like they're still part of my life. I don't want to lose that.
therealafurt
Sometimes i think you're sad
HiddenSpoon
This may seem mean but I honestly don't get that. It's a miscarriage it's normal and occurs often why do people get so hung up on it.
Buffalowingman
You don't have kids or ever been pregnant. 140 characters is not enough to convey the emotion that transition involves
SpiderMcGlurk
I see your getting down voted pretty hard. From our perspective we were just like 'ok that didn't work out, let's go again'.
To some degree I think my wife was comforted by how often it happens.
That's my point pretty much I feel like if people knew it was a extremely common thing they wouldn't be so destroyed or feel so bad about it
Yeah,no, I know what your saying ... I'm just not sure why you're being down voted mate.
Cac2008
Cancer may be normal, but still tragic. Particularly for a woman, feeling a young life move then be silent stays with you for life.
FutureHermit
Big difference between miscarriage at 18 weeks, when you've already felt the baby move, and at 10 weeks with a blighted ovum like mine.
typecbubbling
It's okay. My girlfriend and I had a miscarriage and I didn't feel too bent out of shape about it. Oh well.
FreckleFoxx
I think some people just feel more connected to the child in the womb than others.
Hopefully you'll never have to fully understand how it feels. I honestly hope you can stay ignorant. Just try to be more empathetic IRL.
But like I have had cousins get bent out of shape on this and I was there for them and everything but I just don't get the emotional stuff.
DuncanSeven
Found the sociopath!
ReactAndiSueYou
I think it's Psychopath, Sociopath is someone who is extremely Anti-Social. Hell all I know is that I'm the Psychopath.
It's been around but working in the medical profession I guess jaded me because to me I see it as a late period, try again next week. 1
Its painful because a baby died inside you. Just cause it was small doesnt mean it wasnt a life, just cause its common doesnt mean less pain
Also it might be common to a proffesional. To the mother it was her child.
checksandbalancesplease
I saw this same pic with a title about abortion... Get your stories straight, people!
MooningBuns
The correct medical terminology for a miscarriage is a spontaneous abortion, which is pretty fucked up, imo.
LivingInYourIntestines
very technically any foetus expelled before the age of viability is an abortion.
caiuscassius
Why not just call them what they are. That's a person. A living person. There's no difference between a fetus and baby except development
Because whether you think they're alive or not, MY concern as a doctor is if they're still in the uterus or not. And how many pt to treat ;)
Theman098
I'd imagine this one is correct, unless the artist is a manipulative scumbag.
IhaveAdogAndAnxiety
Can't miss your baby if you didn't want it!
More or less, yea.
wofulunicycle
Nope. The sculptor said it was about abortion.
Well, then he's a manipulative scumbag.
Try letting people have their beliefs. Some people believe life begins at conception. Some don't. Like many, I've good friends on both sides
I'm not belittling him for his beliefs. I'm belittling him for making art that dehumanizes people who don't agree with him.
