Of course, I haven't the words for such loss but you have strung together words here, so painful and beautiful, that you have shown a glimmer into your crushing loss. I am helpless to do anything other than offer you a virtual hug.Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07022434817723918622noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-972647577919000054.post-19944601635472059432009-11-27T04:02:32.667-08:002009-11-27T04:02:32.667-08:00Am so sorry to hear that you lost your baby, I hop...Am so sorry to hear that you lost your baby, I hope that you are surrounded my love as you grieve. Wishing you strength of spirit this December and in the time ahead. She/he will be with you always, if not in body then spirit. I am a believer that things come back around and when it comes to something like this perhaps this little being is nearer than you think, a bird at your window, I do think they cut back through the stars and try and touch you in some way or other. I hope somehow there can be peace. <br /> Your poem is very beautiful and moving.Juniperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16779192722462442800noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-972647577919000054.post-29327289093669825442009-11-26T21:21:47.158-08:002009-11-26T21:21:47.158-08:00I didn't know it could be said that exactly. ...I didn't know it could be said that exactly.

I ache for you about this. I can...Dear Maggie,<br /><br />I ache for you about this. I can't even imagine how this must feel. <br /><br />I'm to to risk sharing something with you... It might sound trite if face of your struggle with grieving your baby, but then again, it might be of some comfort. That is my hope.<br /><br />I have heard of an eastern philosopy that helps me to cope with child tradedy, and it goes something like this. According to this philosophy, there are some souls that when they are incarnated, they only need to touch down into the physical ever so briefly to get whatever "knowledge" they need to carry them on to whatever is next. Supposedly these are very advanced souls. Their journey here is meant to be brief and then they go on to the higher <br />realm(s). I don't know. It helps me to find solice in things I can't understand or accept.<br /><br />Sending love and healing,<br />xo pfPetit fleurhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02626110471501778855noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-972647577919000054.post-89528431185564679222009-11-26T15:39:23.642-08:002009-11-26T15:39:23.642-08:00I've never had a miscarriage.

I wanted to name it, think in "he" or "she" instead of "it". And I needed to SEE the baby, but I missed that opportunity as well.<br /><br />I just went through my due date month -- October. No, it wasn't easy, especially with friends having babies left and right. It will be hard, but you'll get through it.<br /><br />There will always be a hole, an ache, I'm sure. And I know that truly no words can make the situation better or make you feel better. So I just send hugs. Lots of love. And empathy. With more love.Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12988159165304377985noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-972647577919000054.post-64248502833683965052009-11-25T10:44:09.274-08:002009-11-25T10:44:09.274-08:00I haven't been that deeply moved by poetry in ...I haven't been that deeply moved by poetry in a long time.David Cranmerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04749857752139212888noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-972647577919000054.post-21985880239404928962009-11-25T09:44:46.169-08:002009-11-25T09:44:46.169-08:00Maggie,

There is nothing about the way you experience something like this that can be said to be selfish.

I wonder what that desire/guilt is? What is it? Why? I don't know. You've written about your loss with such depth and such truth, and it mirrors how strange and confusing, bewildering it all is.

Not from a shocking point of view, but from a medical point of view. From a completely 'I'm extremely curious' point of view. I miscarried when I was only about 10 weeks along and 'nature took its course'. I remember being so interested in the thick blood that passed during this period....moving it around on the toilet paper, wanting to see something. I never saw anything but blood.<br /><br />Sometimes, I wish we could have gone just a little longer so I could have held the baby...even if it would have only been in the palm of my hand. I wanted to see this baby. That's the only part I'm sad about....that I never saw the baby. Didn't even make it far enough along to make it to the OB for the first visit. It was never real to me.Rebeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07930274958410589309noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-972647577919000054.post-76708652005487659352009-11-24T13:12:51.950-08:002009-11-24T13:12:51.950-08:00oh the ache. a wound that never heals.
