    Hello I'm new here. I've never talked to anyone really about my loss. I mean everyone knows I lost my first child 8 years ago but I've never talked to anyone because I didn't know I could do it with anyone that has gone thru the same thing. But I heard the online support groups were a good way of coping. So I'm kinda willing to try anything right now.

    Hi CJ, we're glad you're here. It can be so hard to talk about our losses, even with our closest family and friends. This site was created for exactly that reason - to connect with people who have had a similar loss and who have a better understanding of what you are going through. I hope here you can find the support and comfort you need.

    Thank you. And you're very right. Talking about him helps but it's hard to talk to someone that doesn't completely understand the loss.

    You are completely right. It is very difficult to talk to somebody that doesn't understand. That's the reason I never looked into councling for it. I wouldn't be able to be nice to someone that said they understood when then dont.

    I am so very sorry for your loss. How old was he if you don't mind me asking. In my personal experience talking about the good times that you had helps alot. And if you have anymore children spend time with them helps out alot too.

    I'm sorry for your loss. I personally have never had a miscarriage. I couldn't imagine that loss. I watched my sisters go through that. All you can do is try to stay positive and cherish every second you had with that baby. And cherish the children you have or will have when you have them.

    I am so glad I'm not the only one that feels like that. For the last 8 yrs my mother has tried to get me to go to counseling and I won't because ik for a fact I won't be able to be nice to someone if they said they knew how I felt and they had never experienced it
