Maybe this was answered in past AMA’s but how did you manage healing after the loss?
We lost a baby due to Holoprosencephaly but the hospital pressured us into aborting the pregnancy at 20 weeks. To this day we wonder if we made the right choice, our therapist says everyone in this situation wonders if the grass is greener.
But I felt like a part of me died that day and it was unspeakably painful to try and function plus go to work etc. It didn’t feel like anyone understood at the time.
Do you still honour her birthday every day? We try and do that each year. My wife even did some image trickery to see how he’d look like if he had survived:(
It doesn’t hurt as much it used to, I couldn’t look at the pictures for years.
