Hey, thought I would chime in as well since you mentioned liking to interact with other people who've been through similar situations. I have had a miscarriage (08) and I lost my 5 year old daughter in 2011. I found out I was pregnant 3 days after her funeral. I now have two boys - one is 3.5 and the other is just about to turn 1. The part I'm struggling with right now has been going back to having toddlers and babies only. I've been a Mom since 2005, but my oldest living child is 3 and half. I miss her so much, but feel like I have to always have a brave front or people will start to be worried about me or I'll be talked about behind my back (live in a small town). I agree, it's definitely not one of those things where you want others to be able to relate to you, but at the same time it's comforting to talk to someone who does know.
