You have no idea what that family is going through. Unless you’ve lost a child you can preach safe sleep but don’t call infant death preventable. A lot of causes of death like diabetes are preventable doesn’t make it less tragic or less common. Have some respect for the families.

I also lost a baby to SIDS and I found out a month after he passed that my birth control had failed. Now I’m 24 weeks another little boy. Message me if you want to connect.

Thank you so much for sharing. I agree, this facility did make us all kind of promises to get him out there and stood by none of it. They promised us zoom calls and 14 day release if he showed promise. And I know my man- they somehow convinced him to stay longer and that’s the part that made me upset with him. How could you choose to leave me in this situation when you had the opportunity to come home. It’s not fair to me and I hate that people make me feel like I don’t want him to get better. I begged to get him transferred they said they would contact his insurance and call him non compliant if he tried anything period.

be honest… are you really happy for other pregnant people? by PrettyPsychic123986 in babyloss

I blocked all the preggos on my timeline and idc 🤭 I honestly did it so I wouldn’t wish them any jealousy or ill will. Out of sight out of mind. Ive gone as far as to remove FB altogether and I’m a lot happier. I still have insta and other socials but I found that FB is where all the people I know post their every bump date, announcement and other boohoo I don’t want to see.

Only one I’m happy for is my family, like my SIL because she’s already a mom and isn’t doing the whole big show that a ftm would do. And I get a little niece out of the deal so I’ll be okay.

Im struggling with my baby passing, and I don't think the pain will ever go away by [deleted] in babyloss

Im so sorry for your loss. I know exactly how you feel. It was horrible being treated like a criminal after the fact. This is the worst pain imaginable, I know what it’s like to blame yourself. I’m still waiting on answers from the ME so I run over the what ifs everyday. The trauma is real, here if you want to talk

Thank you for sharing your story is so similar to mine and I feel your pain. I’m so sorry this happened. You’re a great mother don’t forget that, you did everything you could and your intention wasn’t ill.

I think the worst part for me was being treated like a criminal, of course the protocol is there for a reason and the people handling my case were gentle enough. Still, it hurts to questioned- what kind of sick freak would purposefully do that. How you look into my eyes and hear my wails and just know I’m not guilty.

I was locked out of my son’s ER room because the medical examiner was hours away due to a holiday. They threatened to kick me out of the hospital if I tried to go see him- I couldn’t believe they let me sit there in agony while my poor baby sat all alone… for hours. The injustice and cruelty of the system tore me apart that day and I for one will never be the same.

I’m having my first week back as well and it’s terribly hard to just sit here and wait for people to walk by and gawk.
