Do you find it way harder?

on mothers day when you suffered a loss? It is really hard for me on dates like death dates and birthdates but this year was hard on mothers day. anyone else feel this way?

I cried this morning for awhile when I put on the necklace Jas gave me when I lost my baby. It's strange because Mother's day really isn't that big of a deal to me-My kids like doing things for me and of course that makes it special, but they make me feel special every day of the year. So I hadn't expected to get emotional about my baby, but for some reason I did.

Lots of for you Shelly.

thats how i feel thats why today it took me for a loop!

I'm sorry it was hard for you, Shelly. I hope today is better for you. I cried too yesterday... a couple of times. Once with my mom even. I am glad she supports me such as she does and comforts me when I need it.

It was harder than I expected for me too. I cried a little bit, but I was just kinda sad all day long.

I was on the verge of breaking down most of the day, that all changed after I read your post this morning I was happy to spend the day with my children, but I STILL think about my loss. I guess it didn’t help that my DH did not even acknowledge that it was Mother’s Day, nor did he get me anything . But I’ll be sure and return the favor on Father’s Day.

I havent lost a child. But however I lost my mother 8 years ago. And I find it hard on mothers day and the day she died and her b-day. I dont know how yall feel as I have not lost a child but mothers day is a lil hard for me because of those reasons.

I was definately a rough day for me!! I just wanted to stay home and cry my eyes out, but unfortunately we had a LOT of running around to do. I found that being with my family and SO's family helped a little, but I was constantly thinking about the little one I lost. I guess it didn't help that my SO didn't even try to make it a special day!!! I wasn't expecting any gift or anything, I told him I didn't want anything, but in the back of my mind I thought he would anyway. Mother's Day isn't about gifts, I know that, but it would have been nice to at least get a card!!! :cry:Sorry, went into a little bit of a vent. I hope everyone else had a wonderful Mother's Day!!!

I haven't suffered the loss of a child thank God, but I'm sure it would be devastating for me on Mother's Day/anniversary of their death/birth, etc. Your feelings are completely normal.

Yesterday was hard for me. It always is though, Luke's birthday is 5-12, he would have been 8 last Friday. My other two made my day good though, I just spend a lot of time thinking about what could have been after they went to sleep pretty much all weekend. I also try to remember that all of our angels are looking down on us in heaven, and they want us to be happy, knowing they are with God, the very best care anyone could ask for.
I hope all you mommies had a good Mother's Day!
