My mom passed away a month ago from stage 4 cancer and I’m 5 months pregnant. She was both mother and father to me because she was a single parent. She was my best friend. Most days are hard and I miss her so much! I hate that she won’t get to meet her first grandchild. I can empathize with you, especially being on this app and seeing all the support most women still have. I can’t help but feel really resentful. Like time and moments were stolen from my mom and child. I’m also experiencing the grief and worry that my baby can feel it. I’m available to message if you ever need to talk or vent.
Hi, I can relate. I lost my mum last year when my youngest child was 2 months old. Even now, 15 months later I am still struggling. The only advice I can give it to take each day as it comes. Celebrate your better days & be kind & to yourself on the bad. Trying to deal with grief & the settling of hormones after having a baby are hard enough on there but together it’s even harder. Be gentle on yourself x
My loss was no where near as recent as yours but I know exactly how your feeling being a new mom without that support. If you’d like someone to talk to you can message me and I’ll be happy to listen.
