Was it a boy or girl or did you know? It’s difficult and you need to grieve as you have lost a child. My first baby died within 12 hours of birth. You are not alone. I believe your baby is now in heaven and will become complete. You can see him or her some day. Your body is going through changes now emotionally and physically. It’s important that you take care of yourself. Set up an exercise program and have your son get involved. Think of things you can do together. It’s hard to be positive when your body is screaming pain but count your blessings.

Hi, @jo54 - I have never personally lost a baby, but I can only imagine the pain and heartache it would cause, whether it was a miscarriage or a baby who died after birth. It would be tragic.
I'd also like to invite @sandytoes14 @karihammel @liyana @phoenixzip @lupusjourney @moables011 @peggyella @java_mom @roxy1992 @artscaping @vthatch @amh9999 into this conversation on coping with miscarriage, as you've mentioned on Connect the loss of a baby, through miscarriage or otherwise, or that someone close to you had this experience. You are under no obligation to share, but hoping you might have some thoughts on ways to cope.
@jo54 - you mentioned exercise as a help in a time of loss of a baby. Any other ideas on how to make it through when you've had a miscarriage or early loss of a baby?
