Surround yourself with those who love you , because I know his support made a huge difference for me.

I still have down days about my miscarriage, which was over a year ago, and I have a 4.5 month old baby now. It's so so hard and awful. It's ok to feel crappy some days, and ok others. It just takes time for the ok/good days to outnumber the bad ones :(</p> <p>I am so sorry :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/down-day#post-1074898 Mon, 09 Sep 2013 15:37:11 +0000 Cherrybee 1074898@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh yes... just as you think you're coming out the other side, you have a down day and you realise you're not better at all. It does get easier, I promise. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/down-day#post-1074807 Mon, 09 Sep 2013 15:02:51 +0000 singingbee 1074807@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hugs, hugs, hugs. </p> <p>I still have up and down days. Everyone asks us if this is our first pregnancy and I always answer that we lost our first at 20 weeks. Talk about salting an open wound. I had a hard time last month when I saw the August 2012 moms posting 1 year old birthday parties. </p> <p>On days that I would have trouble, I would just try to find one thing that was positive or good. Just a little something, even if it was the fact that I was going to bed and the day was over. </p> <p>Hang in there! :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/down-day#post-1074702 Mon, 09 Sep 2013 14:36:19 +0000 bushelandapeck 1074702@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thinking of you and sending you lots of hugs! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/down-day#post-1074687 Mon, 09 Sep 2013 14:31:58 +0000 littleveesmommy 1074687@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Big hugs to you! And yes, there were up days and down days... today, I am having an OK day. Some days I just feel like curling up in a ball and crying, and some days I'm excited at the prospect of trying again. Two nights ago I was sobbing into my husbands arms. I would have been either 35 weeks (first m/c) or 7 weeks (second m/c)... the fact that I could have been having one any day now is something I have been having a very hard time with lately. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/down-day#post-1074521 Mon, 09 Sep 2013 13:41:10 +0000 MrsH 1074521@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Lots of hugs. I'm pregnant again and still have down days thinking that LO would be almost 9 months. It does get better. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/down-day#post-1074508 Mon, 09 Sep 2013 13:37:05 +0000 regberadaisy 1074508@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. tictactoe: (((HUGS)))! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/down-day#post-1074506 Mon, 09 Sep 2013 13:35:57 +0000 blackbird 1074506@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm sorry today is sucking so bad :( It does get better.

Then after a while you think you've gotten it flattened out, and someone will say something inconsiderate (usually without knowing it) or you will see/hear something that triggers it again. Just remind yourself that it will get better. I found having a few IRL friends to talk to helps a lot too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/down-day#post-1074365 Mon, 09 Sep 2013 12:48:57 +0000 lilteacherbee 1074365@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Big hugs!! I had many, many down days at the beginning (the first couple of months afterwards). I still have my occasional bad day and I'm 30 weeks pregnant with our rainbow baby. Last year this time, I remember counting the weeks I would have been and it was awful. I think my weeks "switched" over on Wednesdays, so those days were particularly difficult. I'm so sorry you have to go through this :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/down-day#post-1074339 Mon, 09 Sep 2013 12:38:16 +0000 LovelyPlum 1074339@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, yes, yes. I had a lot of them right after our losses, and to be honest, the down days often outnumbered the up ones. I found it way too overwhelming to think about days...instead, I think about hours. If you're having a good hour, that's enough for now.</p> <p>Sending you so many hugs. It's still hard, and I'm 9.5 weeks with baby #3. But I think about my sweet angel babies all the time. I still miss them so much it hurts sometimes. Hang in there, and reach out anytime! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/down-day#post-1074323 Mon, 09 Sep 2013 12:30:29 +0000 futuremama 1074323@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Absolutely normal. The down days become more spread out over time. I'm very sorry you have to go through this. It's awful, and unfortunately it really does take a lot of the excitement out of future pregnancies. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/down-day#post-1074312 Mon, 09 Sep 2013 12:24:28 +0000 Mrs. Jump Rope 1074312@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So many hugs. </p> <p>I'm having lots of down days. We start a cycle next month with our RE and I'm almost too scared to try. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/down-day#post-1074304 Mon, 09 Sep 2013 12:21:33 +0000 Bao 1074304@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Lots of hugs!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/down-day#post-1074298 Mon, 09 Sep 2013 12:20:42 +0000 runsyellowlites 1074298@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>BIG HUGE HUGS!!!</p> <p>I've been having down days since the dream I had a few nights. I can totally sympathize &amp; it stinks! (I'd be almost 15 weeks)</p> <p>Sorry you're having a down day too. Praying for comfort &amp; joy in the sadness for you! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/down-day#post-1074289 Mon, 09 Sep 2013 12:17:44 +0000 mrs. tictactoe 1074289@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I find that I have up days and down days lately. Today is a down day, yesterday was an up day.</p> <p>Today I feel like I'm constantly on the edge of tears. I just wish I was still pregnant and none of this ever happened. I'd be 10 weeks now, almost done with the first trimester. </p> <p>We are trying again right away, but I know pregnancy will never be the same after this. I just wish I could erase it all.</p> <p>Has anyone else experienced up days and down days like this? </p>
