It's getting closer to my due date and I feel more and more like everything is falling apart. I've been trying so hard to move on and push through how horrible I feel, but nothing seems to be working. My husband lost his job last month, and now it looks like we might be moving. I feel like in a few short months my whole world has come crashing down. I had thought this was going to be the year I had my first baby, raised it in my first house, I thought life would be good. Now I have no baby, possibly no house and no plans for the future. I need something happy to happen
...sorry I just needed to rant

I'm so sorry you are having such a miserable time. :-( life can turn bad quickly and make you feel like everything is wrong. I hope that the job thing is happening because a better job is coming for your hubby. Can you do something special on your angel's EDD? A lot of us light candles or release some balloons or something else that recognises them. Do you have any support in real life? I hope you have some kind thoughtful ppl around you to help you through. (((Hugs)))

{{{{{{HUGS}}}}}} to you!! I'm so sorry for your loss, & it's OK to be having "trouble" with the due date getting closer. That can be a very tough time to get through; when the due date of my 1st m/c was approaching, my husband booked us a cruise---he knew I couldn't be at work (labor & delivery) during that time, & we were blessed to get a great deal---on the actual due date, I was able to spend some time alone, grieving my little one, & also time with my husband. There are certain days that will be hard---due dates, the date you learned of your loss, "angelversaries," the date you delivered-----everyone responds in a different way. I know lots of ladies here at SG release balloons, light candles, visit the grave site (if you have one), go on a trip, stay close to family...there are so many ways & I know that you will find one that helps your heart!! It's OK to feel very overwhelmed right now; just dealing with pregnancy loss is hard, but when job loss & the resulting loss of income & a move are added.....stay strong!! Feel free to rant as much you as want; we're here for you!! It may not seem like it right now, but mingasue is right; it DOES get better, but it takes time.....and it's OK if you seem to "lose ground." Grief isn't linear process; sometimes it's messy, but you have the support of the SG family!!

Your post brought home so many feelings of when I was younger and going through what seemed like one terrible loss after another. I can well remember just screaming out so many times, "God, when is this going to stop?"
I don't know why, but sometimes heartache and loss seem to come at us in fast knock-me-down intervals without leaving much time to catch our breath.
I can say, though, that eventually things do turn around and we make it through. I'm so glad that you're able to talk and vent and seek support. I was far too quiet and internalized way too much of my pain. If there's one thing I'd tell others, it would be to get the support of some friends when you're going through difficult times. That can make all of the difference in the world -- just knowing you have people in your corner supporting you and caring for you through the really hard times in life.
Sending special thoughts and prayers your way -- hoping that things will take a turn for the better soon.
Love, Clara
