I’ve been working on a memorial box for the child I miscarried about 2 months ago, and was wondering if it was too much? Like, am I dragging this on further than it needs to be? I try to feel better but it is really hard, and sometimes I find it hard to live with myself.

I don’t think you can drag this out too far. You must do what you feel you need to do to find peace. So I say yes put together this memorial. I’m sorry for you loss.

I don’t think you can ever go too far with such a loss. I’m only seventeen and never even done the business but I know if I ever miscarried a baby I would be broken inside for a long time. You should do what you feel is necessary for your grieving. Only you’ll know when it’s time to let it go and go on

I think a memorial box is a great way to help you process your grief. Losing a child is such a heavy burden. Each person grieves in their own way. If it helps you begin the process of healing, I do not think you can drag that out. I'm very sorry for your loss.

I agree with all of those who have commented. Their is no right or wrong way to grieve; it is a personal affair.

My first thought was that it is a sweet gesture. Sorry for your loss.

Do whatever helps you to heal. As long as you aren’t self medicating or hurting yourself. Healthy avenues to express your grief are encouraged. Make the memorial box.
