I’m sorry you had to go through this. I’ve never been pregnant, it terrifies me in many ways and I cannot begin to imagine what it felt like. I think it’s normal to think about it, it is a traumatic event. Have you ever seek help with a therapist? It could be good to talk about your thoughts and feeling to someone neutral who could help you finding strategies to heal and feel better.

Best wishes

It is entirely natural. I still think about the baby I lost back in 1988, what would she be doing, would she be married, would I be a grandmother. I try to limit the time I think about her, when the thoughts come into my head, to just a few moments and also try to make them positive ones but I appreciate that I have also had 31 years to move on. Give yourself time, it really is a healer and don't stop yourself from remembering x
