I'm sorry for your lost. The best thing you could do is not isolate yourself. Try and push yourself to be around with the people and family that love and care for you. Their love and support could help you get back on your feet. I don't know if your religious in anyway but if you are you could try a prayer and reach out to God. In time He'll take the pain away also He could help you get on your feet. You could try this prayer on depression: "The eyes of the Lord are on me, and His ears are open to my cry...When I cry out, the Lord hears, and delivers me out of all my troubles. (Psalm 34:15,17) or this prayer on comfort: "Our Lord Jesus Christ Himself and God our Father, Who loved us and gave us everlasting consolation and encouragement and well founded hope through [His] grace (unmerited favor), comforts and encouraged my heart and strengthens me [makes me steadfast and keeps me unswerving] in every good work and word." 2 Thessalonians 2:16-17


I hope this helps. You could also try health escapes like being in the out doors, not being closed in, this will help push you to move on and become happier in time.

I am sorry for your loss. You will heal in time. Try to surround yourself around people who will help keep your spirits up. Do not isolate yourself. Find out if there are support groups with people who are going through the same thing. If not, you should start one on-line. In the meantime, try and seek therapy, you may be suffering with depression. You are young, you will recover. Go back to work, find out if you could get your job back. Sitting around will only make you feel worse. When the time is right, mother nature will bless you with a beautiful family!! God bless you!

I was also 21 when I lost my first child. She was born with a rare birth defect and died about 8 weeks after birth. This is not an easy thing to get over, you will never forget it and a day will not pass that you don't think of that little baby. Time does help. Anything that people say will not make it better. I still cry and that was 31 years ago. Having other children did help but I never forgot about my little girl named Kimberly. I lost two others and the two I have almost died. Then I adopted the daughter from hell. My true feeling is that you will learn to cope with this and you may need help getting through this. I will be here for you if you need to talk, that helps alot. Get involved in something you feel good about. Confusion and pain is normal, plus your body is going through changes as well. Do what you can to make something positive come out of this. Unfortunately I know it was meant to be for me because I didn't' want her to suffer and life of knowing pain or what was going on to her body. It when people't help when people say it's meant to be. Just know there are many of us out here who have gone through the same thing. The older they get the closer the tie becomes. I have almost lost the two boys I have now and they are grown. Please let us know if you need anything. NC is a great state but if you were are can be happier in NYC go, but you will always feel a small part of emptiness. I know this may not sound reassuring, but it takes a long time to get over death and you have to go through the normal grieving processes. Be patient my dear. If you are a believer, know you will see that baby again and he/she will always be a part of you. So talk to her/he and reassure them they are better off than we are who are left in this world to suffer. Just know you would not't want a child who was going to be institutionalized and/or in and out of hospital constantly. Especially if you plan to have more. If you need to talk it out, do, cry everyday, if it helps. The bond you had will always be there. Know they are still in your heart and you are in theirs. God Bless you and I Will think of you everyday. I just wish someone had been there for me. You can also help others that go through this as well. Make something positive and you will feel better soon.

It is very comforting to see that we all care for each other.

I am sorry to hear you ahve to go through such a desperate situation. Here si some information that has helped friends that have had to go through that:

Miscarriage and Stillbirth—Mothers Grieve





Though she already had other children, Monna was eagerly looking forward to the birth of her next child. Even before the birth, it was a baby she "played with, talked to, and dreamed of."

The bonding process between mother and unborn child was powerful. She continues: "Rachel Anne was a baby who kicked books off my belly, kept me awake at night. I can still remember the first little kicks, like gentle, loving nudges. Every time she moved, I was filled with such a love. I knew her so well that I knew when she was in pain, when she was sick."

Monna continues her account: "The doctor wouldn't believe me until it was too late. He told me to stop worrying. I believe I felt her die. She just suddenly turned over violently. The next day she was dead."

Monna's experience is no isolated event. According to authors Friedman and Gradstein, in their book Surviving Pregnancy Loss, about one million women a year in the United States alone suffer an unsuccessful pregnancy. Of course, the figure worldwide is much greater.

People often fail to realize that a miscarriage or a stillbirth is a tragedy for a woman and one she remembers—perhaps all her life. For example, Veronica, now up in years, recalls her miscarriages and especially remembers the stillborn baby that was alive into the ninth month and was born weighing 13 pounds [6 kg]. She carried it dead inside her for the last two weeks. She said: "To give birth to a dead baby is a terrible thing for a mother."

The reactions of these frustrated mothers is not always understood, even by other women. A woman who lost her child by miscarriage wrote: "What I have learned in a most painful way was that before this happened to me, I really had no idea of what my friends had to bear. I had been as insensitive and ignorant toward them as I now feel people are to me."

Another problem for the grieving mother is the impression that her husband may not feel the loss as she does. One wife expressed it this way: "I was totally disappointed in my husband at the time. As far as he was concerned, there really was no pregnancy. He could not experience the grief that I was going through. He was very sympathetic to my fears but not to my grief."

This reaction is perhaps natural for a husband—he does not undergo the same physical and emotional bonding that his pregnant wife does. Nevertheless, he suffers a loss. And it is vital that husband and wife realize that they are suffering together, although in different ways. They should share their grief. If the husband hides it, his wife may think he is insensitive. So share your tears, thoughts, and embraces. Show you need each other as never before. Yes, husbands, show your empathy.

It appears that you have a lot of things on your plate right now. Trying to move on after the loss of an unborn child is a major challenge for most people. I hope that you have sought help from others because it's never easy to go it alone. Seek out those agencies or church groups as well as grief support groups in your community. The solution is not just to try to change locations as you did by going to North Carolina. In order to move forward and get your life back together you will need help. Where are the people in your life that truly care about you? You need to be around people who are willing to give you the support you need without blame. Where are there job opportunities to quickly put you back on track with your life. All of these are important factors in helping you decide if you will stay or return to NYC. As hard as it may seem know you need to look at these difficult times as learning experiences that will make you a stronger person who in the future will be able to tackle anything that comes your way. As hard as it will be you need to spend part of your day putting a plan in place for your future. It doesn't mean that you don't grieve but you don't allow grief to over take your life. You have a future and you are the only one that can put the train back on track. Let tomorrow be a new day in your life.
