I want to share my story because I want to help other mothers who have lost their children. I want them to know that they are not alone, and that there is hope for the future.

 

I am a mother of two. I lost my first child, a daughter named Emily, to stillbirth at 38 weeks gestation. It was a devastating experience, and I still struggle to come to terms with it.

I had a healthy pregnancy, and everything seemed to be going well. But then, one day, I went into labor and Emily was born stillborn. The doctors told me that there was nothing they could have done to prevent her death.

Losing Emily was the worst thing that has ever happened to me. I felt like my whole world had been turned upside down. I didn't know how I was going to go on.

But I eventually found the strength to pick myself up and move on. I had my second child, a son named James, and he is my whole world. He gives me the strength to keep going.
