I think I responded to someone with a similar line when they asked how I was doing.<br /><br />Go to Yelp! for a cheap burrito, much safer. ;-)Shanti Mamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13659456047704596334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8013443217504323406.post-37930513027260491552009-07-09T11:40:44.987-04:002009-07-09T11:40:44.987-04:00"But babyloss blogs are not handbooks on how ..."But babyloss blogs are not handbooks on how babies can die, but handbooks on how we women survive, on how we grieve, on how we comfort, on how we become more compassionate, on how we love each other."<br /><br /><br />So profound, really. I am not sure I would be as "ok" as I feel somedays without this community where there are no looks of horror and sadness. <br /><br />And now, I want to do Yoga again. Thanks for that :)<br /><br />xoG$https://www.blogger.com/profile/05010373805685335151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8013443217504323406.post-9123999609312371172009-07-09T10:11:25.259-04:002009-07-09T10:11:25.259-04:00Beautiful, Angie...

It is so hard that what would have once been a cute and quirky story, one to re-tell, now just makes me feel sad. Not jealous (well maybe a little), not angry, just sad. I think that "and we're all fucked up now" sums up completely how I feel about this experience somedays.<br /><br />I'm glad that you are writing your survival book. It has helped me more than I can say. The Haka is an apt description. xxCatherine Whttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01618295389400457254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8013443217504323406.post-85444405263110213752009-07-09T05:32:19.011-04:002009-07-09T05:32:19.011-04:00Great post Angie.

And don't apologize for how you feel and what you do.<br /><br />I actually rolled my eyes at a couple of "He is here!" and "I am pregnanct!" announcements on a parenting list I belong to, and it's a list I really like. I guess I am just jealous these people can remain innocent and not know of the horror.<br /><br />Love to you, sweet powerful one.janishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14326099151319592743noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8013443217504323406.post-39319635779527840612009-07-09T04:43:26.022-04:002009-07-09T04:43:26.022-04:00i so need these chronicles of life after and beyon...i so need these chronicles of life after and beyond, the unabashed weeping and the war dances alike.<br /><br />you make me want to limber up my tongue and legs and see what i can manage.melkahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16284350862682460799noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8013443217504323406.post-20720797127364936102009-07-09T04:03:26.002-04:002009-07-09T04:03:26.002-04:00'babyloss blogs are not handbooks on how babie...'babyloss blogs are not handbooks on how babies can die, but handbooks on how we women survive'<br /><br />This is perfect.

Not that I'm a Kiwi myself, but they are just a hop skip and a jump across from us.<br />And I too would have deleted myself from that group. I had to tell about three people today my first child was stillborn at 40+ weeks and I'm so tired of the silence and looks of horror. Then having to explain that no, in fact there was nothing wrong with her. Only that I was pregnant too long.<br />I'm so very changed, but I am learning to love the new me again and learning not to care when people point out they don't like parts of the new Sally. This is it. This the me I'm left with to somehow move forward.Hope's Mamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04984543289642681339noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8013443217504323406.post-54334804397026682412009-07-09T01:22:38.048-04:002009-07-09T01:22:38.048-04:00PS - and a little less able to spell... xxxPS - and a little less able to spell... xxxRachaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08573991998853561283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8013443217504323406.post-42887949251093593892009-07-09T01:21:45.299-04:002009-07-09T01:21:45.299-04:00I would have deleated my details from that group t...I would have deleated my details from that group too.<br /><br />And yes, we have changed.
