I found out on Wednesday that I’ve had a miscarriage. D (my husband) and I are obviously very upset - it’s come as a major shock as there were no signs that there was anything wrong.
Please feel free to leave messages on this post, but I’d be really grateful if you keep it to this post only.
I plan not to post any pictures this weekend. I do have some pictures ready, so I’ll set them up to post daily from Monday but with no comment. If I run out or can’t cope I’ll ask Cassandra to take over for a short while.
Thank you all.

Bummer! So sorry to hear this. I hope it will work better next time.
Very sorry indeed and many hugs, B.
We’re all here and we all love you dearly. Take as long as you need.
I wish the best of health and recovery for you both, but especially you my dear!
You are in my thoughts and prayers. Take care of each other.
So very sorry for your loss - sending big hugs from Nottingham xxx

Very sad to hear of your loss. xx
Beth, don’t worry about posting pictures. I’m sure we can manage while you and your husband deal with what’s happened. Anything I can say would be trite so I won’t bother other than to offer all my sympathies to you both and wish you well. *HUG*
B, I am saddened by your loss. Take all the time you need to recover. I agree with Mosh, forget this place for awhile - it’s trivial… and remember, you have many people who care for you here, all our thoughts are with you.
Mike

Sending my thoughts.

So sorry, Beth, to hear what happened. I went through it long time ago but I still feel sad when I think about it. I’ve got two children now so please don’t despair. Big hugs. Ciao. A.
Thank you all so much. We’re so overwhelmed by all the love and support we have been offered, by strangers as well as friends and family. It’s amazing to know how much people care. thank you all xxx
I’d like to hold you close, it’s the least I can say. You’ll get over this and gain strength from it, you’ll mend and go on.
I’ve smiled lots looking at you photos over the last year, thanks so much
Oh Beth,
I have just come back from Kilsyth and am catching up.
Life does throw some curves and sometimes a large brick, but you will both come through this trying time, stronger and still full of love.
Its no consolation but sometimes a miscarriage is natures way of protecting you.
Your heart has many rooms and that part of your life is placed in one room and you open another. You will visit that room less as time goes on.
Thank you Stephanie.
Thanks Mrs K… that’s a lovely way of putting it. The room will always be there, but yes, with time I’ll visit less.
I wish I had the strength to thank each one of you individually, but do please know that I draw strength from every single comment. Thank you all so much.
Belatedly, to stand in solidarity with you.
You share with us many joys in your photos, and teach us how to look for the beauty in Newcastle. Thank you for sharing your sorrow with us too.
Kindness is too little spoken of. May you continue to receive much kindness.
I’m so sorry to learn of your loss. I’d happened on your blog some time ago and enjoyed that you seemed to appreciate so many of the same things around Tyneside that I do. I’ve never miscarried a child, so I can’t say I know how you feel, other than I know it’s very painful. I never wanted a child until I was 30 and then I wanted one a lot. That cost me a husband who did not then want a child and several difficult years of infertility treatment. When my Mom died and I was at the point of needing a mortgage to continue treatment (I was in the US then), I decided to just accept being childless. I do understand giving up a dream and having to find something else. Which is different to your loss. I don’t know you, but I hope good things for you.
I am so sorry for your loss. I realise that some time has now passed but while those around you forget and move on, no doubt every pram, every pregnant women, still hurts like hell. thinking of you x
