Losing Your Mother

I lost my mother nearly two years ago. I still feel lost and alone at times, and I really miss her when I'm shopping alone or just need a close female to talk to. Now that I'm pregnant again and my son is turning 4 soon, I am sad that she is not around to see her grandchildren. She was sick for years and we lost my father (her husband) five years ago and she was just never the same afterwards, so when she passed I felt a little relieved because she was no longer in pain and I was no longer burdened with taking care of her. I had a lot of mixed emotions.

I am so sorry for your loss! I haven't experienced a loss of a parent and i cant imagine the pain your experiencing, let alone these feelings you are having of loneliness! We are hear if you need to talk or vent or need a sense of being! So sorry! ((HUGS))

I lost my mom three years ago to sepsis. I watched her die for a few months before she did. It is a very sad time. I got pregnant with number 6 almost one year after she was gone. I went into a depression during the pregnancy I didn't care about anything. I finally got better after I found out the sex. Than delivery day. I bawled after my son was born cause my mom was always in the delivery room and it was hard for me that she wasn't there.


I got pregnant again found out I was pregnant the day after Christmas last year. Everything was going great until I had the 20 week scan. We found out our baby had no fluid and no kidneys and no bladder. So we did a labor and delivery at 22 weeks and 5 days. I feel like my mom wanted him. And I totally believe he is with her. And seven weeks after I found out I am pregnant with my healthy little girl.

So I am sorry you are here. I know how you feel. I am so sorry for your loss.

I'm so sorry for your lose i did exp a lose but i kno how u feel{{HUGS}}

I lost my dad this summer. It was a HUGE shock. He had a relatively minor stroke and ending up getting sicker & sicker until he died 10 days later.

I am really struggling now that it's Christmas time. I keep thinking "Oh, I should get *this* for him for Christmas." Or wanting to call & tell him something my son did. They were so close, that makes it harder.

So short answer, no, I haven't lost my Mom. But I lost my Dad & I do feel lost & alone.

I'm so sorry for your loss. I havent lost my mother, but my grandmother passed away a little over 3 weeks ago. I was closer to her than I am to my own mother. She was supposed to stay with me for a few weeks when I had my baby. I had everything prepared for her arrival but she got very sick out of the blue with sepsis and died 4 days later- a day after I was supposed to pick her up from the train station. My son was born 3 days later. He will be 3 weeks old tomorrow and it is very bitter sweet for me. I have had to stop myself a few times while dialing her number to talk to her. I had to do it again last night. It hurts a lot. People say time heals all wounds, however, I am having a hard time accepting this. There is not a minute of the day that goes by that I don't think about her.

I know this is an old post, but I wanted to reply as well.
I actually lost my mother when I was 7 years old, the years have been very hard- but I try to get by everyday.She was 32 and I am now 33, It is hard knowing that she wouldn't be at my graduation,my wedding or even see her first grandchild, she was also 9 months pregnant with my brother which made it two times worse. I have my days, but I get better.. I actually was able to make a trip to Tennessee and visit her grave, which I haven't been able to do for many years... It does feel better to talk out your feelings..

I am sorry for everyone else's loss, losing a mother is a very tough thing to go through.

I lost my momther on May 2nd of this year. It happened very suddenly at her home, and the cause is still unknown. She was a seemingly healthy 44 year old woman, we are all still in disbelief. My 12 year old sister was the one who found our mom lying on the bathroom floor. I can still hear her dear little voice on the phone "Im all alone!!! Mom isnt here anymore!!" It breaks my heart. She and I were so close, she was young when she had me and I was only child for a long time. We were more like sisters, and I really helped her and my stepfather raise my little sister who is ten years younger than me. I too feel lost, and alone despite all of the family I have who are going through the same grief as I am. I just miss her. evryday is a little easier though. Each day brings more hope for the future-a future without Mom.
