A poem to my friends


I wrote this cause I didn't know how else to thank you. This is dedicated to all you lot that have helped me through the past 6 weeks, you know who you are, and anyone else that has lost a baby and is trying again, I know that you feel like I do, should I try or shouldn't I so this is for yor.

The Rollacoaster

What trauma we’ve been through,
What hurt and such sadness,
The disbelief, the anger, the tears, it’s madness,
But throughout it all when I’ve felt alone
I switched on my computer it was like coming home.

See, you girls here are precious cause you’ve lived it too,
the terrible situation that I’ve just been through.
I’ve lost my baby and you’ve lost yours too,
But together we’ll make it, all of us that’s who.

We sat here and cried, our keyboards all wet,
Describing our ordeals ..ls it over yet???
And now that the physical symptoms are gone,
The heartache and emotions they still live on.

Everyday is a challenge shall I cry or be strong,
Your fine until someone wants to know what is wrong,
'I can deal with it' you say in your own stubborn way,
Well tomorrow maybe but not today.

The men in our lives, cant understand our pain
It’s not their fault all their attempts to soothe are in vain,
We’ll be ok we have friends that are ace
Here on this forum u put a smile on my face.

So now we are here, waiting to try,
All of us anxious not wanting to cry,
We want a baby so much, right away,
But we’re scared of the future every day.

And so we start, the journey again,
Peeing on sticks the fun never ends,
Imagining symptoms, are my boobs really sore?
Do I feel sick? am I eating more?
Is that mucus stretchy? I am feeling more sleepy!
Do I have PMT? or am I just much more weepy!

We’ll get our positive results on that test,
We’ll be brave and smile, we’ll look our best,
But I know you’ll feel nervous and really sick,
When you look at that big cross on the stick.

In time we’ll be here grumping and moaning,
My stretch marks are huge, my feet are so swollen!
I haven’t seen my toes for at least 3 days!
My memory has gone I’m all in a haze!
I’m nevous bout labour, I don’t like pain!
Whats it like? Would you do it again?

After, we’ll log on to chat feeling happy,
With a mug of tea and a dirty nappy,
Smiling back at the times when we were lost and upset,
So don’t fear the risks fear the regrets

WoW! How talented are you?
Wiping away tears at work, everyone thinks I must be nuts!
I think you should publish it....
Sums up everything in a nutshell

Maccy, you are very talented and I agree why don't you get it published? I am fighting back my tears at my desk!! I feel just the same, you and all the girls have been my saviours and I feel proud of us all for supporting each other through our worst nightmares.

Thank you for putting into words how much we all mean to each other

Big to everyone (feeling all emotional now!! - due AF on Sunday/Monday I think so there is my excuse )

Ah thank you, but it's hard to just write how grateful you are so thought I'd put it like that. Lets hope it all turns out that way. x
