🫶 It can feel impossible to think about yourself.
🫶So much energy goes into surviving the grief, getting through the hours, and carrying the weight of what’s happened.
🫶But you matter too.
🫶Looking after yourself is NOT selfish. It is not moving on. It is not forgetting your baby or babies.
🫶It is allowing your body, mind, and heart the care they need while carrying unimaginable loss.
🫶That care might look like:
• keeping hydrated
• resting when you can
• taking medication you’ve been prescribed
• stepping outside for fresh air
• accepting help
• saying no to things that feel too much
• speaking kindly to yourself on the hardest days
🫶There is no “right” way to grieve, and there is no timeline for healing.
🫶But you deserve support, compassion, nourishment, and gentleness as you navigate life after loss.
🫶Your baby or babies will always matter…….And so do you.
