You matter too- Ways to support your mental health

May 13
1 min read

🫶 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.
