Today is the third anniversary of my daughters burial & I'm struggling. She was stillborn at 35 weeks + 2 days in 2012, it was an "unexplained" stillbirth. I've been fine with it as much as a mum can be, I've gotten through it by living by the saying "everything happens for a reason". I've since had 2 more daughters & life is busy.
It was her 3rd birthday (day I gave birth to my sleeping angel) 2 weeks ago and like all other birthdays we went to her block of land with flowers & a birthday cake, sang happy birthday & left her a piece of cake to share with other family members who have also passed.
Today is the day she was buried 3 years ago & is the first time I've really really felt like screaming/crying & getting in my car & not coming home. I just want to go away for I don't know how long.
I don't know what I'm asking or wanting but just needed to vent.
No idea why

Grief is a strange thing, it is rarely a straight line kind of deal. I'm sorry for your loss and it is ok to take time out to grieve.
I wish I could give you a hug! What a tough thing to go threw! You're so strong to do what you have done and to make it where you are now. My dad passed when I was 8, I know it's lot different to your own child but I wasn't sure how to cope for a long time either, it takes time to learn how. I'm so sorry for your loss and am glad you now have rainbow babies!
No advice, but sending hugs.
