Mummy's who have lost a twin

[kimbobt84-BensMummy]

 My twins were born last May but sadly our little man Ben passed away when he was 3 weeks old. Holly is a thriving, healthy 10 mth old now. I would really like to talk to mums who've lost a twin and how they cope with grieving for one twin whilst bringing up the other, alone x

Hi,I'm also a mummy who has lost one of her twins.I had twin boys and sadly only one survived.I had them 5 weeks early and Jamie was born into the world an angel,The surviving twin Stephen is a big two year old now who I would never be with out he's my world,as all my other kids are but i always feel quilty as he should have his little brother with him.It's so hard every mile stone you hit you felt so happy for Stephen but so guilty for being happy as Jamie is'nt here doing the same.People say it gets easier but I'm yet to know as i miss my little man so much.I hope we can be some help to each other.love lisa xxx

 Every milestone is so bitter sweet-everywhere i look theres a 'space'-when i check on Holly in her cot on a night-theres a space next to her on a cold night where Ben should be cuddled upto her, when she learned to get up on her knees and her cute little face popped up-there was a space where BEN SHOULD BE.
 I'm convinced that i'm going to loose Holly-i think about how i'd have to re-design Ben's stone, i creep into the bedroom on a morning convinced she's been taken in the night to cot-death-how awful to have these thoughts

I Know exactly how you feel i was convinced stephen was going to die.We kept him in our room until he was one as i was so petrified he'd stop breathing.We had his cot right up beside our bed and he also had angel monitors on.When stephen was only a week old he caught bronchiolitis and had to be resuscitated two times,he was in hospital for over a month and i don't know weather that made me worse or not,but even now i go into his room to check on him a number of times through out the night.When you have lost a child i don't think you ever think like other mums again.I don't think your awful for thinking any of those thinks as I'm sure everyother mum on this site has had similar feelings.love Lisa xxx
