Thought this might help some of the ladies who have been through mc or knows someone who has...
Im really struggling at the moment, iv had 2 I dont know if it helped but its definately a comfort..
I saw this poem..
What makes a mother?

I thought of you and closed my eyes and prayed to god today.
I asked what makes a mother, and I know I heard him say.

A mother has a baby, this we know is true.
But god can you be a mother, when your baby’s not with you?

Yes, you can, he replied, with confidence in his voice,
i give many women babies, when they leave is not their choice.

Some I send for a lifetime, and others for a day.
And some I send to feel your womb, but there’s no need to stay.

I just don’t understand this god, I want my baby here.
He took a breath and cleared his thought, and then I saw a tear.

I wish I could show you, what your child is doing today.
If you could see your child smile, with other children and say…

“we go on earth to learn our lessons, of love and life and fear.
My mummy loved me so much, I got to come straight here.

I feel so lucky to have a mum, who had so much love for me.
I learned my lessons very quickly, my mummy set me free.

I miss my mummy oh so much, but I visit her each day.
When she goes to sleep, on her pillow’s where I lay.

I stroke her hair and kiss her cheek, and whisper in her ear,
mummy don’t be sad today, i’m your baby and i’m here.”

so you see dear sweet one, your children are okay.
Your babies are here in my home, and this is where they’ll stay.

They’ll wait for you with me, until your lessons are through.
And on the day that you come home, they’ll be at the gates for you.

So now you see what makes a mother, it’s the feeling in your heart.
It’s the love you had so much of, right from the very start.

Though some on earth may not realise, until their time is done.
Remember all the love you have, and know that you are a special mum
