  1. I Am Here

    • By Stacey Jo Rumberger
    • Published by Family Friend Poems July 2012 with permission of the Author.

    I am a mom of four handsome boys. When people ask if I was "trying for that girl," I get so mad because they have no idea. You don't have a baby because you want one; you are given a baby because the big man upstairs says so. Things happen for a reason, what reason? We will never know. I don't have a good story to share. My sister lost a baby boy 8 years ago in the 2nd trimester & I have had too many friends lose or miscarry their angel babies.

    in Miscarriage Poems

    Please don't cry, I am here.
    Just look around; I am very near.
    I am the prettiest butterfly
    exploring the day.

    I had a miscarriage at 16 weeks with my first pregnancy.

    in Miscarriage Poems

    We don't want to cry anymore,
    But the pain won't go away.
    Our hearts are torn in two
    Because our baby couldn't stay.

  4. I Did Not Expect This

    • By Carola
    • Published by Family Friend Poems July 2010 with permission of the Author.

    My first pregnancy just ended with a natural miscarriage at 8 weeks. The doctors, my friends and my family are all trying to provide support. They keep telling me that there was nothing I could do because it is a natural thing that just happens. It is so hard for me to accept that.

    in Miscarriage Poems

    This is natural, they say.
    It is all for the best.
    I cannot move past this heartache,
    This pain in my chest.

  8. My Dreams For You

    • By Daniel Kerr
    • Published by Family Friend Poems July 2012 with permission of the Author.

    I have never really been able to express my feelings very well. In fact, I am usually as closed off to the world about my feelings as a giant rock. However, since my daughter died, I can't stop writing these poems, and I want to share with the world the love I have for my beautiful baby girl.

    in Baby Death Poems

    I had so many dreams for you
    That will now never come true.
    I wanted you to have the life I never had,
    Where every day was good and not one day was bad.

  9. Four Words

    • By Sue Morton
    • Published by Family Friend Poems February 2009 with permission of the Author.

    After 5 years of trying I finally got pregnant the beginning of June 2008 . I was ecstatic. My mum passed away June 10, 2007 so I thought this was her final gift to me, as she always wanted to be a grandmother. As of September 11 (what a great date already), I lost my precious gift.
    I know everything happens for a reason. I know there is sunshine at the end of this rainstorm, but it sure doesn't feel like it right now.

    in Baby Death Poems

    Despair.
    falling deeper & deeper each day.
    wondering what else I'll lose
    and wondering if it'll go away.

    The story behind my poem is the story of my own loss and sadness as a mother losing her child and also about how through this pain I gained wisdom and inner strength. My little baby was a very special gift to my life.

  15. I'm Waiting For You

    • By Emily B. Judisch
    • Published by Family Friend Poems May 2019 with permission of the Author.

    This past fall I had a miscarriage. While I try every day to find reason or to justify it being for the best, I can't seem to find closure. I've set my life in a tail spin trying to get pregnant again, thinking that will fill the hole I can't seem to fill otherwise. After you have a miscarriage, you find out it's super common, but no one wants to talk about it. They might ask how you are, but no one wants the real answer. So I put some of those feelings into this poem.

    in Miscarriage Poems

    At one time, I thought you were near,
    A feeling so abundantly strong and clear.
    Inside me you grew and grew,
    I was impatient waiting for you.

    I found out on my husband's birthday that our 11 week old little bean had passed away. I went in for my routine doctor appointment and ultrasound. The baby measured perfectly to its gestational age but no longer had a heartbeat. Not only was it my husband's birthday but he was deployed to Afghanistan and all he had asked for was me to email him a picture of the ultrasound.

    • By David W. Hewitt
    • Published by Family Friend Poems March 2016 with permission of the Author.

    After the miscarriage of our baby, I had to find a way to help ease the pain we were experiencing. Putting it in words seemed to be a way of letting our baby know that we were sorry for what happened and that we loved him or her.

    in Miscarriage Poems

    As you lied so helpless in the womb,
    We patiently awaited your day of bloom.
    A boy, a girl, we had not a clue,
    We'd love no matter what, and this we knew.
