The purpose of the baby we lost

Before I go on, I want to tell all the mothers who have lost a baby that life doesn't stop for anything or anyone; it's that real and straightforward.

As we all know, there are many women who have to keep working, keep the family together, have a social life, answer emails, answer chats, feel good, eat well, take care of pets, clean the house, take care of other children if you have them, exercise, and many other things depending on your lifestyle.

So you're wondering how to find time to heal physically and mentally after feeling so empty after losing your baby, given how bad you feel. Unfortunately, there's no formula for this; it's a matter of finding something that motivates you to move forward.

In my case, since I wasn't living in Panama at the time, I had few people close to me to encourage me (but the ones I had were the best), so I decided that to avoid thinking about negative things, I would focus my thoughts on a master's degree.

Many mothers around the world call babies who died before birth "Star Babies." This is because their life with you was like a shooting star—fleeting yet leaving a lasting impression. Many say that star babies were never truly born and that you can't love them if you didn't hold them or see them. I personally disagree. When you find out you're going to be a mother, you generally fall in love immediately and eagerly anticipate that blind date.

To all the women with twin babies, stay strong and try to accept what happened. The only way to heal is if you allow yourself to; no one else can do it for you. So keep going, you have a twin star shining for you every night, and it certainly doesn't want you to stay in the dark.

A hug,

Taylin
