Does anyone else ever feel emotionally scarred by the experience of not getting to keep their baby with them after they were born and then being away from them for so long and only getting to see them/stroke them through an incubator.
I am loving being a mum and know Ella and I have a very strong bond and I also know that 9 days in SCBU is nothing compared to what a lot of people go through but I genuinely still often feel sad for myself and for her that we couldn't be together during those special first few days.
I am terrified of it happening again and desperately hope that I get to hold and keep my next baby with me and don't have to go through the whole SCBU thing again.
I've looked for support groups etc... but can't find any which makes me think I'm just being daft and that most people just get on with it.
