Mom life should really make a special color for the children who are no longer living such as child loss and or miscarriage. Bc I have my daughter who passed at the age of 5 and also my 2 miscarriages listed as my children on this site and noone would know that I don't have any living children unless they view my profile. Which alot of people don't do, and it causes alot of unnessacary comments that could have easily been avoided. Ex: I just made a post about my husband suffering from addiction and the first thing they brought up was my children. How "they dont deserve this environment pretty much! And how they should come first ect. ect." Well of course and if my kids were here, I would have left a long time ago! Anyways ME having 3 children listed confuses people into thinking that I have 3 living children! When I don't. And it causes alot of confusion and makes me have to explain stuff that I don't every what to explain every time I turn around. I have suggested this once to mom life before. But nothing happened. Do yall get what I'm saying or is it just mee?
Thank you all for the replies. It's good to know I'm not the only one feeling this way. Hopefully this post will help mom life decide that this would be a good option to add. I'm sorry for all your losses.
100% agree, I had two miscarriages and I didn’t know what their genders were so I think it would be a good idea to have an “angel baby” option if you didn’t get to know the gender of the baby/babies. I hope @mom.life_usa will add this to the app one day, they’re real busy right now working on all the new things that they’ve been adding to the app but hopefully once they get everything updated they’ll work on adding a lost baby option because I’ve seen a lot of women make posts similar to yours. 💜
@mother.of.angels, I’m so sorry that you’ve had to deal with comments like that! People do a lot of assuming sometimes.
Oh and im very sorry for your loss. My stillbirth was honestly the hardest thing ive ever dealt with and im still broken. Hope you get your rainbow.
I agree i had a stillborn in 2016. Shes not included on the 3 i listed. Maybe i should though she woulve been two in aug
I'm right there with you, I suggested this months ago, all the responses I got from everyone were "you can still list them" but that's not the same. I hope @mom.life_usa can make it happen if more moms agree it would be beneficial👍
I agree @mother.of.angels, .... I don’t even have my losses listed on here ...partially for that reason. You can’t easily tell just from looking at the name and children’s ages on a post. Maybe @mom.life_usa, can make it an option to choose from on the profile and maybe the bubble and show up with a different color or something . Side note: I’ve even seen people list their pets as their children which is also confusing
I agree it’d be nice. There are lots of babies that are listed and it gets confusing sometimes
I agree
