I would go with the godmothers day card but not a mothers day card.
If it was me I would get upset cos Im getting a mothers day card and Im not a mother...ya know?

A better option would be a "Thinking of you" card, just so she knows you are there for her at this difficult time, thats something that would make me smile.

As the others said, the GodMothers card is a better choice - I know that when I miscarried last year, it was kinda upsetting for me when mothers day came, being reminded that I wasn't gonna be a mother then...]]> Sat, 26 Apr 2008 14:42:32 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16589&PID=366544&title=mothers-day#366544 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16589&PID=364881&title=mothers-day#364881 Author: LittleBug

Thanks for the advice, I don't want to upset her, just remind her that I really care... so think I will go with the Godmother's Day card idea.

Thanks ladies ]]> Thu, 24 Apr 2008 11:23:21 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16589&PID=364881&title=mothers-day#364881 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16589&PID=364037&title=mothers-day#364037 Author: my2angels

Hmm yeah I don't want anyone to give me a mothers day card... I know my mum probably would give me one if I was still pregnant, but I hope no one does now that I'm not pregnant anymore!
It's a really nice idea, but personally I think it would upset me to get a mothers day card after my miscarriage.
I really really like the Godmothers Day card idea though! ]]> Wed, 23 Apr 2008 11:30:29 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16589&PID=363888&title=mothers-day#363888 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16589&PID=363805&title=mothers-day#363805 Author: peanut butter

Ooooo tough one isnt it? I know when you are preggy you want mothers day recognition but not sure after a MC! Maybe play it safe and do the Godmother thing!

I like the idea of Happy GodMother's Day card, so you could do that
But having suffered a miscarriage I know I would get upset at being "reminded" of the fact that I'm not actually a mother...
I think the thought is lovely, Janey, but if it were me I'd be sad.

Ok so I haven't actually had a miscarriage myself, so I don't really have a clue what things would be running through my head if I had. So I wanted some advice.

My daughter's godmother had a miscarriage not that long ago... her baby would have been due in September. Anyway I wanted to get her a Mother's Day card, just to let her know I'm thinking of her etc... but I don't know, do you think it's a good idea? She hasn't got any other kids or anything.

But I thought I could say thanks for being a Godmother, at the same time as remembering her little angel.

Any suggestions? Or is it a terrible idea... I don't want to upset her or anything.]]> Wed, 23 Apr 2008 09:50:03 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16589&PID=363796&title=mothers-day#363796
