The pain of burying an unborn child (in the mind or the cemetery) is incomparable to any other type of suffering. There's nothing wrong with feeling pain. In fact, if you don't feel, you probably have not begun to grieve. The thing to "cure" your pain is to feel it—intensely, shockingly, deeply. Someone you love has died. It is natural to feel that loss expressed in pain. Physical pain, emotional pain, mental pain—these are normal ways for our minds and bodies to deal with tragedy.
The pain is often too much and threatens to crush you. Don't get discouraged. Someday the pain will lessen, becoming a familiar twinge when something sparks the memory of your loss. Again, this is a blessing in disguise; it validates your grief and reminds you of one of the things that make you who you are.
