EDD

***ticker warning***

Saturday is my due date for Alice. I miss her so much and my heart aches for what could have been. I miss my daughter so much. These last few days have been tough and the tears come at the slightest push.

***SIGGY***

My one-year loss milestone is next week, and the waterworks have been going full blast for the last week. It's almost like I'm back to last year again.

Like pp said, do you have anything special planned? I'm so sorry, hon. Sending lots of hugs your way as you come up on such a big day.

I'm so sorry, ((hugs)). EDD's are so hard. DH and I did a balloon release for Ava on her EDD and it was very comforting to plan and do something special for her. As my therapist always says, there's no way around the grief and sadness, you just have to go through it. I will be praying for you and thinking of you and your DH on Saturday.

I'm so sorry - I'm still a month and a half away from mine and after reading from others, I want to plan something special.

The picture in of Alice and your wedding rings is beautiful - absolutely beautiful.

I am so very sorry that you are going through this rough time. EDDs and other anniversaries are so hard. I agree, do something special to honor her memory. I hope that you are able to get some joy out of the day.

EDDs are tough. Sending you lots of (((hugs))). I agree with PPs that doing something special helps. DH and I released some balloons at the cemetery and lit a candle for Izzie.

Ticker warning

I'm so sorry, the days leading up to my EDD were very hard too, I cried more that week than in the month or two prior. I didn't think I would, but I have felt a lot better since the EDD passed. I thought I would feel worse since after my EDD was when our baby should have been home with us and I should be on mat leave right now. But I guess because that was never part of our reality (whereas being pregnant and looking forward to our due dates was) it doesn't hurt as bad like I thought it would, if that makes any sense. Take good care of yourself and maybe do something in her honor to make yourself feel closer to her...we wrote messages on balloons and released them at the cemetery.
