Late Term and Child Loss

Intro & loss story mentioned

My name is Lori and I'm in Atlanta.  I came over here from the Feb 2014 board. We lost our little one a week ago today.  Went to my regular monthly appointment and found no heartbeat at 21 weeks. We were admitted to the hospital, induced, and delivered her later that evening.  I'm sort of wavering between grief and disbelief.  We picked up her ashes a few days ago and everything just seemed to happen so fast.  I still have nightmares about the delivery... about delivering a sleeping baby and never hearing her cry. We named her Coraline.

I still haven't gone back to work.  DH has, and it has been hard for him.  I'm not sure when I will - I tried reading my email this morning and had a panic attack. We have a 3 year old daughter who has been such a source of comfort to us. She is incredibly loving to us right now - I just hope we aren't affecting her with our sadness.  I just wanted to reach out here since I've met some wonderful people on TB in many different groups.  My heart goes out to every one of you for your losses.

  • I am so sorry for the loss of your sweet baby girl Coraline. As PP stated, it is always sad to welcome a new member to our board, but you will find amazing support. My DD#1 was 3 1/2 when my Annabelle was born sleeping. She has been an awesome strength through this journey. It is amazing how the innocence of children can lift you out of your darkest places.

  • I'm so sorry for your loss. Coraline is a beautiful name.

    I lost my son at 22w4d in Nov. 2011. I STILL have moments of disbelief. My daughter was 2 at the time and she gave me a reason to go on. It was (and still is) impossible to hide all of my sadness from her and I don't think it's good to. Sadness is a part of life. Though it seems impossible now, you will smile and laugh again and she will see your joy in those moments just as she sees your grief now. I think it's healthy.

    This is a great place of comfort. I hope you find some here.

  • I am so desperately sorry for the loss of your sweet baby, Coraline. Two months ago, I too, lost our baby boy, Chase, at 21 weeks, and I'm still taking my time in this grief process.  Some days are definitely better than others.  I also have an older DD who is 4 1/2 and she is our joy in this world!  However, it was a struggle to tell her that her little brother is no longer in Mommy's tummy.  She still asks questions from time to time, and that is expected.  It is not easy, but it does get 'easier'.  Please feel free to PM me if you want to talk.  Best wishes to you.  (((HUGS)))
