I'm never getting my blanket

KristysRedBarn

I'm honestly not sure what brought this all up last night, but I ended up crying myself to sleep, something I haven't done for months.

My great aunt, who passed away many years ago already, made my sister and I each a beautiful baby blanket.  They are so beautiful and delicate.  My sister's is green and yellow, mine is pink and blue, then they have white threads that almost look like lace.  I was adopted into my great aunt's family when I was 2 1/2, so I never got to use my blanket, it's tucked away in pretty tissue paper.  My mom has always told me I can have it when I have a baby of my own.  When I was pg my mom told me she would have the blanket cleaned and ready for when Miller was born, of course I never got the blanket.  For Christmas my cousin made my mom a blanket in a very similar patern, so maybe that's why I have these thoughts.  But last night I just laid in bed and cried because I don't think I'm ever going to get my blanket.

You WILL get your blanket!

How about talking to your Mum and asking her for the blanket now? Saying that it will give you lots of comfort to have it while you wait for your own baby?

Thanks for the advice yesterday by the way, about the prenatal yoga. I am going to do what you said and give her my cd's to practice with. I feel so much better, thanks again.?

There were so many moments when I really didn't think it was going to happen for me. I would get so emotional about it some days. I know it's hard, but you will get your baby some day. You will! (((Big hugs)))

Oh Kristy, you will get your blanket, and it will be sooner than you realize! The pp said about asking your mom for it early was a great idea, if that's an option. Try to keep your chin up, I know it's so very hard. (HUGS)
