Late Term and Child Loss

My Poor Heart

Sometimes I wonder how much sadness our hearts can take... so many people tell me how "strong" I am...and you all know that we feel anything but strong.  I feel like any day now my heart won't be able to take it. There is a beautiful walkway from my office that overlooks the ocean...before I was pregnant it was my jogging route.  Peyton and I took countless walks along that path, me with a huge grin on my face rubbing my growing belly... well today I went for a jog for the first time on that path again.  My heart aches for him... so very much.

  • I felt that way too for months after Bryce's death.  I still feel that way at times, but I feel like my heart has gotten "stronger".  Yours will too.  I hope you had a nice jog, and were able to enjoy yourself a little.

  • All the "firsts" after a loss are so heartbreaking. I can't help but think "this is the first time I have ______ (fill in the blank) since we lost Nathaniel" for even silly little things.

  • I am so sorry too, hun. Those days will become more and more far and few between as time goes on. I promise. We have all been there. 

    (((hugs))) 

  • I am so sorry, I totally understand how you feel.  I think the most surprising trigger for me was when I went to the Y for my first class back since I had Annabelle. When the class started all I could think was the last time I was here I was 7 weeks pregnant and oblivious at the route the pregnancy would take.  It was really hard for me to continue with the class, but I stuck with it and was proud of myself for finishing that night.  Hopefully that route will bring back your happy pregnancy memories someday and you can jog that was with a smile on your face remembering that happiness.
