Parenting after a Loss

Scrapbooking u/s pics Q?

So I have left open 4 pages in the front of LO's scrapbook for the first 6 months, I put his u/s pictures of just him in the book already...But I don't know whether or not I should put the regular twin u/s pictures in? And if I should put the couple of just Ross that I have?

Or should I just store them in a safe place for later, after I've actually had a chance to explain to him once he's older that he had a twin brother. ERG I hate not being able to make such a simple decision without having to ask someone. =| I never thought I would have a need to be go so needy. I actually kind of get on my own nerves. I'm really starting to wonder how people put up with me all day. =)

  • I would probably put the u/s pictures of the two of them in there. Put the u/s pictures in order in the book. I'd leave the ones of just Ross out and put those in a special memory book or place for you. Your son will love his book and love seeing his twin in utero with him. ((hugs))

  • I agree with Tiffany. I'm also a firm believer in talking about lost siblings or adoptions etc. from the start, so that they know from early on. I think that's easiest for them.

    As for the pics of Ross, we made a shadow box of little things from our loss pregnancy. We hadn't gotten to the point of an u/s, but we were able to fill a whole shadow box and we have it hanging in our home. We will eventually make another on for our DD, but I like that we have something special just for Taylor. It's a daily reminder of how much we loved him/her.

    Hugs, hope you find a special place for Ross' pictures.
