Babies: 9 - 12 Months

Imagine you not in DC's life??

It's crazy how much love you can have for someone.   I think because I've been sick the last few days and haven't been able to really hold, feed or play with DS I started thinking.  I can't imagine life without DS in it.   It makes me so sad to think what if something happened to me and DS didn't have his mom or vice versa. 

Have these thoughts ever crossed your mind? 

I think I need to shake these negative thoughts!  It makes me sick to my stomach!

Re: Imagine you not in DC's life??

  • Yup its crossed my mind only because my parents willingly have chosen to not be in our lives for the last year. They decided this while I was in the hospital healing from my c-section. I could NEVER do to my children what they have done to me and my son. It's just unfathomable.

  • I have those thoughts occasionally. They make me really sad to even think things like that. I try and think of something that makes me happy to get those thoughts out of my mind.
  • I think about it all the time, and so does DH. My dad hasn't talked to me in 10 years, and either has DH's. Although, his dad just recently came around because he is dying. It makes me very sad, and I do not understand it at all.

  • Yes, and it makes me sad. Nobody knows just the right thing to do or the right way to do things to make her happiest like I do. Nobody comforts her like I do. Nobody understands her like I do. Not even DH. Life without her mommy would be really difficult for my daughter.

  • It's definitely crossed my mind.  In fact, yesterday I was almost in a car accident and it crossed my mind then...to the point that I ended up crying about it on the way home.  I know that DH would be a great father to her but a little girl needs her mom!!  I lost my mom when I was 22 and I feel like I still need her!  I couldn't imagine growing up with out a mother.

  • I thought about it the other day when I was driving home. I wondered what DH would do and how he would tell DC if I died. I just pictured DS saying mama, mama and DH struggling with that. :(

     Still makes me sad.

  • I think what you are talking about is a normal fear for any parent and one that crosses every parents mind at some point.  When I was on bedrest, it was so hard to do be part of everything my DD was doing.  She was 21 months when my 2nd DD was born and I missed about 2 weeks of her everyday life and then I was in the hospital for 4 days with the baby.  It was so hard.  Granted she is at daycare FT but not doing her morning and night time routine was so hard and my hubby did such fun things with her on the weekend.  She did get used to coming to find me when she got home which was nice.  It was hard though.  I hate being away from her adn am dreading a few trips I have coming up since my girls won't be coming.

  • My father died just after I turned 3 so my brother and I grew up without a dad.  My DS which is the first grandchild on my side of the family is named after my dad and to this day I still cry watching my DH and DS play together because I now truly understand the father child relationship.  I am so thankful every day that my DS has both his mommy and daddy who adore him.
