...I lost my baby. It's overwhelming to think about how much has changed in just one year. I am so blessed to have my Avery here with me. I want to do something today to remember her angel "sister".
Just curious, do you honor your lost baby on the date of your m/c or on your EDD of that pregnancy??
Re: 1 year ago today...
so sorry - it is a hard day on those dates
on my EDD mh wrote me a nice poem about everything that happend, other than that we haven't done anything, just sad days
We've been through the EDD twice and this year I just took some time to think about it quietly. Ironically, the EDD was the same day as my PP appointment for Kate so I did my thinking while on the train. We do have a small memory box for the baby and an angel of remembrance figurine in our bedroom.
DH and I still talk about the loss from time to time...the pain has lessened but I don't think it is something we will ever be over.
It's kinda a funny feeling, isn't it? We now have these beautiful babies, but there will always be thoughts of what life would've been with our angel babies. I've spent a lot of time recently thinking about the m/c, probably because around this time last year was when I got my bfp with Ben. It still makes me sad though.
I'm definitely a "date" person, so I talked about the loss on both dates. My husband, not so much. I did buy a Christmas ornament last year in honor of our little angel so it'll be nice to have that little angel hanging there on the tree this year.
I'm sorry. I got past my EDD last year knowing I was pregnant and I said an extra prayer and did some self reflection (it did help that I was in Maui!).
I got past the day I lost my pregnancy seeing my belly grow and loving my baby that much more.
I will be thinking about you today. I think about my angel baby all the time, but especially on the date of my m/c and the baby's EDD. My m/c anniversary was October 10, only 5 days before my little Jack was born. I still mourn the loss but know that I wouldn't have this little boy if not for my loss.
Sending you HUGS
