TTC After a Loss

What to do with this picture?

After our sheer excitment of our very first BFP I took a picture of those 2 wonderful pink lines. Now that picture just sits on my computer. I can't bring myself to delete it, but feel like I should do something with it. Any ideas?

Re: What to do with this picture?

  • All of my sticks are still in my closet.  I won't keep them but can't throw them away just yet.  I also have pics on my computer that I will keep because I started a folder with BFP pics and a pic of my belly at around the time I got my BFP along with pics of our DS with his Big Brother shirt on. :,)  Can't and won't get rid of them...the pregnancy existed and is a part of our lives. I'll just leave them in the computer for the time being.

  • Maybe make a scrap book? If you have ultrasound pics and whatnot. That is a very big part of your life, cherish it.... :)

    this!

    So so sorry for your loss.I wouldn't delete this picture without printing it first.

    I had some pictures of our BFP, my nonexistent baby bump and even texts to and from my husband that I printed out and put in an adorable little box along with the pee sticks and an "I love my daddy" onesie I bought.  It was honestly so therapeutic for me to put all of these little momentos in the box...I am so glad I didn't delete the pictures even though there were times I wanted to.

  • We don't have any ultrasound pictures but do have one picture that I wanted to post when we were ready on Facebook.  Unfortunately, never got the chance.  I am holding my little dog who is in a t-shirt that says "Mommy is Pregnant"

  • I had a pic on my phone from my BFP...when we went to the dr and found out I was going to m/c I had DH delete it. He asked me 2 times if I was sure..and i said yes...I don't regret doing that for me, personally I just couldn't stand the though of ever seeing it again. BUT I totally get why someone wouldn't or couldn't do that.  I said print it off- maybe make a cute little memorial or something with it...even if its something you don't want sitting out so you can see all the time- put it in the back of the closet or something. 

     

  • I had an u/s pic on my fridge, but made DH take it down the night we found out. No idea where he put it, but I'm hoping he didn't throw it away because I think at some point I will want to look at it again - right now it is just too hard.

  • I deleted mine from my first m/c without printing them first and I regretted it.

    After my second I printed them out in a collage with a quote that many of you have probably seen " An angel in the book of life wrote down my babies birth and smiled as she closed the book too beautiful for earth" Then I deleted them from my computer. I don't want to see them on there but I can always pull out the collage.

  • Thank you ladies! I don't have an ultrasound picture only the picture of my pee stick (lovely right?). They did an ultrasound in the ER, but I was never given any pictures. I think I am going to incorporate some of your ideas and make a mini scrapbook page and put it in a frame. It's not something I really want to hang on a wall, but maybe just hang it inside of the closet in a place safe, but where I can look at it when I want to.

    I am so sorry for all of your losses. I hope you all have a wonderful night!
