Late Term and Child Loss

I survived the Target baby section

I ventured into the Target baby section today for the first time in a year and a half.  We go to Target all the time, but I have avoided that section like the plague.  I actually spent 15 or so minutes picking out an outfit for my friend's daughter (she's turning one in a few weeks and I'm actually going to attempt to go to the party).  For me, that 15 minutes is pretty big progress.  Don't get me wrong though - no plans to go hang out there anytime soon.  But I survived.
Mom to Eliott Alexander, born sleeping at 37 weeks on 8/13/10. Most of us only dream of angels - I held one in my arms.

  • Wow that is progress! I hope I can get there someday. Yes I'm hating all baby sections in all stores now and whenever DH and I are having a disagreement we'll joke about dropping each other off at Babies R Us for being "bad."Stick out tongue

  • I'm glad you were able to shop in that section. I had to go a few weeks ago to get a baby gift and it was tough.

  • You should be very proud!! I did not go into a baby section until I was 26 weeks along and had no choice at that point....It had been over 3 years since I was in any baby section.

    It is a huge step!! I am proud of you!

  • So proud of you.  To this day, I still can't survive more than 15 minutes in that section.  This is where we shopped for almost all Logan's things.
