Late Term and Child Loss

Movie commercial warning!

Hello - I have been vacant from the board. This past few weeks have been difficult and I have not felt like I have been able to be supportive to others. That being said I wanted to pass this along so maybe another loss momma won't be caught off guard like I was. 

My husband took me to see John Carter, a sci-fi movie that came out a few weeks ago. During the previews they played several commercials, usual car and beverage ads. Then comes on a commercial showing pictures of a newborn baby with a father voice speaking over it saying how upset he was when he lost his newborns pictures. Pictures!! Seriously!! I lost it and started crying. There were too many cute little baby pictures to handle.  It was a Google commercial about saving pictures online. 

It caught me way off guard. I didn't expect to cry at a sci-fi movie. Anyways, I wanted to give you guys a heads up. After losing the twins, losing pictures of a baby that you get to hold and snuggle, just seems so trivial. I would give anything to have my babies back.

  • Yes. I went and saw the Hunger Games and this was the first one that popped up after we sat down. I lost it and almost had to run out of the theater because I nearly started to have a panic attack. Then after that came a preview for What to Expect... and I just closed my eyes and plugged my ears. It sucks how even simple things like going to the movies are difficult!

  • Oh my gosh!  The same thing happened to me tonight when we went to see the Hunger Games. I was a blubbering mess the rest of the movie-I thought I would have to walk out when Katniss volunteered to take Prim's spot!
