Time for Introduction

mollywobbles13 · April 2012

I've been on this board looking for about a week now. I haven't been ready to introduce myself, but I've been feeling down since last night and I think it's time. I gave birth to my beautiful daughter Ellie who was born sleeping March 10 2012. I was 36 weeks, and everything up until the moment they couldn't find the heartbeat was perfect. These past few weeks have been so hard, but I'm trying my best to stay positive about everything. I'm trying to be the best person I can be because I know Ellie is watching. My DH has been so incredible through all of this, dealing with his grief while helping me with mine. I've just felt blue and feel like from reading a lot of other posts that everyone on this board is so supportive, and some of the most postive women I've seen on loss boards. I hope to step out of my shyness and be active and get to know the incredible women on here. Thanks for listening!

I am so sorry for the loss of your Ellie. We always hate welcoming new people but everyone here is very supportive and it's a great place to turn to when you feel alone or like no one understands. We're all here for you as you begin this journey. {{HUGS}}

I'm so sorry for the loss of your Ellie. I am sad to welcome you but happy you decided to join the board. I am fairly new, we said hello and goodbye to our daughter Patricia on March 30 at 31 weeks. Like you, everything up until that horrifying moment had been perfect. I felt great during the whole pregnancy, never even had any morning sickness!

I understand your feelings about wanting to be the best person you can be. I have been taking it a day at a time and focusing on what I can do each day. I'm happy your DH has been there for you, I would be lost without mine right now!

So sorry you are here. It's so sad to hear of people losing their babies like that. ((hugs))

I hate that I have to welcome you to this board but I tell you these woman are amazing. We lost our DD almost 7 months ago and I have no idea how I would have gotten through it if I didn't have these ladies. I am so sorry for the loss of your baby girl Ellie. If you ever need to talk we are here to listen. Huge hugs!!!

Thank you everyone. Just introducing myself has made me feel better today. I've wanted so bad to do it, but I just couldn't bring myself to type any of it out. I've taken that first step and it feels good.

I am so very sorry for the loss of your precious baby girl Ellie. I hate to welcome anyone to this board, but we will always be here for you. The women I have met on here are truly amazing and so supportive. I know how incredibly difficult the first month was for me, so I hope that the days become less painful for you. I'll be thinking about you, your DH and your family. Sending big ((hugs)) your way.

I'm so sorry you lost Ellie. My loss was almost 6 mos. ago, and like Heatherhah said, I don't know how I would've made it without this board and these great ladies. I'm glad to hear your DH has been very supportive, that's wonderful. I too feel like my DH and I have become closer through this tragedy somehow.

I am so sorry for your loss. It is the worst feeling in the world to have nurses and doctors around you and them saying that there is no heartbeat. I lost my daughter at 26 weeks gestation. Everyone is different on here and in different stages. They are amazing women who want to help and listen. This is one of my reliefs to go on here and get support from all over the place. Dont be shy this is the one place we can all be ourselves. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers. And with each hour and each day you will get stronger.

I am so sorry for your loss. I am new here too and hate that I have become a member of this exclusive club. I love the picture of your tattoo. I am thinking about doing something similar to pay tribute to my daughter.

mollywobbles13 · April 2012

Tuscanbride, the tattoo was a huge part of my initial healing process. My DH got his three days after we had Ellie. I had to wait three weeks so my body healed from birth a bit. It was a very strange sensation, it was physical pain that somehow eased the emotional pain even it was for a short time. I now have her exact footprint on me and it's nice to just be able to look at it and have her with me at all times. Please share if/when you decide to get yours, I'd love to see it.

tuscanbride2007 · April 2012

I definitely will! I already have a tattoo that I got on a whim 10 years ago that never really had much meaning to me. I am thinking of adding to it somehow with her name. I just haven't figured out exactly how I want it.
