Pregnant after a Loss

due date changed to our Angel's birthday...

So we had our first U/S last week showing the perfectly healthy baby measuring 6 days behind what we thought based on my LMP. They changed my due date to July 26 since it was more than a 5 day difference. This new due date is the SAME EXACT day we had to give birth to our sleeping angel this past year! I have very mixed emotions about this. I know I will most likely not have this baby on the due date, but having to be excited about a date that was so horrific for us is very difficult. I figured you ladies would understand what I am feeling. Another thing is this baby was not planned, we were thinking we would wait a little longer so we could heal after our loss. This all adds to me feeling a little over whelmed at this point. Tongue Tied

  • One of my friends delivered a year to the date of her miscarriage. She said as difficult as it was, she can celebrate both. And she knows she will never accidentally forget the date of her loss.

  • ((HUGS)) I completely understand. This baby girl's eviction date is the same date as her big sister's birthday. I have very mixed emotions knowing that even if it is not the same day, it will likely be the same week. I am hoping that the joy of bringing her home will help soothe our hearts but I also want to honor the day we met our Patricia.

  • I just want to help you put a positive twist on this...your new LO will always have that special connection with your angel baby.  She will always be looking down over this LO.

  • Hugs! I'm sorry you are going through that.

    I'm due the same day I got pregnant with our second angel. For some reason I remember those dates. I thought of it as kind of messege from my other babies. Maybe my angel wanted that day continue to be a happy day.
