Feeling better about today then I expected. EDD (Sorry its long) update page 2


Hi everyone,

Well it has finally come around to today (EDD), and my heart isn't feeling how I expected it to.
In November when we got that terrible news that our sweet baby girl was gone. Silly things went through my head like we would never see her eye color (would she have been my first green eyed baby or would she have daddy's brown eyes like my other 2). We will not get to watch her grow, laugh, or experience her life.
We did get to hold her and kiss her and got pictures and footprints. But I walked out of that hospital with empty arms and a broken heart.

These past few months have been hell not only for me but for my entire family. We all lost a part of us not just me.
Last week I was involved in a terrible accident due to me being so upset but walked away. At first I thought it was just more to add to my bad luck. Kick em when their down type of attitude.

Then I had a revelation of sorts, and with some great words from some very wonderful people (you know who you are) my outlook has changed. I am no longer going to abuse myself (mentally)! Take all the blame for this when there was absolutely nothing I could have done to change this from happening. I guess the crash has woke me up in so many words. I could have been very seriously injured and not be here today. That scared me awake And made me do a lot of soul searching. Is this how I want to live the rest of my life?

My heart will always ache for her and I will always wonder what if I did this or I didn't do this. It happened and there is nothing I can do to bring her back. I am very lucky to have been her mommy even if it was only for 6months. I wouldn't give up that for anything.
I feel good about today.. I feel good about how I have made it to the other side of this tunnel of hurt, I have been drowning in for months. I have come out of this a stronger person and a better mother to my older LO's.

Sorry this was so long I just wanted to get this out and hopefully it can help someone else who is still struggling.
Sorry for all of you ladies and your family's for the loss of your baby's

RIP my sweet Rebecca mommy loves you!

Thank you, but I think you are the brave one. You are brave just by getting on here and telling people about your little boy and the sadness you feel. That takes a lot of courage to put your feelings out there like that. I am very proud of you.
Again I am so sorry for your loss and all your pain and your family's pain right now. It is hard to be strong for older children when all you wanna do is break into pieces. Take care of yourself you are on my mind

I cried reading your post. You are so brave and I'm so relieved that you're starting to feel a little bit more positively about everything. I may have only known you for a very short time through cyber space, but I'm very proud of you.

There will be set backs along the way, but you're getting there. You're doing an amazing job.

Big hugs for your edd
