I cried today...

[kiki04]

When setting up the xmas tree Hadlee should be here, sleeping away in her little bassinet while we had our xmas music on and me and the older kids and daddy decorated the tree, until she started screaming, then I would go get her and change her and nurse her until she was happy again.... but instead I was hanging an ORNAMENT ON MY TREE TO REMEMBER HER!!!! I am just getting so angry all over again lately... I want my baby... and I want to be pg again... and I dont get either of those right now

 

[blav]

Aww, I'm so sorry I wish I had something to say that could take away your pain and sadness. Hadlee wasn't there in person, but was certainly watching over her family today, especially her mom who she knows loves her so very much.

I'm so sorry hon, it's so unfair. I havent even thought about a tree yet, I'm hiding from the whole thing.

Huge to you xxx

I'm sorry...I cried yesterday too because of Christmas, I went shopping with my sister in law and there was decorations and Christmassy things everywhere, cute little clothes for babies.
It just made me think I should be looking after my gorgeous little girls right now.
Sorry for waffling just wanted you to know you are not alone, we all feel the same, I think the next few weeks will be bittersweet for us all xxxx

 

[MummyStobe]

Sending big I wish there was some easy way for us all to be able to get through the big milestones without any additional pain
I'm trying to focus on this Christmas as my nephew's first Christmas and making it special for him. I've already arranged for my sister to bring him over when I put the tree up to distract me, going to leave it a few more weeks though because I don't think I could face it being up for too long.
Max's due date was New Years Eve so that is going to be the hardest date for me. I hate New Year normally anyway and now i'll never be able to enjoy it xxx

Sending hugs and thinking of you today. It really is so very unfair, and I wish for all of us that this wasn't happening.

We will get through these things together

I am so sorry . I am dreading it, I am taking down the tree tomorrow and Ava should have been 4 months she would have been looking at me from her little seat and saying my mom is crazy she is fighting with a tree and ornaments I do it every year. I love you all and I know I always say it and believe me my loves our angels are with US I promise YOU this. I wish everyone a beautiful and A happy and healthy holiday..
Love You Alll

I am with you all on the dreading Christmas thing. I should have been starting my maternity leave soon and just sitting at home all cosy, getting fatter and waiting for the snow to come, and instead I'm back at work feeling far from in the Christmas spirit. Christmas carols always make me a bit emotional too, so goodness knows what I'll be like this year when I'm hearing them all the time. My way of trying to cope with this Christmas is by getting planned and prepared as soon as I can with presents, to prevent me from having anything to stress me out nearer the time. Then I'm hoping I'll be able to sit back and enjoy it all if I do feel in the mood, or just stay away from all the busy-ness and merriment if I am feeling a bit down.
Hopefully it won't be as tough as we're all expecting - sometimes the anticipation can be worse than the thing itself (Until I lost my baby I always used to be an optimist, but then that suddenly changed - maybe I'm getting some of my old spirit back!)
Sending lots of hugs and support to you all

I took DD to see Arthur Christmas yesterday and was on the verge of tears all the way through it, even though it was a funny happy film - thank the lord for black 3D glasses! So pathetic but everything around Christmas is just too emotive.

 

[babylou]

Sorry that you are feeling this way.

I am hoping that we can have some family time over Christmas as OH works away often and DD misses him terribly (me too). Hopefully we can focus on being together....

I would have had a 6 month tum by then

Sending lots of hugs

 

[angel jayvian]

Xmas should of been a happy time for all of us , with our little bundle of joy... its so unfair!!!!!! ... Hug and kisses to all!

 

[jennijunni]

I cried last night too while we were putting our tree up. Hugs!

 

[Maddysmum]

I feel the same we were so looking forward to xmas this year, Maddi would have been a couple of weeks old by then. big huggs to u mate

 

[kiki04]

Yeah Hadlee would have been about 2 weeks old by now

 

[mhazzab]

Yeah Hadlee would have been about 2 weeks old by now

I don't know about anyone else, but I feel like my grief is getting worse at the moment, not better. I honestly think its the thought of Christmas without my precious babies that's doing it. Roll on 2012 hopefully that will be a better year for all of us x

 

[Hellylou]

It's pretty daunting, for sure. I want to make it nice and special for my kids, and I am excited for them, but the knowledge that by christmas I should have been 7 months pregnant and excited about the arrival of my baby,is pretty hard to take, and I am trying not to dwell on it too much at the moment.

And yes, 2012 has got to be a better year for us all.

Same here Mhairi. 2012 has to be better, it can't be any worse, surely!

 

[yazoo]

I'm sorry hun. I feel exactly the same as you. I feel like I am getting worse instead of better and Xmas and Jakob's due date around the corner isn't helping at all.

 

[kiki04]

Well I am in the getting worse group too I know its because of xmas and like already said, I have other kids who I want to make it special for.. but its hard.

Come ON 2012! Just get here already so we can ring in a new year and hopefully a BETTER YEAR.... for all of us

My baby would have been born on the 1st, my partners birthday, and I felt sad that I didn't have my baby as I decorated my house up :/
