Hello, My name is Michele. Every Christmas is bitter sweet for me. I lost my daughter Emily at 7 1/2 months pregnant. Its been 12 years this Christmas. She was born on Dec 21st. I still miss her, even after 12 years. :(

Thank you for letting me join your group. It will help I'm sure just to have someone to talk to that has been through this too. Thanks

Hi Michele, I am very sorry for your loss, my name is Sharon and even though I know it is  a tough time for you, your post has given me hope and strength to move forward, I recently experienced the stillbirth of our son Isaiah, 10/02/2009 we buried him 10/06.09, I as 30 weeks and 1 day when a routine  ob visit detected no heartbeat.  Our lives have been turned upside down ever since, but reading your post helps me know that even though it will hurt alot, I can move forward.  It really doesn't seem like it these days, most of the time I seem stuck in this world of surreal, just going through the motions of the day, my mind focused on the why's and just trying to make it through the day without too many tears.  I never have experienced anything this devastating, all of emotions of guilt, not being understood, people not really interested in what your dealing with each moment of each day, they seem to want you to just move on,it just isn't that easy. I thank you for your post, I am sorry for your loss, please know that your post is helping moms like me see the hope of moving forward even with a broken heart, my prayers are with you and your family during this time. I also am struggling during this holiday season, we all were so excited for the birth of our son Isaiah to join our family, my original due date was 12-5-2009.

Sincerely,

Sharon
