Its the Feast of Our Lady of Mount Carmel. It was one the days I was hoping I would be delivering Elijah. My next doctor visit I was going in with a list of dates ready, to plan my 1st c-section. Today was much harder than I had thought it would be.…

I thought of my aunt's blogspot for you when you mentioned keeping your hands busy in your last entry. The blogspot "makingitbetter.typepad.com" is by a mom of 8 whose 13 year old son died several years ago. Making things, using her…

I'm so glad for your response. Truely this is so helpful to me. I am finding that I am still very much in hormone hell. I think I'm ok and then stumble across little things I've done or forgotten to do that remind me vividly I am…

I am so sorry about your loss(es). Not a day goes by when I don't think about a child that I lost. I heard a Mother Angelica show one time that spoke to me. The caller lost an infant and in her relpy Mother talked about all of the "missed…

I more often than not took the kids with me to the grave site. Bring a snack, take your camera, visit other graves around your baby's grave. Let the kids place the flowers, or stuffed animal or whatever little memento you would like to leave!…

After I read you response I just wanted to cry and praise our mighty Lord's Love. It brings great joy to me also (and at a time when joy is even more precious). Just think, He is working though us to help heal such deep, deep wounds. I sang out…

I am so sorry for your loss, MT, and to Amy Marie, Jamie and Elena for their losses. In this day and age, with all the life-saving technologies that we have available to us, it is expected that a baby will come from a couple's openness to life,…

"I can't really put much into words with Him like I could before, all I can do is sit knowing I am in His Presence." Today is my birthday. I asked the Lord (pleaded, really) for a gift. I wanted something to help me through this…

Thank-you for responding to me. I was beginning to think there were no Catholic moms to be found out there in internet land. When did you lose you babies? The miscarriages I had were back to back and then I had my youngest son-he is about to turn 3.…

I am so sorry that this happened to you. It happened to me in 2002. I have some links and my own stillbirth story here. I can tell you that the pain, over time, will get better. Don't hide your feelings, talk about your baby and feel free to…

I'm so sorry for your loss of Elijah! I lost my Helen almost a year ago. She lived for two days. I'm sure that as each day goes by, you will grow in strength. But I've found that after a few months, there's a "forever…

I don't know. That is all I can say at this point in my life. I have three at home (homeschooled as well) and four in heaven (including my daughter Teresa, stillborn last September). I am REALLY struggling through this. I was accepting the…

Elijah was stillborn a month ago, how do you get through this?

Thumbnail
I've never posted anything before so I really hope I get this right,  because I need to hear from some of you who have been through this.  I have four children at home and three in heaven--two miscarriages (early) and now the stillborn.  We homeschool so the kids are always around.  I'm trying not to cry alot in front of them but they know I'm not myself and they know I'm very sad.  All I want is a baby in my arms,  my baby,  Elijah.  We just never thought this could happen, it blindsided us. …See More
