Unhappy Broken hearted

My heart is breaking. Our baby died. We were chosen by a wonderful birthfamily who were expecting in August. She went into labor today and the baby was dead. It seems as if the baby died a couple of weeks ago. It's chest was sunken, no fluid in the womb. Not real sure what happened exactly. Weird thing is, we just felt the baby move. The dr. said that it was probably the uterus contracting and moving the body around. My heart is breaking for her, my heart is breaking for us. My head is spinning. This is a nightmare.

We decided to name the baby 'Angel'. *sigh*

My heart aches for you. Be gentle with yourself and allow yourself to grieve. Perhaps together with the bfamily you could plan a funeral/memorial service.

Oh God, I am so sorry. For ALL of you.

Please be sure to care for yourselves, but for your birth mother, too...I agree with possibly planning a memorial or just anything that helps her not only know that you truly cared...but also so that she doesn't feel like she's "let you down"...I know that when I've miscarried, I felt like I let my whole family down...that's the only reason I mention that.

This has got to be SO hard for all of you...you're in my prayers.

(((HUGS)))

I am so sorry for your loss.

I just had a miscarriage myself this last week....after 8 1/2 years of trying and after just hearing and seeing our little ones heartbeat 2 weeks before. It's such a deep loss that you just can't prepare yourself for.

I can't imagine ....the pain and sadness that must be there....when you all had come soooo close to making it to the end....and holding that little one in your arms.

God bless all of you as you experience this great loss and sadness, our thougths and prayers go out to you and all those involved.

(((((HUGS)))))

My heart goes out to both bfamily and afamily. A family member suffered the same sorrow years before successfully adopting. Eleven years later I can still feel the pain of knowing she lost the little one. Allow yourself to grieve through this. You are part of his family.

I'm so incredibly sorry for you. Although her life was too short, Angel was deeply, deeply loved. I'm sure on some level, she knew this.

THERE ARE EIGHT DIFFERENT WAYS YOUR CHILD CAN DIE ON A CORDED WINDOW TREATMENT
Read "How Safe Cords Kill" at www.pfwbs.org

THREE CHILDREN HAVE STRANGLED TO DEATH SINCE ANGEL DIED ON 8/11/09.
Brandyn Coppedge died on 9/11/09. Rosie Smith died on 9/30/09 and Thapelo Kwofie died on 11/1/09. The Consumer Product Safety Commission is no longer recommending safety kits. They are now recommending that anywhere children live or visit should be free of corded window products.
