8 Ways To Remember & Memorialize Your Baby
8 Ways To Remember & Memorialize Your Baby
Story of Divorce & Miscarriage
I couldn't tell anyone that I was pregnant because I had just told them I was divorce. I thought my friends and family would judge me for having allowed myself to get pregnant.
Letter To My Friend
We ask G-d to forgive our sins during the past year and we reach out to family, friends and acquaintances with apologies as well. But what about when the person you most need to forgive is yourself?
Tired Of Waiting To Be A Mom
My hopes and dreams shattered just like that. My water broke and then at 16 weeks, you came out of me. A little girl, a tiny little girl. Oh, how tiny you were!
Miscarriage and Going Back To Work
I remember my initial reaction was anger. I was mad. I was REALLY mad. This was not the plan. I was supposed to be having a baby!
Medical Management Miscarriage Story
That Friday night was the worse night of my life!! The pain and trauma and blood loss that I went through, I would not wish it on ... my worse enemy.
I Was Supposed To
“I was supposed to be sick for 9 weeks as my body worked to create you, I was supposed to get pregnant and now I need to let you go”
Miscarriage During A Pandemic
“This pregnancy was a surprise, this baby was my light at the end of the tunnel. My company during the long, hard days. My motivation to stick something healthy inside my body and keep going.”
Secondary Infertility Journey
We just can’t seem to get to the bottom of this and my daughter is getting bigger and bigger with each month that passes. I am very grateful for her, but I very badly want to have more children.
My Heart Is Heavy & It Hurts
“My heart is heavy and it hurts I feel a physical painful sensation inside Tears are beginning to form in my eyes, but I hold them back. I feel sad, quiet and a feeling of despair washes over me.”
“I Wanted This Baby”
“And that entire time I wanted to scream at the top of my lungs, ‘ I WANTED THIS BABY! I PRAYED FOR THIS BABY.’ But I sat in silence and cried.”
“What Do I Want?”
“What do I want? I want to be free of pain. The pain of wanting to be pregnant but not knowing if it will ever happen.”
Feelings Post-Miscarriage
“I am faking it pretty well, but honestly- I am completely overwhelmed and devastated. I have a child who I love, but my heart has a hole for another.”
The Pain of Miscarriage
“I’m terrified if I get pregnant again and have another miscarriage I will add ‘recurrent miscarriage’ to the already long list of my infertility diagnosis”
Pregnant For One Week
“I was pregnant for 7 days and 7 nights. After doing my one billionth cycle of IVF, I had my first positive HCG. After 42 and a half years I was finally pregnant.”
“I Wish I Had Never Given My Baby a Name”
“I calculated that I'd be due on May the 4th, so I nicknamed him/her ‘Baby Yoda.’ I thought that was so cute. I wish I had never given my baby a name.”
Hiding In My Bed
“I've been down this route before but every single time my soul dies a little more And the world keeps on turning And somehow I will move on.”
Don’t Call Me Strong
“I’d rather never be called strong or resilient again By never having to prove I haven’t yet been broken Does it prove weakness when your strength is not tested.”
Miscarriage Insight
“I’m realizing… of course the loss was extremely painful. But that pregnancy, as short as it was, was a real blessing in my life.”
