"Too Beautiful for Earth" For Sylvie-Rose and all our Angel Children

For my darling Sylvie-Rose, taken from us just seven weeks after you were born. Too beautiful for this earth but I so wish you could have stayed nonetheless.
And for all the Mums walking this tough path. Let us link arms along the way and not be defeated by the cruel blow life has dealt us.

We do indeed x

No Wine for you ?

ILikeToMoveItMoveIt · 12/04/2012 18:08

Ello all

After I have been for a run I think I may be hitting the wine bottle. The Easter holidays have been fun but exhausting Grin

What's up with Shabs?

No wonder the holidays have been so long Shock

Hello Ilike , long time no speak , hows you ?

ILikeToMoveItMoveIt · 12/04/2012 18:28

Grim indeed everlong Smile I will never be in a bikini again, my stretch marks can probably be seen from space Grin The fat I can get rid of, the stretchmarks I can't!

I'm fine thanks TW. we've been busy over the hols, and there is still loads of things left on my to do list. Organise ds3 1st birthday, research and hopefully book a holiday - I seem to send fecking hours on t'internet looking at holidays but not actually booking anything Hmm

How's it going in the TW house?

Not too bad thanks Ilike , just the usual madness that two boys and a dh brings x

Bikini ? I would need to do some drastic starvationj to ever get in one of those again

ILikeToMoveItMoveIt · 12/04/2012 19:18

I think have 9lb+ and 11lb babies hasnt helped on the stretch mark front Grin

Maybe Cyprus in the next few months and maybe Italy in the Autumn. It's getting dh to take the time off which is the biggest obstacle Hmm

Funny what you say about looking good in a bikini. At 19 I was so insecure about how I looked and I now look back and wonder what on earth I was thinking. I was curvy compared to my slim friends but I actually looked good in a bikini,but thought I was fat. Whereas now I am actually just fat Grin

travellingwilbury · 12/04/2012 19:19

Me too Ilike , don't tell Shabs you are going to Cyprus , she will be trying to sneak into your case Grin

Good plan everlong you won't need to this year though Grin

We are making do with trips to annoy family , they are of course all delighted Grin

Whatevertheweather · 12/04/2012 21:25

Ooh holiday plans Smile We're off to center parcs next month. Can't flipping wait!!

K had a little friend from school over to play this afternoon. When her mum came to collect her she had her 6 week old baby daughter with her. Gorgeous little thing. K of course wanted a hold, I had to look away as the last baby she had on her knee was Erin. And K was playing with her fingers and toes just like she did with Erin. Only this baby was moving and reacting to her touch. Bought back some painful memories, was surprised at how much it affected me. I had a hold too, that was fine. Easier than seeing K with her.

Bluetinkerbell · 12/04/2012 21:37

wtw not long till K can hold her own little brother/sister...
E loves playing with other babies, she's always had a soft touch for them and is so caring!

frasersmummy · 12/04/2012 21:53

hey tw and ilike.. good to see you both

how can it be 8 years since I lost Fraser..how ?? 8 years ago tonight at some point frasers heart stopped

nights like tonight I am right back in that bloody room with that bloody scanner ..

as you were

Bluetinkerbell · 12/04/2012 21:58

fm big hugs for you! no words, just holding your hand x

MiaAlexandrasmummy · 12/04/2012 22:02

oh fm, those flashbacks are so tough to handle for me, and you've had eight years of them... I am so sorry. Thinking of you and Fraser tonight.

Lots of very confusing thoughts at the moment about being pg, I just don't know how I can be happy about this (and I am), while I am still missing Mia so much. Too much to fit into my head at the same time...

{{FM}} - I am (virtually) holding you close. Love to you and Fraser x

I remember those conflicting feelings well Mia. It is a very tough time. Such happiness, but much sadness and grief still. Am I having another child for the right reasons? Am I trying to replace my dc? In your heart of hearts you know that Mia cannot and will not be replaced.

CheeseandGherkins · 12/04/2012 22:41

fm huge hugs. 8 years for you but I bet it feels like yesterday at times. It does to me, I know eveyone's different though. Hope tonight is ok for youxx

Whatevertheweather · 12/04/2012 22:42

((FM)) thinking of you and Fraser xxx

Mias I totally understand. It is conflicting, I try and separate the grief and the joy in my mind as they are two separate emotions for two separate children. One can never replace the other xxxx

Blue I really really really hope so xx
