I'm having a really tough time at the moment.

7 years ago i was in labour with my son 'Kieran' who was sadly stillborn.

He should be here having his 7th birthday tomorrow.

I miss him so much, i feel awful today.

God bless sweetheart. xx

fussymummy so sorry to hear that you lost your little boy. The strength of women on hear who have lost children never fails to amaze me.

MN has taught me alot.

Thinking of you and your family today.

Hi fussymummy,

I am thinking of you and Kieran today. You are an inspiration to me not to give up. Kieran has got a very beautiful mummy, who loves him very much. The flowers, toys and ballons sound really nice and fitting. I think we have over done Bertie's grave! The vicar will be after us soon.

If you want to talk you know my email address. I will light a candle at Bertie's church for Kieran.

In regards to the family, although I have not lived through an anniversary yet, mine are finding it hard to talk about Bertie, as they think it is best not to upset me. Sometimes people care too much and don't speak from their hearts...Does not mean that they don't care and love Kieran, I think sometimes families find it very hard..that is something Im learning to accept.

Sending you and your family much love... Kieran born sleeping to be a beautiful angel...XXX

All my love Sarah X

Rahrah hi there. I remember your thread about your darling son

It's good to see you are still around on MN and that you have the strength to offer advice and support to other women in your position.

rahrah1 · 13/01/2007 14:37

What wonderful and amazing women you are.

Fussymummy, thinking of you today. And all the ladies who have lost a precious baby.
It was my 1st dd Lily's birthday yesterday - she would have been 9, but she was born prematurely and died at 3 days old. It was tough yesterday - we didn't go to the cemetery, it's so cold and sad this time of year. Feeling happier today, I think the run up to the 12th Jan is worse TBH. I will go to visit when it's a nice and sunny spring morning and take some flowers. The candle by the photo is a lovely idea Myermay, might do it tonight before bedtime

Rahrah, things must be so sad and raw for you, my heart goes out to you, that first year after Lily died was so awful, things have got so much better with time and the anniversaries that pass get easier, not as sad now, kind of a time for reflecting and rememberance. Love to you and Bertie x

fussymummy · 13/01/2007 18:32

Thankyou so much to all of you.

It's so nice to have so many kind words and so much support.

I can honestly say this is the first year that i haven't felt alone. So a huge thankyou agagin! Really makes a difference to me.

I know how hard things are for you and i'll be in touch soon.

Also, thinking of all the other mummys who've lost their little angels as well. xxxx
