Sarah - I am so sorry to hear about your loss. I lost my son Devan on 3/29/04 -
I was 31 weeks pregnant. The thought of going through the holiday's without my
baby is almost unbearable - we were so looking forward to him being here with
us. I still cry to this day when I see a baby, hear of someones joy in knowing
they are pregnant, etc. There is no "appropriate time" to stop grieving. You
can go back in the message board thread and see messages from women going back
some time, and later you might see them joyful as they have a healthy baby
later. Having this site available really helped me - even though I don't get on
as often as I did at first. If there is anything you need, let us know.

Hi everyone,

My name is Sarah and I'm new to the site. I've been registered for
a few days but had a really hard time trying to compose myself to
write my story. Firstly, I would like to say that I am truly sorry
for anyone who has lost a child, and congratulations to those who
are currently pregnant.

I lost my son on September 19, 2004 due to placenta abruption. It's
been terrible trying to cope. It doesn't feel like the days are
getting any easier but I don't cry out loud as much as I did when it
first happened. He was 24 weeks and born with a faint heartbeat. I
still cry to have him back and the closer I get to my due date, the
harder it is to deal with. I can't help but calculate how many
days, weeks or months I would be if I was still pregnant. I was
looking so forward to the new year, especially January 7 (his due
date). Now I am dreading the New Year, all my excitment is gone.

I was so shocked to find out that this chatroom existed. I actually
found it by accident while researching abruptions on the net. I am
hoping that I will be able to speak to those who are willing to chat
about abruptions or just want to talk about anything in general.

Take care

Sarah
