Re: [SHARE Atlanta Subsequent Pregnancy Support] New to Group
Maya
I got pregnant soon after my loss of my twins Nicholas & Maylin (wasn't planned) and it was w/ twins again. It was very difficult in the beginning, there was even times that I reffered to my new babies by the names of my baby angels and I felt extremely guilty. I also felt detachment... I soon realized that it was all fear. It takes over u and u r afraid to love ur new baby while pregnant. So i just decided that I would cry and let the fear go.
My family was very supportive, since they were handling the grief differently they were able to enjoy my pregnancy and I tried my best to look at it through their eyes. That helped a little... prayers also helped alot. When I gave birth it was a new set of emotions ( I recently gave birth to them prematurely July 4th 2009, after being hospitalized on bedrest) and I'm trying to focus by making lists and journals of my emotions and accepting that I have earned the right to cry whenever I want and my recent delivery is a gift. When I see them I see my lost but I also see/feel love like no other and its even stronger because of what I went thru w/ the loss Of Nicholas and Maylin. I hope this makes sense and helps...

Hi Everyone,
I'm new to this group. I lost my son Gabrielle at 17 weeks on 4.17.07 due to multiple uterine fibroids. I am currently 17 weeks into my subsequent pregnancy and am on bedrest until next week.
I feel like I haven't really bonded with this baby and am really concerned if that is normal. Everytime I begin to get a little excited something happens that makes me feel as if this pregnancy won't make it either. And this pregnancy has made me miss my Gabrielle even more. And I begin to have this incredible guilt that just washes over me when I begin to actually enjoy this pregnancy.
Did anyone else experience any feelings like this?
Maya
PS-Oddly enough, I've begun listening to music and singing again and I haven't really sang since Gabrielle died. It actually makes me feel better. And when I sing, every now and then I will feel this baby move.
