Having problems with message search?
Hi Angie,
I remember you. Sorry it took me so long to write back. I just wanted to say Thank you and Congrats to you. I am so happy for you. Wow 4th of July babies...fireworks every year for them! Are they home yet? Yes sometimes I see Gabrielle when I see these ultrasound pics of the new baby but I think only until here recently have I accepted that this new baby is indeed a gift. I will like you give myself a pass to cry and to just feel whatever I need to feel....I've earned it!

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...
