In an hour I have to meet with the funeral man about putting my sweet littel baby in the ground

I don't think I can survive this

  1. I am so sorry about the loss of your darling baby Paige. It is supremely unfair for a mother to have to bury her son. Love and prayers for you both.

  2. Hi Paige, I am here from inBetween's blog, and wanted to tell you how utterly sorry I am, and how much my heart hurts for you right now. This is the most unfair and horrible thing that can ever happen to a woman. I am wishing you all the strength and endurance that you can gather to help you through your grief. It is just so so terribly unfair and wrong, and I wish there was something more I could do.

  3. This is beyond tragic and an abundantly difficult time. I hope you have friends/family who will help attend to some of the details (I went through this with a friend who lost her twin boys, born too soon, and we attended to a number of details for her and her husband, things no mother should have to endure).

    You must survive even through the deep darkness of these early days. One minute at a time.

  7. I am coming from LAFCA. I read this post and the few posts before. How awful to be at the height of elation and then to be hit was the most tragic loss. I am so very sorry for your loss.

  8. Paige you will take good care of him now, just as you always have. He has always had his perfect Momma looking out for him.

    He is a very loved baby.

    I am thinking of you Paige. If only I knew how to help. I remember those days. There is no light, no air. You are not alone for one second.

  18. Dearest Paige - I am deeply sorry for the tragedy of your loss. I also lost my baby - unexplained stillbirth at 37weeks 5 days. I too, buried my beloved child and it was a horrible, dark time for my husband and I. I understand what you are facing and I am so deeply sorry. If you need someone to talk to, please feel free to contact me through my blog - my name should link you to my site. A great resource for us was www.missfoundation.org
    Sending you much love and peace.

  27. i know how you are feeling, and this is the worst of it. use the love of your friends and family to carry you thru this dark, horrible time, and know that your son will always be with you- nothing will ever change that, you are his loving momma and he will never be forgotten. its so hard to say goodbye in this way, when you wanted a lifetime... but he was so loved and that will never change. here is a poem that very much helped me-

    late fragment, by raymond carver

    and did you get what
    you wanted from this life, even so?
    i did.
    and what did you want?
    to call myself beloved, to feel myself
    beloved on the earth.

    your son was so beloved. please take care and be gentle with yourself.

  28. Hi Paige. I found your blog thanks to Maddie over at Late for a Very Important Pregnancy. There are no words to adequately convey just how much my heart aches for you. You will absolutely be in my thoughts and prayers. I know that the thought of tomorrow is simply too much right now so please be gentle with yourself and just take it day by day or even hour by hour if you need to. You are not alone hon. XX

  31. I can't remember which blog I linked from but I wanted to come by and send you a hug. You will survive this, one minute, one hour, and one day at a time. When I lost my son it was so hard to just keep breathing. Eventually it got a little easier. Now it has been nearly a year, and although I'm not the same person I was, I can laugh and look forward to things. I am so, so very sorry you don't have your little boy with you and I hope you have some people to lean on with you.

  32. I cannot say enough how sorry I am.
    When I lost my babies, I found it helpful to have something tangible I could wear to feel them with me.
    When you are ready, this artist makes beautiful, heartfelt pieces to honor your little one. I wear my footprints on a mothers' heart necklace all the time.

  33. Hi Paige, I am Nell's roommate and she told me about you and this sad situation. I know I don't know you, but just wanted you to know that I am praying for you. The joy of the Lord is your strength. Take it one day at a time, one hour at a time, one minute at a time and know that you are loved. <3

  37. I'm here via Batty Nurse's blog (and via LFCA)

    I am so very sorry for your heartbreaking loss. To lose your baby son like this is tragic. So unfair. Devastating.

    You are in my thoughts as is your little angel.

  38. Here via LFCA. I'm so terribly sorry for the loss of your son, no one should have to endure this type of pain. Life is painful unfair at times. Please know that you are not alone, there are so many of us sending thoughts and prayers your way. My husband & I lost our daughter 23wks into my pregnancy about 5mths ago and I too never thought I could recover. Although it isn't easy and I still miss her every day, in time you find a way to move forward. Praying you are given the strength you need to get through each day.

  39. The cruellest blow is for your baby to die - I know your pain. You can survive this most gruelling of times by living for your precious baby boy - he would want his mum to find a path to happiness again. For now though,one moment at a time and lean on those who love you. We all grieve for the life of your wee boy. I am so very sorry.

  40. I wish with all my heart we could take this pain away. While you may not feel it now, you will find the strength to make it through, one day at a time, one minute at a time. Your family and friends (including those of us here) will be here to help carry you. And I truly believe your son is now your guardian angel, with you for all time.
    Much love and strength to you, especially in these coming days.
