How to celebrate the due date of my angel?!?

Brielle's due date is tomorrow Wednesday, December 11, 2013. I lost her on July 12, 2013 to a 2nd trimester miscarriage due to cervical incompetence. I didn't think it would hurt so bad that I'm not pregnant. Sometimes I try to erase it from my mind like it didn't happen. Then I open my photos on my phone and see her angelic picture and it brings me back to reality. This day as well as July 12, November 29, and December 1 will always be etched in my heart as days my children were due and days they earned their wings.


How to celebrate the due date of your angel?


I plan to celebrate Brielle tomorrow by finally completing her and BJs shadow box of memories. I'm going to have a few pictures printed of her to go into this shadow box. The pictures the hospital took and the few pictures on my phone are the only memories I have of both my babies and I want to honor them. Once I finish the shadow boxes I plan to hang them in my baby room/my office. There are so many other ways to celebrate the due date of your lost baby, you can light a candle, hang balloons on your mailbox, write messages on balloons and release them to heaven, or even create a new memory or tradition for the holiday season.




Us honoring BJ last weekend for his 1st Birthday! We made wishes and blew out the candles.

I want to always honor my babies, but I can be honest and say I want one living, growing, and healthy baby here with me. I don't want to celebrate the birth/death dates or due dates of any of my future pregnancies. I've made up my mind and I have faith that this will come to pass! I made myself a promise that I would go my entire 28th year not pregnant, I turn 29 next July 17, 2014. I knew her due date would come, but I didn't think I would want to try again so soon. Stay tuned....


Keep the Faith!


Until next time,

  1. Your blog is wonderful, I know sharing your experiences with others has helped many. The hardest things in the world are the things that break people apart and cause a lot of them to shut down and shut the world out, where you have done the opposite. You have took your heart breaking experience and opened yourself to the world. I hope you realize that you reach people with your blog and that your making a difference in places you don't even realize. <3
