Ginevra Posted May 6, 2011 Share Posted May 6, 2011 My daughter who died at birth. :angelsad2: I just want to say it, to put it out there. It's so internal at this point; it's weird walking around thinking it's Lydia's birthday when hardly anyone else is aware of it. Today I was looking at a boy at our co-op who was born just before Lydia. I was staring at him, marveling that she would be that big, she would be eating lunch and laughing with her buddies. I just really want to see her again someday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ginevra Posted May 6, 2011 Author Share Posted May 6, 2011 I'm so sorry. That just sucks. Do you have any special memories of her you'd like to share? I'd love to hear about your pregnancy. Thank you and thanks to everyone with hugs and nice thoughts. At birth she looked like ds11; they were also my two 9-pounders. So, when I imagine what she would look like now, I picture her as a girl version of CW. Her name is so precious to me. DH and I agreed 100% on her name - Lydia Clare. She shares initials with my mother, who is also "L.C." and those initials also mimic my grandmother's name, Elsie, who died in April just before Lydia's birth. Those are my most special thoughts. :001_smile: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Capt_Uhura Posted May 6, 2011 Share Posted May 6, 2011 :grouphug: I too know your pain. My Aunt (she's only 4yrs older) and I were pregnant at the same time and due only a month apart. It's been 12 years but whenever she calls and talks about her DD, I wonder what my Matthew would have been doing. It's amazing how much these little ones touch our lives before they are even born.
