I just stumbled upon your blog. Yours is a heartbreaking story, yet full of hope. My son was a 28 week preemie with a 6 month NICU stay and 1.5 years with a trach. I think your foundation is an amazing way to honor your beautiful little girl’s memory. I also had extreme guilt about having my son prematurely, and every day I held him until his due date, I would think “I should still be protecting you”.
Congratulations on Binky and reaching 31 weeks. I always think making it to 35 weeks would be a huge accomplishment, although full-term would be ideal, of course . May the rest of your pregnancy be boring and uneventful…resulting in a beautiful, healthy baby!

The pictures are beautiful.
The guilt is insidious. I cried in the NICU so many times, apologizing every time something happened, whether it was a heel prick or just being woken to roll over when he’d looked so comfortable.
It doesn’t eat at me as much any more, but sometimes I get so angry. A few weeks ago he had a very mild cold, which of course lead to wheezing. He was crying in the middle of the night, clearly uncomfortable and I just had this white-hot flash of anger. IF MY BODY HADN’T FAILED HIM, HE”D BE SLEEPING PEACEFULLY RIGHT NOW.
The intensity of the thought actually surprised me. I’d thought I was over it. Obviously not.

When I read your words, I immediately nodded, then started to cry- for all of us.

It’s not fair.. to have to rely on a body who has let us down so much before.
Praying that this time it regains a bit of your trust.

Beautiful pregnant belly. I love the second photo with your hands shaped into a heart. I will continue to pray for Binky’s safe arrival and for you to have some peace of mind. <3

You are have the perfect belly – perfect to carry this lil’ binky to be healthy. I have been praying since I heard the news of your pregnancy!! And, the only shoe that will be dropping are your shoes since you can’t bend over to put them on anymore and you have to drop them on the floor and kinda scoot in them. Or, maybe that was only me (-:

And, I am with the others on the orb. As soon as I saw that picture, I gasp. I believe they are truly some sort of way our loved ones are talking to us. I have seen them in some of our pictures too after my dad’s passing. I know they were him and his way of saying he was still present.

I’ve never commented, though I’ve been reading for a long time. You seem swamped with plenty of people loving on you via comments! I just wanted to share this with you in case no one else has: http://www.tangle.com/stevencurtischapman

That’s a new cd put out by a singer that last his daughter last year. The cd is filled with grief and hope – it’s heart-breakingly beautiful but also difficult to listen to. I know you’ll relate… you should listen to “Cinderella” and “heaven is the face”

I agree, it’s okay to see the light at the end of this tunnel. She is coming and all will be well.
Just rest and relax. God Bless.

oh my goodness, no one, and I mean no one has rivaled my baby belly until NOW!!!! I can’t believe you just upped me miss Heather, I was so proud of that belly, when I was admitted to have Raina, they were inducing labor, the nurses were prepping me and one said to the other, oh look at this I hate these women with long torso’s, look not one stretch mark, she will have this baby and walk out of here with a flat belly and no stretch marks, tehe, and I did!!! It rocks to have a prefect baby belly and you do, I keep you in my thoughts daily, I never go one day without thinking how you are? wondering if your ok? wondering how Binky is doing? Thanks for the updates I know your getting to where your not going to feel like it now, but you don’t know what they mean to us all, you and your amazing family, that I have feel in love with through the words in these blogs, who knew the true power of words!!!! Keep your head held high you so have earned it!!!! Binks hug mom, you are getting such awesome parents and who could ask for more than the sweet, beautiful Maddie for a big sis!!!! you are a blessed little baby!!! take care all!!! strength to you and virtual hugs whenever you need them!!! We all care so much you will never know!!! I do believe that she is always with you no matter what, she will be there, some things we just cannot understand, maybe we weren’t meant to, I wish I could make it perfect, I really do!!!
