[Slobberchops]

Just wanted to say hi to you,Nicole and Dale,thinking of you all still at this very sad time,Nicole going back to work will probably be a good thing,she will be emotionally fragile for a while yet,but the pain does go away,believe me,just need to give it time.You will never forget your grandbaby,he/she will always be in your heart

Slobberchops: You will never forget your grandbaby,he/she will always be in your heart.

That was so very sweet of you. Yes he/she was my grandbaby even though he/she only survived up to 10 weeks or less. I want to tell Nicole she has her own angel in heaven but not right yet as the pain is too raw. But as you said time will heal the pain. God Bless you for your thoughtfullness.

Oh my gosh, I just saw this post, my eyes are tearing and I have a lump in my throat. I am so sorry, I know how excited you were. Please convey my sympathy to your daughter and son-in-law, also. Time will make this wound heal as will bunches of Boxer kisses and wiggles. Sometimes I think they are the best therapy in the world! Again, I am so very sorry for you and your family's loss. Hugs....

I am so sorry for your loss. It is so hard to lose a baby. I lost my baby 15 yrs ago. I was 41 when I found out I was pregnant and it was a real shock at first. I was 4 months when I lost the baby. My husband and I were just getting used to having a baby at our age. All of our children were grown. My daughter lost a baby a couple of yrs ago. It was really hard on all of the family. You try to be strong for them but it is very hard when you cant stop crying yourself. Your family is in my prayers..Hugs Linda

Linda, I can't imagine losing a baby at that stage. It must have been just so very painful. I too miscarried but much earlier on. I know the pain but when it's our children that are suffering it makes it so much harder as you already know. We want to take their pain away. I hope your daughter went on to have a healthy baby. My worry for Nicole is that she might miscarry again. Hopefully not. Your hugs are appreciated big time.

Still sending you hugs!!
In the future, not right now, you can tell Nicole that just because she miscarried once does not make her more apt to have another one. When I had my miscarriage at 13 weeks, almost a year ago, people used to tell me that I am still young and I could have another one. That made me furious! As you know even though the baby was not born, he/she is still VERY special! Another thing that still gets me through to this day is knowing that God needs angels of every age, and that ours was actually lucky to spend all of their days as a very special ANGEL. We named our baby Angel Lee. My husband and I have not been willing to try for another yet, because the pain is still so much. Just tell Nicole to take her time and always know that her baby is keeping watch of her!

I am so very sorry to learn of your miscarrage after carrying your baby for 13 weeks. I know what Nicole & Dale are going through. They are mourning a baby that was conceived and like you and your husband nothing anyone can say can make that pain go away. One day she is ok and the next thing she's all emotional again. I know first hand the pain and suffering as I miscarried myself and I want to take her pain away. One thing is that she calls me when she's all upset and we cry and chat and I think it helps her. It is still so very raw and only time can heal as you know. I think naming your baby was a beautiful thing to do and what an appropriate name your choose. I pray that both you and Nicole will someday be blessed with another full term baby. God Bless. Thank you for your thoughtful post. Very much appreciated. And yes you both have little angels watching over you.

To my friends at B.W. thank you all so much. This has been a very sad 10 days but things are returning to normal. Nicole is back to work - very hard first night but after the 3rd shift she was coping much better. Yesterday was her 27 birthday and we went out for supper. Her dad and I gave her a gift certificate for the spa. I thought that would be very comforting for her. She loved it. More than likely I'll be going too!! For now it's one day at a time and only time can heal the hurt and pain they are going through. She's back to the gym and out hiking with Abby. Exercise is so good for the mind and body. Thank you all for your prayers and kindness. I can't tell Nicole about your posts yet as it would only make her upset but down the road when she' s more strong I will give her a printout and let her read them. I know her and Dale will be so appreciative of all your thoughtfullness and sincerity. God Bless you all. You're all angels.

Gruntsmom: Thanks so much for your hugs. Being so far apart doesn't lessen the joy when one knows they are though about.
