So today is the 6th of August and is my angel babies due date... I'm feeling quite down today and don't know whether this is normal, obviously I am pregnant again and am thrilled at that but it still doesn't seem to make this day easier... am I a bad person for thinking how much easier it would be if I just hadn't lost my first baby? This pregnancy has been pretty rough on me, I've been quite emotional, and am still getting fairly bad MS, and all I can think of is if I hadn't of lost my first baby it would almost be over and I would be holding my baby very soon. It felt like my heart broke when I miscarried and have felt like a little bit of me disappeared that day. Sorry for the big post just needed to get it out, luckily I do have a very supportive partner who understands how hard today is for me but still needed to vent.
Thanks for listening  -------------

As I sit and remember
When you were still a part of me I try to forget... Your life was never meant to be. You were given a life, a soul, a name But now things will never be the same. You were mine to give life to Though only for a while Things had changed... I will never see your smile. Yet my love for you Will never disappear Though your voice, your laugh, I will never get to hear. You will always be my baby Though I've never seen your face. Not a thing in this world Can ever take your place. Have just found this poem and thought it was very appropriate to how I am feeling. -------------

All your feelings are completely normal 
I often think about the babies I lost. But then I look at Hannah and realise that I wouldn't have her if I didn't lost the first two, and that thought breaks my heart. It won't be too much longer and you'll feel the same. The sadness of losing a baby won't leave you, but it will become a lot easier to deal with as time goes on

Thanks Girls really appreciate your support and I'm sure you guys are right and once this bub is here it'll get a bit easier... If only there was a way to fast forward time! Have had a bit of a cry after not managing to keep my breakfast or lunch down today... (ok a big cry not a bit of a cry) and I think that helped a little bit!! -------------
