My Son's 1st Birthday :(

In exactly one week it will be my sons 1st birthday. He was alive for only 9 days in the NICU. I am dreading this whole month. A lot of painful days coming up that is just too hard to bear. I am so tired. I don't know how I am going to make it through this month. I just want to crawl in a hole. I should be preparing for my baby's big birthday party with our family and friends. Instead I am having to decorate his tombstone at the cemetary. A mother shouldn't have to bury her child. Life is so unfair. Every week it seems, I find out someone else I know just had a baby or is pregnant. Most of these women are younger than me and are just graduating high school. What did I do wrong? Why can't I get one healthy child? Instead my children die. It isn't right. I miss my children so much. All I want in life is to be a mother and it just isn't happening. I feel empty without my children.

I'm so sorry for your loss. I agree no parent should ever have to say goodbye to their child! I hope your day isn't all bad, try to remember good things about being pregnant and the short time you got to spend with him. Do something to honor him on that day. And I hate seeing women that are pregnant and should not be, especially ones that don't want a baby! I ask everyday why me? Why couldn't I keep my son and they can get pregnant, do whatever they want, and has healthy and happy babies?!

I'm so incredibly sorry for your loss. I will say a prayer for you now. I agree with LostHim - find a way to honor him next week and be gentle with yourself.

I'm very sorry for your loss. My sons first birthday would be this month also, the 25th. As this day is approaching I feel worse. I know exactly how you feel. Just today I was with my family for the holiday and I couldn't help but think of how my son should be here and I should be teaching him how to walk around this time. It's breaking my heart. I'm here if you need someone to talk to.

thank-you for your kind words. 4th of July was very hard. I was being rushed to the hospital because I was going into labor on the 4th of July last year. They were able to stop the contractions for only 5 days. I am just so sad and tired.
