I am a 34 year old outdoor loving woman living in Southern California. My boyfriend and I are from Australia and love to travel, snowboard and indulge in anything adventurous. We lost "Our Sam" on May 13th, and miss the thought of being a family in the usual way..though we know he will always be close to us and he will always be our son - Our Little Sam.

My Darling Sam,
You are on my mind every second - every moment of every day, especially right now, I am so aware that you are not here in my …

Hi My Handsome Sam,
Are you too busy playing with friends??? Not watching out for Mummy? You are meant to be sending me a little brother …
Oh no, I'm so sad to hear about your grandmother. I'm so glad to know that you are now by her side. I'm sure she is so happy to see you. Damn AF! Ugg, I so hope our turns are coming up soon. Damnit! This is so frustrating. As for January, I think we do need to plan on something. I would really really love to come see you too. I have the 1,2, and 3rd off. Snowboarding sounds like fun, but I have no gear or anything. Yes I know I live in Colorado. It's just not my thing. I will be happy to read and drink hot chocolate in the lodge while you go though, lol. Anyway, I hope you have a great time in London and we will talk soon. Big hugs and lots of love! xoxox
I have to say that you have been a very bright light in my world that is pretty dark sometimes, and I am happy to know that I help you a little too. :) Hang on to hope that Sam will send you happiness. xoxo
i meant i am in an emotional funk, not an emotional fun... oops
Oh thank you hun for the hug. I have been in an emotional fun this last week and have been so anti social. I am quite honestly a nervous wreck as I get closer to this baby being here. You know I would love if you would come and visit me in LA sometime. We can hit up some shops and go eat somewhere fabulous. Call me when you get back form your trip, and be safe and have fun! xo hugs
Thanks for the hug and I am so sorry your darling baby Sam isnt here with you. I didnt know about Bears of Hope (will contact). I will put other info in a msg to you, as I am still a bit spooked about the stalker "writer". Peace and hugs - Lee

On May 12th my boyfriend and I went for our monthly check up. I was 4 months pregnant and we were so excited to hear the heartbeat again. Everything with the pregnancy had been going well, symptoms right on target and a little tummy just starting to grow. I am 34 and my boyfriend is 37, we are active and healthy and our test results for genetic issues etc had come back sating that we were at the top of the healthy range with a 1 in 10,000 chance of any problems. We felt so safe and secure...as did our OBGYN...that is until a minute passed trying to find the heartbeat of our little angel...then another minute...we moved to the ultrasound machine, our doctor said that my uterus was long and the baby was probably just hiding down low....as each second passed, the air in the room went cold...we went cold...and finally our doctor said the words "Oh, sweetie, I am not finding a heartbeat..." We will NEVER forget that moment or those words. The following day I checked into Cottage Hospital in Santa Barbara, the staff and our friends were amazing and supported us through a very traumatic birth - to deliver our baby, knowing it was already gone was devastating...we feel like our compass has been shattered, like our time line is gone...our purpose is missing. We have driven north, no destination, just away - and I type this crying in a hotel bed in Marin County with my boyfriend at my side. We look online to try to understand what happened and sites like this help us find solace in the fact that others understand and share what we are going through. We want so much to try again soon but it has only been days...wish we could just sleep for a few months then try again - but then again, I know that our sweet baby Sam, deserves to be remembered and celebrated for the joy he bought us in this short time. I don't know what I hope for, I don't know what to do but I know that I am lucky to have my loving long-term boyfriend at my side - he is a pillar of strength for me - though I know he is barely holding on at times as well. Lost and confused - open and thankful for advice.
In May 2009, I delivered my beautiful son, Sam, a sleeping angel. I was just over 18 weeks and my heart aches for him every day. We have been cleared to try again - each month is hard when we get a negative : (
