Today is 2nd year aniversiry of my still born son, I came looking for support and I am glad I came! My son was born at 21 weeks and the pictures we have I hold sacred! I cant display them due to their "scary" nature and the fact I have older children that would be effect by them. I have chosen instead to display a picture of Christ holding a baby. I like to imagine that the baby is mine and that he is holding him until I have finished my work here on earth. I know that may be to much religion for some but it comforts me. To me, that is my picture of him! I miss him!

I have gone on to have a health son almost 5 months ago, he has helped the healing but he doesn't take the place of the child I've lost!

My heart goes out to all of the parents here, that like me miss and love a child that they never got a chance to hold alive. I like so many of you, the ultra sound pictures are more valuable then gold!
