Hi
My name is Jen. I am 37 and married to a wonderful man, Eric. We lost our daughter to stillbirth on October 17, 2007. We had no idea until we were in the hospital and in labor. They couldn't find her heartbeat. I think that was the most heartbreaking news I have ever heard in my life so far. She was born at 39.5 weeks just 3 days before her due date. We have a 7 year old son named Zach. I feel like I will not be able to have more because the devastating loss of our daughter will always be on my mind and with me suffering from depression already, and have for years, I will just shut down.
I am hoping that this will help someone else. I am very interested in helping another mom/family with their loss as well as being someone who would love to bring more awareness here in the U.S.A.
Hope to talk soon,
Jen Nielsen

Hi, my baby girl was born sleeping on March 26th 2009 after 3 days of waiting for an induction to work. With 2 beautiful daughters already at home, Tilly was to be our 3rd little girl. My world was blown apart when I lost her and although it's almost a year now the pain is still as raw. I hope that by sharing my story with someone else we can help each other step forward. Thanks x

I lost my baby girl Chelsey on 13th February 2000. I was 25 weeks pregnant. I am happily married. After six months of losing Chelsey we began trying for another baby and eighteen months later I had my beautiful daughter Samantha. Chelsey was stillborn after I suffered a placental abruption.

Hi Everyone
I lost my beautiful son Oliver James on the 21st Feb 2010. My waters broke at 15 and 2 days without any cause and i gave birth a week later at 16 weeks and 2 days. I never imagined life could be so cruel. The time i spent with Oliver after his birth will be cherished forever.I know some people choose not to see their baby but i couldnt take my eyes off my beautiful angel. People have said to me time is a healer but i dont want to heal or forget or move on i feel i cant. I have a 5 year old son who always mentions his brother and we talk about him everyday. I want to try again but i am so scared of the same thing happening again to me. It would be nice to get in contact with someone who may be experiencing the same feelings as me.
God bless all our little angels.

Hi my name is Lucy, Im 29 and I live in South East London. I have been with my partner for the past 12 yrs.
Bobby is our first baby after taking over 2 yrs to concieve.
Our waters broke (PPROM) at 19+5 weeks due to an infection and we spent 10 days in hospital. (At least I will always remember where I was when MJ died lol)
We were sent home on medication and told to come back twice a week for blood tests to monitor the infection. After being at home for a week I started to bleed - It ended up being due to a Low lying Placenta which didnt help matters.
I woke on the 2nd July 2009 to find that his cord had prolapsed and we were taken to hospital. We got there at 7:30am and were left in a room on our own. He was pronouced dead at 10:20am via scan although I know in my heart that he died at 8:45am as I had a massive panick attack at that time and just didnt 'feel right'.
I was induced for labour and our little red man was born at 5:48am on Friday 3rd July 2009 weighing 1lb 1oz at 22+2 weeks. In my Mums words at the birth - "he has very big feet and hands and long legs". :)
We were casually 'trying' again until last month but we have made the choice to put it on hold until 2011. I am at a place in my mind now where I have 'accepted' what has happened and i am at peace with it. I am finally able to concentrate on other things in our life, knowing full well that he is and always will be looking over my shoulder egging me on.
The reason I have put my name down for the PenPal is simply because not matter how long ago it happened or no matter what 'stage' you are at in your grief, there will always be the need to talk it over with someone who really does know how you feel. Ok everyones story is different but we all have something in common and that is that we are part of a very very special group; where only the best Mummies have access to :O)
It would also be nice to speak to those who are not finding it so easy to 'cope' and 'accept' what has happened. IMO there is always light at the end of the tunnel eventually. Time is a great thing.
