Mummy-less Mummies

Huge hugs to you, and I kind of know how you are feeling,  my poppa passed away in Dec 2005 and he was my whole world, we were ttc when he got sick just so he could at least know I was pregnant, but it didn't happen,

But I understand that whole emotion of knowing you are going to have this amazing little baby, and the most important person in your world is never going to meet them, and it hurts, I spent most of my pregnancy greiving for him, but after Ethan was born there were a few moments of being devestated they would never meet, but Ethan is so much like he was, it is almost as though he is back here with me.

I have never really been a spiritual kind of person, believing in angels or people watching over me, but sometimes I really do feel him near me, especially when Ethan just seems to stare into space at nothing, then start smiling and talking to nothing, and I think thats when poppa is here, just checking up.

Hope you feel better soon,

also teaching your children about your mum on mothers day might be special too.....

i believe in angels and know ella is being watched by someone - just who has the job is not known to us...there are several options....i am sure she is watching over your little one....

on another note - do you have a close friend of your mums etc that is special to you? if so why not send them a card etc for mothers day to let them know you think they are special in your life?

Big hugs to you My DH lost his dad suddenly when I was almost 3 months pregnant and it has been hard for him too ( I know it was especially on fathers day as well).

My Best friend told me after that my bubs was lucky as she got to meet her granddad before she was born - which both of us found really comforting! I know he would've had a shock that she is a she not a he. And he would've loved her to pieces (DH is one of 3 boys so no girls in his family), and I know that he is watching over her. I believe in what Thunderwolves said - they are there, keeping an eye on things and how we are all going.

We often go and put flowers at his headstone, and I have a wee talk to him (in my head), but its good to have a good cry!!! And bombshells idea of teaching and talking to you children on Mothers day is a lovely idea - keeps her spirit alive in a special way and helps you to remember those special times you shared.

Big hugs Glow We are all thinking of you!!!!

All I can do is send big  your way.
