Having a Rough Day

Jun 19, 2009 05:14PM - 4 comments

I'm moving tomorrow into the house that i hope we are able to buy and i cannot wait, i am super excited. But i did not know how tough it was going to be putting away Aidyn's bedding. I have been putting it off all week knowing i was going to have to do it before tomorrow so i must have known deep down it was going to hurt but the second i started untying the bumper i started crying. For the obvious reasons, im upset because i wont be setting it up again, i will be putting it away. For another reason i guess, he no longer has a room. He doesnt have his own place. We did a shadow box, that i just finished like 2 weeks ago and planned on putting up pictures after we moved, and have a wall that will be his wall in our loft that i will be putting his name plate that i painted (its in one of the nursery pictures) the shadow box, a picture frame that has all of his ultrasound pictures in, and a shelf for all of his stuff that was too big or too heavy for the shadow box. My goal was to get it all up and take a picture to share with everyone. After we move, this chapter is finally closed. It didnt take finding out we were going to have another baby, or making it past where everything happened with Aidyn, its now, after taking away the only thing left that was just his. I havent put anything in his room for Bryce. Everything in there (of course although most of it will be passed to Bryce) is all Aidyn's stuff. The only other thing that will remain his and his alone is his birthday. As some of you know, i am due September 30th, i had Aidyn September 28th. We talked to my ob and i will be induced by September 21st if i have not already started going into labor. Its not that we didnt want our boys to have the same birthday, we just want Aidyn to have something of his own. Nor do we want to be in the hospital the same time i was last year. Its already going to be a nightmare until i have Bryce in my arms, alive and moving and crying, and looking into my eyes. Until that moment, i know i will be a mess just waiting for something to go wrong because that it all i have to base my last stay on.

And now that i am here feeling how i am right now, hopefully someone can shed some light that was in a similar situation. I am so scared, and i have not told anyone this expect my best friend, not even Jason, that i am going to feel guilty with Bryce. I dont know why and things may change once he is actually here but when i talk to him now, i sometimes feel bad, like i am putting Aidyn to the side all because i have a new baby on the way. We go visit Aidyn, usually every 2 weeks, but sometimes more and anytime we are in the area or the cemetery is on our way home. We still go in EVERY NIGHT and squeeze his little angel that Noela, Ray and Zeva (Zevasmom) sent us and say good night. We have not missed a single night since we opened the door to his room about a week after i came home from the hospital. We take his angel with us when we go out of town. I go in EVERY morning and open his blinds and say good morning. I wont get to do that anymore. It hurts. Knowing he really is physically gone!! It does get easier dealing with the pain but the pain does not get lighter and today more then any other day in a long time does that really mean true!!!!  I think i need to just go take a nap!! Maybe he will visit me and let me know things are ok and will be ok!!

Aidyn i love you and miss you so much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I seriously had to hold back from crying when I read this. Amberlee, it will all be okay. These things take time...and there is no reason to feel guilty about being in love with Bryce....thats a natural mother feeling..and Aidyn knows that he has that with you also. Hang in there girl.....once you hold Bryce...your life will feel so much better!!! I cannot imagine losing a baby as far along as you were! I thank god every day for Sarah...and I am praying every day that this new pregnancy makes it through to the end.. Thats all we can do, is pray!

Aidyn is such a beautiful name....there are so many things I want to say to you.  Aidyn will always be with you, he is a part of you. He will be your angel for the rest of your life until you hold him in your arms again. Don't put his things away if you don't want to...keep pictures or whatever you want up to show that is important for you. Talk to him all you want, he's there with you. Bryce will come along and you will take him into your arms and you will melt with the same love you have for Aidyn. It will be Bryce's love for you that will feel different and wonderful. Does that make sense? I lost my daughter she was 21 yrs old and I had a miscarriage when I was 29 yrs old both will never be forgotten and both I love with as much love as the love I have for my children that are alive now. I will never miss a day that I don't think of them or say Hello when a song or a memory comes by. The pain never goes away, it does lessen at times and the memory is just as strong as the day it happened always. But you learn to remember the good memories and you cherish  the warm moments even if they were very few. You hold onto a few things to be able to go and touch them again as if you might forget but you never do, how could you, you are their Mommy and they are your Baby no matter how old they were when you lost them. I became pregnant with my son Austin who is now 19 yrs old one year to the day after I lost my baby at 9 weeks and I swear that baby was a boy and he came back with the same spirit to be Austin. Austin is such a sweet, gentle and kind person I just feel blessed. Lori my 21 yr old I lost was the same gentle spirit and I believe she was here to teach me and others and then it was time to go because she had gotten so much done in such a short time. Aidyn has become your angel and now he will always be right by your side to hug you whenever you want. They are all Blessings and Beautiful spirits!

I don't know how it feels to loose a child. My husband and I have been TTC for 4 years. I do know that I would probably feel like you do if I were in your shoes b/c after being diagnosed with PCOS, I've been living with the fear that I would not hear the word's "Mommy"ever be told to me. When I read your profile and this posting, I couldn't help but to tear and try to understand your pain. God made us all in a very unique way...and you are very unique....You've been through a lot at such a young age. Like you, I'm also young and going through a lot as well...but I'm trying my best to be strong...I know it's easier said than done...but we have no choice but to be strong...and stay strong. So try to be strong for the little angel who is in heaven now...and the other little angel who will be with you on earth. You are blessed to have now 2 angels in your heart and always with you. Take good care of yourself and lean on God and your husband for support whenever you can't find the strength to post your feelings, experiences, and overall emotions on this wonderful and supportive website.
