We spent Xmas going back and forwards to the hospital, and despite the worry and the trauma we still managed to have a happy xmas - and the staff were wonderful. Yesterday, I showed a Xmas the card that he had sent us - aged 5 days. Made by the staff it had a foot print and a polaroid print - it is very special. But yes, Xmas can be very difficult, after the loss of a baby. Our was born on the 1st of November, and the Xmas after was so difficult, as I should have been pregnant - and the missing element of that day was very palpable. However, with support of our friends and family we got through it, and enjoyed it in a rather subdued way. Debbie Slater Perth, WA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
