[millwrght4ever]

my daughter was 37 weeks but had IUGR. so she weighed 3lbs.11oz. her apgar at birth was 1 and after 10 minutes it was 3 then 10minutes later it was 9.she just barely made it. then it was touch and go as she had apnea.she is my only one i have had numerous miscarriages I thank God I have her. But, this struggle is very hard.And one no one should ever have to make. leaving the hospital wondering whether or not she is going to make it and i could get the call any minute

beautiful tribute .... kisses from Brazil to the family of this beautiful child, God bless daddy and mommy ................... be with God

[hplexmark1]

my aunt had a still born daughter 50 years ago...she never, ever forgot her...but back then, it was more "private", but she told me she had a kind nurse who, after the doctors had left, and the room was quiet, gave her baby to her to hold ( wasn't common practice back then) and my uncle got to hold her too( back then, a lot of fathers never even got to see their still born babies.

[millwrght4ever]

@hplexmark1 I don't think back then they even let the father's in the delivery room.It was very institutional like.they were very fortunate. my grandmother had a girl that was born still and by the time the drugs wore off the baby had been buried and my grandmother really never had any closure.When she passed she wanted the baby moved with her we tried but, had to have a court order to have her exhumed and moved. we lost. but, at least we tried.

[jorandle88]

AM CRYIN IF THIS HAPPEN YO ME I WILL GO INSANE

[TRUETIGER010300]

i am crying bit only because my little brother passed

[BrittanyLatham55]

My first pregnancy ending in a miscarriage at 11 weeks. It hurt so bad. I cried for weeks and still to this think about what my baby would have looked like. It was not even four months before I was pregnant again. We did not plan to get pregnant. I had an emergency c section at 33weeks and 1 day. My doctor told me they found out I had only half a uterus and one ovary. They informed me that it was amazing I got pregnant in the first place. I will never be able to carry a baby full term

[BrittanyLatham55]

@BrittanyLatham55 My doctor also informed me I have 75% chance of miscarrying any child I conceive.

I thank God for both of my babies. I thankful for the 11 weeks I got to carry my angel, and for the two months so far with my little girl.

[mebeinme22]

[wolfpackr552]

My cousin was also born prematurely at 29 weeks; she is now 2 years old. I cannot imagine what it would have been like had I lost her.

You are some very brave folks. May God watch over you and your little man.

[TheLilMissKK]

I wish I got to hold my precious little angel in my arms for at least a little bit but at least we got to feel her :) and we know that we have an angel up there in heaven watching over us! She was taken from us on December 23rd 2010. The Holidays have been especially hard this past year just knowing what could've been but we manage and we love and miss her dearly but at least we have an angel up there! R.I.P. Peighton Leigh-Ann Hall and to all the other little angels out there!

[longgonebaby]

From a mother and a grandmother, your video was brave beyond belief. I sit here in tears, mourning the loss of a precious little and admiring the love and bravery you and your husband have shown. Congratulations on your new baby and may you be blessed.

[SJKidsNyuki]

My nephew is born at 29 week and when i first saw him i started to cry and his mother told me " at least we loved him " , i couldn't endure it..i was devastated but he survived,doctors said that he was no able to live but he did it ...because of this childbirth my sister ( his mother ) cannot give life anymore , my nephew is kind a miracle for her ...She told me after she already had a miscarriage

i admire my sister for her bravery and i admire you too , this is really hard to live , RIP Dexter

[milkblossom]

@SJKidsNyuki Thank you for your comment. I am glad your nephew survived. Most babies have a good chance at 29 weeks due to medical technology. Dexter's little brother, Milo, was born this year also at 29 weeks but he made it & is now almost 6 months old.

[surrender21]

Your happily ever after was being able to spend what time you did with him!! I pray Gods comfort and peace with you and your family!

[MobbadFlikka]

R.I.P from sweden

[Shootersgirl1976]

Sending love to you and your family in memory of your beautiful Dexter. What was his cause of death if you don't mind me asking? Was is respiratory?

[milkblossom]

@Shootersgirl1976 His lungs just wouldn't expand enough despite valiant efforts on behalf of the NICU staff. Due to that, his brain didn't get enough oxygen & he was pronounced brain dead after a brain bleed that caused him to slip into a coma. We chose to remove him from life support after getting scans to make sure there was no brain activity.

[AbbyAshton]

Beautiful, beautiful tribute!!! He is gorgeous! This needs to be more widely known, and people should never be afraid to talk about it, because it can happen to anyone. Because it happened to me, and losing my son was the last thing on my mind. Thank you for sharing your story and spreading awareness.
