    Bree-Ana,

    What I have done for my little Nikita was to buy a charm bracelet. I keep it in her Urn and every year for her birthday I plan on buying a charm. It has an ID plate on it so I had her name on one side and on the underside I did her birth date and angel date (she was 8 days old when she died).

    I don't wear the bracelet, it is not on display, its just a little something to commemorate her birth and is something just from mother to daughter.

    That is a precious idea Nae.
    Really it is.
    I'm planning what I want to do off all these ideas I'm getting.
    Thank you all so much.

    Its so hard to plan something for her when I want it to be just.. Perfect.

    But thank you all!

    Well guys, tomorrow is the day I was hoping would never come.
    October 15th.
    The day my daughter would have been to me safely in my arms.
    Tomorrow's going to be even harder with having to see the baby's father at school as well.
    *sigh* it just isn't fair.
    How do I cope well?!

    Hi breeana,you'll cope as best as you can,that's all any of us grieving &missing our babies can do ,they're so wonderful to think about but so hard not to have them in our arms,thinking of you & your precious little one.I find comfort in the fact that i believe death ends a life not a relationship.hugs.

    Thank you.
    I know I've had a few friends come up to me and give me some hugs.
    Which is nice but it also just makes me want to break down and cry.
    Its hard knowing that the father is right in front of me and everything, knowing that my daughter would have had his eyes, it makes me want to look at him and at his eyes. Even though I know it will make me cry.
    I think he knows what today is but I don't think he wants to acknowledge it all that much really cause I know he was afraid during the time I was pregnant.
    But yeah, its hard.
    I empathize with all women that have lost a daughter or a son.
    I hate the pain and the memories and also the "what ifs" thoughts.
    Those are what gets me the most sometimes aye.

    Yeah that's pretty much how I feel really.
    Like yesterday and today that's all I could really think about.
    Its even harder when I want the father to say something to me but he never did.

    I still haven't really cried since the day I found out and I went to tell the baby's grandfather.
    But i can still feel my heart being broken.

    By the way, if its easier talking, email me.
