Hammi - I was going to let you all know the other day about Mel's baby Joshua but I couldn't bring myself to. As you can see the passing of Joshua after just 1 week on this earth has really shaken all of us ladies in the Preg after Late Loss thread. I know Mel not just through these forums but also through a support group we go to, and it breaks my heart to know that she has once again lost her precious baby boy. She is a wonderful woman and has helped me so much since losing Nathaniel right through to getting to this stage of my preg - in fact she was the one who told me to call my current ob who you all know I love. My heart breaks for her each day and also for Nicholas and Joshua.

If anything ladies, it should remind us to appreciate every day we have and to never give up hope no matter how hard or dark the times may be.

So big hugs everyone and stay strong that your turn will come and we will all have the chance to hold our precious babies one day soon.

Also...just to bring some hope. This baby was kicking the hell out of me last night. It is the first time I have ever felt proper kicks and it is kind of freaky. Yet everytime I got DH's hand so he could feel the baby would go silent - we had images of our little girl giggling away very cheekily. He thinks she is going to be like me!
