So warm you were in my arms.
Daddy says I reached down to get you
I held you while they stiched me up
Mine
I'll never forget your face then
It was there I said goodbye
I look back at pictures taken then
Too pale
Lips too red
That is not how I remember you
I remember you there in my arms
Those first few precious moments
So warm
So perfect
Mine forever

- I'm here because it seems to be helping. I am mother to a toddler and we lost our beautiful daughter on Mother's Day 2007 because of cord compression . Ironically, the day she died in the womb, May 12, was her "exact" due date(40 weeks). So many things like this I cannot explain. We welcomed our 'rainbow baby' Jan 2010!

I remember those first moments when C. was born, when he was still warm from my body. It was beautiful, like he was sleeping. I couldn't understand why he wouldn't take a breath. He was so amazing.
I can tell you felt the same way.
Just came here from the babylossdirectory. I am so sorry to hear about your precious Jessica. This poem touches my heart so much. Please know that I am thinking of you.

I am so, so very sorry for the loss of sweet little Jessica.
Unfortunately I don't think pictures can ever do justice to how it felt to hold and see our little ones in our arms. I know mine don't. But I'm still thankful for them.
