Today is Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day

Today is Pregnancy & Infant Loss Remembrance Day. It a sad thing and to know there are billions of people out there that have experience this including me. Most of you remember me talking about my pregnancy lost at 18 weeks pregnant. 18 weeks is suppose to be the safe time but not always apparently. I was to far gone to just stay home and miscarriage I was on that borderline of stillborn. I was induce and my baby Collyn was removed from me all while I was put asleep. Never got the chance to see him. But I have the ultrasound pictures and stuff and them I cherish. This day is a sad day but always a happy day since I get to remember my little Angel baby Collyn. So to everyone that has experience pregnancy or infant or child loss my prayers are with you today in the remembrance of you loss.

Here is a poem I read on another bloggers site and it brought me to tears so I had to share.

What Makes A Mother

I thought of you and closed my eyes

And prayed to God today

I asked, "What makes a Mother?"

And I know I heard him say

A Mother has a baby

This we know is true

But, God, can you be a mother

When your baby's not with you?

Yes, you can he replied

With confidence in his voice

I give many women babies

When they leave it is not their choice

Some I send for a lifetime

And others for the day

And some I send to feel your womb

But there's no need to stay.

I just don't understand this God

I want my baby here

He took a breath

and cleared his throat

And then I saw a tear

I wish I could show you

What your child is doing Here

If you could see your child smile

With other children and say

"We go to earth to learn our lessons

of love and life and fear,

but My mommy loved me so much

I got to come straight here!"

I feel so lucky to have a Mom who

had so much love for me

I learned my lessons very quickly

My Mommy set me free.

I miss my Mommy oh so much

But I visit her each day

When she goes to sleep

On her pillow is where I lay

I stroke her hair and kiss her cheek

And whisper in her ear

"Mommy, Please don't be sad today

I'm your baby and I am here"

So you see my dear sweet one

Your children are okay

Your babies are here in My home

And this is where they'll stay

They'll wait for you with Me

Until your lessons there are through

And on the day that you come home

they'll be at the gates waiting for you

So now you see

What makes a Mother

It's the feeling in your heart

It's the love you had so much of

Right from the very start
