We didn't name the babies!

I am so sorry for your losses. You know, it is never too late. You can still pick names for your girls, I know of a mother who later did this for her child.

You were going through a lot at the time, please don't be too hard on yourself.

I'm so sorry to hear of the loss of your daughters. You can always names them at any time. It's a hard decision to make much less in an emergency situation. Please know that we're here any time you need someone to talk to.

know that no words can make you feel better about your situation, but dont beat yourself up about names, especially when you can still name them. i dont know of any rules that say you cant! please know that i am deeply sorry, and i too share the same pain. annette

There was a mom at our support group that named her daughter a while after she delivered her stillborn. I agree, it's never too late. And don't beat yourself up so much, none of us know how we are going to react when these horrible things happen to us. I wish I would've done so many different things when Sofia died, but I didn't have a clue, so I quickly forgave myself. I'm so sorry, it's just so hard, and so easy to find fault at things we do when it's all really out of our hands, but no one reads a book on how to handle your child/children dying before it happens. If you and your husband find it comforting, buy a baby name book, and start picking; I just bought a baby book to write down things Sofia did before she died, and I'll tell you it helped me tons. Thinking of you and your family.

I agree it is never to late. The fact that you remember them means they are still in your heart. Sometimes you need to heal a little before you can help anyone else. I think you are a wonderful person and when you are ready to pick names that is the right time. If you need anyone to talk with just let me know. I have lost 3 children and can listen anytime you need it.

So I made it past my expected due date! We decide to name the babies and look through their memorie boxes on that date. It was extrememly painful but also healing at the same time. We named the girls Mackenzie Kelly and Riley Joe. Thank you to everyone for the support! It's only been 19 weeks since we lost our babies, but for the first time I feel like i am starting to heal. I hope it continues and spreads to so many of you feeling the raw pain that comes with this experience!

I just commented on your other post asking about your sweet angels names! I LOVE them! As I said in your other post, I think that naming them on your due date was a really neat idea. I am sure for your family it was healing. Take care! Thanks for sharing the girls' names with us!

Love, Kelly

Oh, I just love the names!! I'm so glad you and your husband were able to decide on names, I'm so sorry it was so hard. I hope that your due date was as peaceful as possible!! I'm glad you feel your starting to heal, I hope it continues. Thinking of you and your girls!!

Kelly

I love the names and am glad that you were able to look through their memory boxes. It sounds like you are on the road to recovery. Please keep us posted.
