Connor and life after

This blog was originally intended to keep family and friends updated on what was happening with our appointments during my pregnancy with Connor. Unfortunately it is now about dealing with my grief, and the very long journey it is taking me on. This blog is now a way for me to hash out those feelings and emotions as raw and as horrible as they can be. If you are going to be offended by them and take things personally then please stop reading now and allow me to continue on my journey and respect my need to grieve. Thanks so much for your support.

Writing Connor's Name

I have seen other babyloss mama's do this on their blog and it is such a beautiful way to remember their lost loved ones. So I have something I would like to ask no matter where you are around the country or around the world. If you think of us and Connor, would you write his name? It can be written in so many ways, in the sand, out of nursery blocks, in snow or ice, out of sticks or leaves or any other imaginative way that you can think of. Take a photo of it and email it to me at c_m_sartain@hotmail.com and I will post it in the blog. Thank you so much xxx

Egore has arrived!!!!


And he has a name! We are so proud to announce the safe and healthy arrival of Reuben Isaac. He arrived on Valentines Day, which uncannily enough is also International Heart Defect Awareness Day. Born with a great set of lungs at 10:23am weighing a healthy 3.28kg. We are all so over the moon, everything went well with mum on the road to recovery. We are just adjusting to our new life with Reuben and coping with all of the emotions involved that a rainbow baby brings. Stay tuned for more photos and more details in the coming days.......

Also, many many thanks go to all of those who have supported us and been strong for us over the last 2 years. We never ever imagined getting to this point. Words can not describe what it feels like.
