I still miss him very much each day but time goes on and the pain becomes not so unbearable. I have read the poems on your First Page and cried along with many other parents out there . I too wrote poems to help deal with my son's death. I think you are doing a great service to parent's and families of SIDS babies by providing a place for all of us to vent our feelings and recieve correct information about SIDS. Keep up the good work and I would enjoy hearing from anyone out there who just wants to talk I hope one day to write a book about my experience with losing a baby to SIDS and the whole journey of fighting to hold on after this tragedyoccurs. My heart and prayers go out to all of you.

Comments: I live in Ontario, Canada. My daughter Taylor is 9 1/2 weeks old now. At two weeks old, we were told that she had a heart murmour. The specialist told us that Taylor had Ventrical Membreeus Ceptal Defect ( a small hole in the heart). I almost died. He told us that it was nothing to worry about. He said that her heart was already mending itself. Regardless, I thank her guardian angels that she is alright but I am so paranoid. My partner and I do not smoke. We have taken all the precautions that we have read about. Taylor is now sleeping in her own room. I have the monitor beside me. I am breast-feeding her. She seems healthy and happy. I wish in all honasty that I wasn't so scared of SIDS. It is all I think about. I am scared to death. My heart goes out to all that have lost. I am 23 and live a good life, but I could not live without my daughter. I pray that they find a cure, or at least a cause. I need sleep, but I don't beleive that I'll sleep well until Taylor is out of the danger zone. My heart goes out to all. It felt good to get this off my chest. Thanks.

My doctor had me in the hospital for a week to make sure infection didn' set in, but after a week an infection did set in, causing me to go into labor. The umbilical cord prolapsed and Luke's oxygen supply was cut off, causing him to be born stillborn. If anyone else has experienced something like this, please email me.

Comments: Your site has helped me talk with people who have shared a similar situation. On April 23, 1997 My son, Connor, was stillborn I would like to talk with other parents who have lost a child to stillbirth. I was 40 1/2 weeks pregnant when Connor died. I am dealing with his death one day at a time, but as many of you know firsthand, having a child die is the absolute worst thing that could ever happen to you. My sister was pregnant at the same time I was. My daughter who is three doesn't understand why Aunt Tammy's baby is here and ours is not. I can't say I understand either. I have had six pregnancies. One blighted ovum (I had a D&C in the 14th week to prevent hemmorraging), two misscarriages (8weeks and 5 weeks) , one living child, and my son who was born and died in April 1997. My husband want more children badly, but we fear another outcome like Connor's. We have been through alot. I welcome any and all comments, words of encouragements, questions, etc. I need to talk to other parents right now. I feel it is the only consolation I will get right now, to know that I am not alone. Please e-mail me at woody@iah.com I look forward to hearing from you.

Having already raised two healthy daughters, I unfortunatly live once again with the fear of having an infant in the house and something happening when he sleeps. Having my son was the 3rd happiest event of my life, I once again get up several times unnecessarily during the night to check on him. Even though he has only been in our lives for one month, I could not imagine losing him to something has horrible as SIDS. I appreciate the information provided on your page.

Comments: I lost my son Connor on April 23, 1997. He was stillborn at 40 1/2 weeks. I still do not have an explanation. He was perfectly fine the day before he was born. He weighed 9lbs. and was 22 inches long. I miss him very much and will be trying for another child very soon. If anyone has had a similar tradegy happen, please e-mail me.

Our third daughter, Corbann Monroe, was stillborn 21 September 1996 (at 36 weeks) due to a cord accident. Please feel free to mail me, I would very much like to hear from others, hopefully we can help one another out!
