I became pregnant with Christian
in June of 2000. My boyfriend, Bob, and I had only
been dating for a short time, and there was no
thought of even having a baby. We knew we weren't
ready for our relationship to go that step.
Even though Christian was not planned he's very much
loved and missed. It was shortly after I had become
pregnant, that Bob and I broke up for a short
time. At the time we didn't know I was pregnant.
I was very upset with the break up, even though
we remained friends. A few weeks later
though we had worked things out and got back together.
On July 20, 2000, I found out that I was pregnant.
It was a day that should have been full of joy and
happiness, but instead it was full of pain
and heart break. That was the day I lost
Christian.
It's been almost a year now since that
day I lost Christian, and there hasn't been a time
when I haven't thought of him and missed him. March
rolled around, which would have been the
he would have been born.Bob and I haven't really
talked about Christian. He is grieving in his own
way, I know. This time I know that I have people to
talk to and great friends to help me grieve.
