A regular dad, dealing with the stillbirth of a baby girl. January 6, 2010. News, and a link. First: our friends baby, who was extremely sick, is now home and quite well! She’ll need a third operation between the age of 3 to 6 months but on the whole should be fine. Hooray for life. Second: This may warrant investigation, but I don’t think the following piece. In Time magazine on how Fa.cebook is changing the grieving process quite applies to the baby loss gang. Perhaps I’m wrong. Laquo; New Year. Oh yes...

A regular dad, dealing with the stillbirth of a baby girl. December 28, 2009. Just a quick update – our friends’ baby who has been extremely sick for about a week now, underwent a second operation yesterday as the doctors felt that without it they would not be able to take her off life support. She made it through the op, and now a further 24 hours have passed, so they hope to take her off the ventilator later today or tomorrow. Small steps, but in the right direction thankfully. Laquo; Not even a mouse.

A regular dad, dealing with the stillbirth of a baby girl. December 31, 2009. First up, our friends’ baby has taken a very positive turn and is off the ventilator. I say tentatively that she’s through the worst. Back to 2009, and I’m finding it hard to ‘define’ the year. On paper it has been the worst year of my life as I’ve been grieving the death of my daughter, but how can I reconcile that with the birth of a precious adorable third child? I don’t know. It. Been the worst of times. It. I think I’...

Birth Certs | Irishdad's Blog
https://irishdad.wordpress.com/2010/04/24/birth-certs
A regular dad, dealing with the stillbirth of a baby girl. April 24, 2010. I just came across an article from a couple of weeks ago, via a link in Twitter. It discusses a movement in Pennsylvania in the US to allow parents of stillborn children to have birth certs issued for them. Thought provoking stuff. We had a painful time registering the death. And see what you think. It certainly strikes me as unfortunate that the issue is so politicised and appears to be being hijacked by so many other parties.

A regular dad, dealing with the stillbirth of a baby girl. December 24, 2009. Not even a mouse. I haven’t posted much of late as I’ve been busy looking after Littleboy and my good wife, who came home from the hospital a couple of days after her section. In short, her parents and family have been landed in hell and there’s nothing they or anyone else can do but wait and hope that she’s strong enough to pull through. Finally, I wish you all the best this Christmas. Laquo; It’s a…. On December 25, 2009.

A regular dad, dealing with the stillbirth of a baby girl. January 28, 2010. That’s the best way I can sum up how things have been over the past few weeks. Much of the chatter in my mind has calmed down since the baby was born. Sleep comes easier and runs deeper than it did for. All of last year. Our new baby is fantastic and we love her to bits. Her older brother is being great too with only a few accidental knees to the head and one finger biting incident to account for so far. Posted in New born.

A pox on my house | Irishdad's Blog
https://irishdad.wordpress.com/2010/03/07/a-pox-on-my-house
A regular dad, dealing with the stillbirth of a baby girl. March 7, 2010. A pox on my house. Since I created the draft of this post yesterday, our little girl is now showing a couple of suspicious spots around her body. She’s 12 weeks now and hopefully if she has the pox she won’t get it too bad. So much for immunity. Thankfully we have some savings and will be able to weather the time it may take to find a new job. We’re very lucky in this regard as so many people are struggling at the moment. Don’...
