We lost our Baby

I was 35 weeks pregnant with our second child, a son.

Tucker Jack Gilleland was born still (but still born) on August 31, 2009 at 5:04 p.m., weighing 4 lbs & 3 oz, and was 17.3 inches long.

I miss him.

We want him.

We love him.

  1. I just saw your comment on Stacy's blog. I'm so sorry that you are walking this path too. I know how hard it is. My son Nate died 18 months ago - he was 25 days old. It's still hard but it does get better.

    I've found a lot of comfort from fellow bloggers that are walking the same path. I am walking it and will gladly hold your hand if you need it.

    Hugs,
    Trisha

  2. I also came here from Stacy's blog. I lost my son at 38 weeks on August 20th. Your post above about your daughter makes so much sense to me as I struggle with many of the same feelings about my living son. I wish we didn't need to walk this path.
