A work friend of mine just lost her baby at 37 weeks. I am beyond devastated for her. I haven’t stopped thinking about her since I found out yesterday. All night I dreamed about her and all my other friends who have lost babies– a surprising number even in real life, outside of infertility and loss blog world.
She is the sweetest, nicest woman, and now her life will never ever be the same again. Ella and Gatito have been getting extra hugs and kisses.

OMG thats awful… I am so sorry…
Oh, I’m so sorry to hear that. What a heartbreaking loss.
Ugh. No. Not a 37 weeks. I’m going to try to forget I even know this can happen.
I know. I remember how awful the loss at nine weeks was and multiply that by a bazillion.

How totally devasting . . . I will say a little prayer for her. (And then, in the meantime, try to forget that these things can actually happen, like Sarah said. Ug.)
My heart breaks for that woman and her family. So close to the joy of holding their new gift in their arms and now, gone.
I’ll send some comforting thoughts their way. I’m not religious but I am spiritual so I don’t pray as such but I do believe there is something bigger than us that has some sort of plan. Too bad the plan sometimes comes with horrible flaws.
Oh no! So sorry for her and her family. So terribly sad.
