Liam was just perfect in every way , But for some reason he was taken from us.
We will always love our baby boy.
I went into what i thought was labour , But then started being sick so went straight to the hospital . They put me straight into a room and started doing the normal checks ..
The midwife kept moving the heartbeat strap all over my belly then pushing it , she went out the room & came back with a doctor who did the same thing .. he then went out & came back with a scan machine , he said he just needed to check something .. i didnt realise to be honest straight away i just thought maybe Liam was breech , after about 10 minutes that actually felt like an hour he looked at me & said the worst news ive ever had in my life " Your baby has no heartbeat we cant pick it up only yours " I thought to myself what do they know their machines are wrong you wait til he's born you'll see .......
I was taken to another room right at the back of the ward "out of the way " is how it felt , I was out on 4 different drips one was a sedative so i was told , later i found out it was to keep me calm when Liam was born , The midwife stayed with me the whole time she was brilliant , She broke my waters and i overheard "the waters have no blood stained liquor " ...
at about 1.30pm on the saturday afternoon i felt like i needed the toilet so tried getting off the bed when my partner told me to stay still he could see Liam's head and body coming down ... The midwife put me back on the bed and delivered Liam as soon as his legs came out the blood gushed everywhere it was like a panic button had gone off ... I was so sedated i didnt understand why ?
I could see Liam in his daddys arms he looked so warm and i was waiting for him to cry ....
The midwife was saying to the doctor " Im massaging , if it dont stop within 4 minutes we need a theatre " .But thank god it stopped with just the massaging .
I got to hold Liam after i was sorted out & changed etc...
He was perfect , perfect in every way right from the tip of his head down to his tiny toes .. He was colder now though i could see his lips changing colour , I knew he had gone that they had been telling me the truth but i still didnt want to hear it .. I held Liam for hours & hours didnt want to let him go .
We had Liam baptised in the room with my partner , mum , mother in law , my dad & aunt Pam . When i finally let him go he was placed in his new babygrow & vest with matching hat & mittens , put into a beautiful moses basket wrapped up warm and taken..
Liam had died as i had a Placenta Abruption I had never heard of it till it happened to our family .. I nearly died too or would have had a hysterectomy if they hadnt stopped the blood.
The report said the placenta had 7 cm x 5 holes , my poor baby hadnt stood a chance .. i was told Liam would have been serveley brain damaged if he had survived ..
liam was starved of oxygen.
He was 36 weeks gestation.
Weighing 4 Lb 10 oz.
With Gorgeous dark hair.
Its been 8 years In may but i miss you more every day as does Big sister Shannon.
Liam was my 4th pregnancy
I had a miscarrige at 17, a baby that died at 9 weeks (had a DNC in hospital) at 18 .
Then a beautiful daughter who is now 10 yrs old ,
Then my baby gorgeous baby boy .
He has a little sister now who is 12 months old called Madison - Rose
But i now that he will always be apart of me & that he was taken from us for a reason,
Maybe god decided he needed a sweet angel and chose our son. x x x x x
The tiny rosebud God picked to bloom in Heaven.
The master gardener from heaven above
Planted a seed in the garden of Love,
And from it there grew a rosebud small
That never had time to open at all.
For God in his perfect and all-wise way
Chose this rose for his heavenly bouquet,
And great was the joy of this tiny rose
To be the one our Father chose
To leave earth’s garden
For one on high
where roses bloom always and never die.
So, while you can’t see your precious rose bloom,
You know the great gardener from the upper room
Is watching and tending this wee rose with care,
Tenderly touching each petal so fair.
So think of your darling with the angels above,
Secure and contented and surrounded with love,
And remember God blessed and enriched your lives too,
For in dying your darling brought heaven closer to you.

Happy Birthday In Heaven - by Winnie Lovett
"Happy Birthday Liam"
It's sure to be the best one yet,
Though you left us here behind.
Did you think that we'd forget?
Your cake this year, will surely be,
A beauty to behold.
With the icing made of Silver,
And the candles made of Gold.
Yes, your birthday in Heaven,
Will be such a grand affair.
And I know you'll look so lovely,
With a halo in your hair.
The Angels will come from everywhere,
To sing your birthday song.
And I know they'll be so happy,
That you've joined, God's Happy Throng.
No I can't send a card this year,
Or give a gift so fine.
So I'll just send a special prayer,
To that wonderful Son of yours.

Little Brother - by Christie Wildman
For your other children XX
You have this little Brother,
He loves you very much,
But you’ll never get to see him,
Or feel his gentle touch.
He had to go away you see,
Through God’s garden gates.
Though he longs to meet you,
Heaven’s where he waits.
You have this little Brother,
He’s sending you his love,
Although he longs to be with you,
He watches from above.
He grew his Angel wings you see,
Though none of us were ready,
On one of heavens clouds he sleeps,
Cuddling his teddy.
You have this little Brother,
He’d love to come and play.
But for all eternity,
In the sky is where he’ll stay.
God had a plan you see,
He needs him by his side,
He’s shown him how to use his wings,
Through heavens clouds he glides.
You have this little Brother,
And though you are apart,
The love that you feel for him,
Will remain ever in your heart.

A Birthday In Heaven - Author Unknown
I heard you crying yesterday,
And felt your heart-sent love.
So I’m sending you this message
Now, from Heaven up above.
You’re wondering if I’ll celebrate
My birthday (way up here).
I know you’re missing me today
I feel your essence near.
God planned a special day for me,
He told me with a wink.
He’d ordered me a special cake
(It’s Angel food, I think).
Balloons will fill the streets for me,
They float up through the clouds.
And we have lots of friends up here
That make us laugh out loud.
There is a birthday carousel,
Jewelled horses ride the wind,
With music playing, oh so sweet…
The magic never ends.
I’ve made so many friends, you see
We laugh and play and sing.
We ride our bikes and play the fool
And sleep in Angel’s wings.
But we don’t blow out our candles here
Instead, they light the skies.
angel wings
today i prayed for angels
to keep watch over you
to guard and then protect you
in everything you do
when i whispered to the father
i asked for him to bring
a touch of love and goodness
sent forth on angel wings
i asked for them to whisper
peace and joy into your ear
that songs of love and happiness
would be that all you would hear
but then i asked the father
to shine upon your face
an extra special blessing
of his mercy and his grace
tonight i asked the father
to grant one more request
that angels stand watch over you
and give you peaceful rest
so if you feel a brush of wings
or a soft breeze fill the air
just know its angels watching you
because of whispered prayers
