Tears in my eyes!

Hi all

Not sure how many of you read the story about the mother who sadly died (brain damage I think) and then after the Dr's keeping her alive for a bit, gave birth to her baby at 26 weeks.

I am 26+1 today and seeing the little baby brought tears to my eyes. Something like that is inside me! That is what my little Angus is like! Little Aya had a proper little big toe - my Angus has a proper little big toe!!! She weighs just over 2lbs I think and looks very long bless her. Hubby just said she can cry but as she is so premature, there is barely any noise.

I just can't believe we aren't having a baby and there is a little mini us growing inside me. Its amazing.

I feel so sad that Aya's mother will never get to see her grow up. The story is very sad, but if little Aya gets stronger and stronger, it must make the sadness less.

Love Joo xxx
