Caitlin and Thomas- Evangeline's Story

[@yayisima007]

I can relate to this story so much... I have my baby 3 months ago, and he came to this world sleeping too. I dont have surviving kids either, and I'm so sad, and I can understand every feeling and word you say....

[@pamelastates5600]

@ Lau hello I’m so sorry for your loss. I will keep you in my prayers. Sending my prayers to you. Love, Light& Healing ❤️🙏🏽🇨🇦 God bless you mr dear

[@lifewithjimmy4389]

I wish there were follow-ups also to see what happens to these couples if they go on to have more children. Their hearts are so full of love to give to another child. This couple is so cute the wife reminds me of Bette Midler. Every couple this website showsSo loving and they deserve a bunch of children at their feet. I pray daily for all of them. I lost my baby girl to a terrible brain tumor and she was two years old. It’s different but still a loss. I love to all!! ❤️

[@polskalaska2509]

What a beautiful name Evangeline is. I promise I will never forget your daughter ❤

[@danni1993]

I wish there were followup/updates on these stories.

[@pattylane2850]

More of this story need to be told ! My heart is with you ❤️

[@therange4033]

I was a Midwife for many years, and have unfortunately delivered stillborn babies. I cried with the parents. They said that was the kindest, and the best thing I could have done.

[@lauralowery8223]

I delivered a stillborn baby boy back in 1979. My first baby. It's so hard but I guarantee it'll get better. Every year on 9/14 I remember his birthday. He would have been 40 this year. You never forget but time does heal. It is very helpful to join groups that have been through the same thing. Nobody truly understands like someone who has experienced your loss. Big Hugs to you both♡♡

[@aijab5129]

Sorry for Your loss! Had my beautiful princess pass away in 23 weeks, it is heartbreaking..Sending lots of love and all the best wishes to Your family! ❤❤❤

[@olivedog1880]

nilmdtl is an awesome organization, they care so much about people that are hurting, they make it better if only for a short time. so sorry for your loss

[@TheDixiedarling87]

God bless you both. I'm at a total loss as to how you maintained your sanity.

[@ewak1280]

Thanks for sharing Evangeline's story with us Caitlin and Thomas. My prayers and condolences are with you guys!

[@EmeGAMP]

Thank you. Your story is the first one so similar to ours. Do you know now what happened? Because none can tell me why my baby girl Matilde died. Everything was perfect. She was due the 4 October 2020. I had contractions all night, the morning we went to check and she was dead. She was perfectly fine the day before! I don't know how to survive this. I don't know if I can have others children because of my endometriosis, and even if, I just want her. My beautiful girl.

[@justmeashley7923]

Gosh their story breaks my fuggin heart. I wish we had a follow up and I wish we knew there they were now.

[@naomiandi2882]

My heart goes out to this couple and all the other couples have shared their grief. Updates are desperately needed.

[@juliehowman3912]

Sweetheart you did not know, you can’t blame yourself as you did what the doctor said. No one is prepared to put their child in the ground, least of all a baby. Your grief is real, Evangeline was blessed to have you both as her parents. There are no words that remove the pain, but I pray in time, after your healing you will be blessed with a baby to hold. It’s hard to lose a child, and the pain is very real, there is no need to apologise for that.thank you for having the courage to speak out.

[@tiffanysitar8186]

It's hard to talk about and I'm sorry for your loss. I too have loss in my life. I can only tell you guys time, time doesn't heal like they say, it just hurts a little less each day. I laughed at the parisite, I too called my babe that. It took four losses before I had my rainbow baby, keep her in your hearts, I have a tattoo for my three children who are angles. I would hug you guys through the screen if I could.

[@awalkthroughtorah6897]

you both shared so beautifully. I know your story will help so many others.

[@Ladypoet1985]

That light that went out... I had immediate feeling that it was your daughter in the room with you. My heart breaks for you. I also lost my baby 2 and a half months ago. It's such a horrible thing to go through. No words are comforting. I'm so sorry for your loss.

[@debbietrammell6201]

your child loves you just as much an you love her. and yall see her agen one day.may agod bless yalland to her family.

[@nurse7559]

She loved rice crispy treats- oh my heart!My deepest condolences😩

[@janjaf844]

Your guys story has stuck with me and I think of you guys often and would love to hear how your doing.

[@katpayne9851]

I have felt the same. I hope they are doing okay. I will always remember their story and their daughter anytime I hear the name Evangeline or Princess and the Frog.

[@pamelastates5600]

I’m sorry for your loss. Sending you my deepest condolences 🙏🏽 Love, Light & Healing ❤️🙏🏽🇨🇦

[@skatestarny2001]

Bless you both. I am so sorry

[@LifeAsAYoungMarried]

Thank you so much for sharing this! I can't imagine how hard this is for you..... healing prayers for this journey you're on. Your story is so important, your losses and your feelings and the guardedness you felt toward your pregnancy...it is so typical of many couples who've experienced loss. It's great that you are able to voice and share your story....this WILL touch and help many.

[@KrackKills2013]

So sorry for your loss🙏 God bless you both🙏

[@georgiascott4172]

God bless you.

[@gisecaprin9616]

I've been through that... is so hard to move on, so hard. I understand you so much... I send you all my love (my babygirl called Giovanella)

[@Truth4peace4freedom]

She existed. She left her mark. And she will always be a part of your family. She turned you both into a mother & father.

[@teamcougars]

People don’t know what to say, but try not to shut people out, the isolation makes things worse... I had a molar pregnancy in ‘’07 trying to get back into the swing of things was extremely difficult. It took me a good 6 months to feel halfway.normal again. Be kind to yourselves and one another.

[@nurse7559]

teamcougars my deepest condolences

[@rosier1135]

I'm so sorry about the loss of the baby. Sometimes our loved ones spirits manifest using electronic devices to let us know that they're around us, they hear us. Your lights went off when you were talking about Evangeline, sweet angel.

[@Truth4peace4freedom]

While we were holding our baby boy in the funeral home for the very last time, a lamp came on.

[@abbyrash161]

It's ok not to buy stuff for your baby when u r this scared. Don't b so hard on urself. U r great parents!! May God bless you

[@teamcougars]

Now I lay me down to sleep is an amazing organization. Do whatever you feel is best to intigrate her into your lives, some of my friends who have had still born babies have the pictures from NILMDTS on the mantle and the wall,, do. What you feel is right for you two. She is your baby she is real.

[@alleycat4714]

I’m so sorry for your losses. That has to be gut wrenching talking about it so soon after. I experienced a loss in 2017 and remember the pain and not knowing how to relate to anyone. I didn’t ever “deal” with it and confront the situation. But it’s unfortunate that our society doesn’t address this issue. Regarding pregnancy, you only hear about the ones ending with love babies. I had people say some really hurtful things (unintentionally), including a friend of mine who’d just had a daughter (which I would have had too) inviting me to her home to play with her daughter. I hope more people become aware of this and maybe take some classes on etiquette (lol)! But those things happen and none of us can predict it and it certainly doesn’t mean that you can’t have a successful pregnancy when/if you’re ready to try again. I subsequently had two healthy babies, a girl and a boy. Anyway, thank you for sharing and I wish you both the best!

[@debbietrammell6201]

Amay she R.I.P.i pray God will help you.Happy God help them in there time of need.God plz bless them with a child.Amen

[@TheEnglandknp]

Heartbreaking.

[@robynholliday4794]

So sorry ❤️

[@kpalms8943]

may your sweet girl always look over you and any future pregnancies you may choose to persue :)

[@lynnfeller7565]

So sorry

[@aicastillo23]

This hits me so hard 😔 it’s been 3 wks ago that I gave birth to my sleeping daughter I feel like I can’t breath every time I remember her I have more children but there’s a hole in my heart that I know it would be never be fill I thought of name her evangeline for the same reason but at the end I name her Roxanne ( little star)

[@aijab5129]

Am sorry for Your loss, had my angel princess passed away when she was 23 weeks, it was three months ago and there is that enormous emptiness...Keep strong, try to go further as much as You can, take as much time You need-struggling together, sister!

[@amydodd560]

I am so sorry

[@daniellebenfield95]

Kinda random i guess but I had smiled for a sec when you talked about the twenty week ultrasound. I had a false positive for Downs syndrome with my oldest. Since I used a midwife, im not sure if i would have had any ultrasounds if it werent for.that. even knowing they were looking for signs of Downs syndrome, the first thing O asked is if they could tell if she had hydrocephalus, because..... paranoid lol. Seriously though, I have hydrocephalus and wasnt entirely clear on the genetics. Come my second pregnancy, I refused the regular blood tests, but requested an ultrasound, because again, paranoid! The first midwife I saw with my second pregnancy was kind of a witch, but fortunately at my second appt, i saw the midwife who delivered both girls and she was much more helpful.

[@lirpa1981]

She was born on my birthday!

[@decontill1]

I understand.....i have never lost a child...but....I UNDERSTAND. What you are feeling is the hardest human emotion to feel. But this too shall pass....and all though you dont know me....by putting your your pain on display...i, as well as others, have come to know you. The perfect love we feel for those that have passed...never leaves us. that makes it real....and they do live on. The short time they are here.....that even those who live a "full" life are here.....is nothing compared to the universe. Therefore, by comparison...their impact on the universe is practically equal. You love her the same as any parents love a child....take comfort in that. i wish you both peace and happiness. from one human to another.

[@sharks49201]

No disrespect but you don't know

[@dasiagoodman7945]

Then you DONT understand if you've never lost a child. Hush.

[@janicebrocke8528]

god will bless you

[@Truth4peace4freedom]

Caitlin and Thomas, if you read this comment in 2030, please still respond. Did you ever go on to having another child?

[@debbietrammell6201]

[@corinsaleh2129]

i really wish you both didn't have superiors to have to tell you what to do or what not to do!!!
