Niia was born sleeping after 41 glorious weeks of carrying her. She was our first and much wanted
baby girl. I had a textbook preganancy and was eagerly awaiting her arrival...as were so many
others. By the time she was due on 17th April, her nursery was decorated and the house was prepared
for her imminent arrival!
After a visit from the midwife at 41 weeks, my contractions started that weekend....being a first
timer...I wasn't sure if 'this was it', I'd awoken for so many days wondering if today would be the
day...
By sunday afternoon though, all had gone quiet again. I had felt Niia move on the Saturday evening
as she was such a fidget in the evenings! Contractions all saturday night had left me distracted
from feeling her wriggling about....I listened in with a stethoscope sunday evening, and there was
her heartbeat galloping away. Monday morning I did the same, galloping again...but something just
didn't feel right. There had been no wriggling, no pushing mummy away if I leant on her..
So I rang the hospital and popped up to get checked out. Daddy was at work just in the next building
if we needed him.
The midwife Kelly couldn't find your heartbeat on the monitor though, we thought maybe you were just
lying the wrong way....so we 'cheated' and had a quick scan....only to hear those three fatal
words.....'I'm so sorry'. Our beautiful girl was gone.

We were so close, yet suddenly so far from being with you.

I was induced two days later and you were born at 20.55 that evening....so beautiful and so still.

We miss you so much now, everyday is filled with 'what ifs'. The day I left you behind a piece of me
and daddy stayed too. The pieces of our hearts will never truly mend, as there will always be a hole
were you should be Niia. We love you our beautiful girl,
x x Mummy and daddy x x


We have since found out that Niia isn't with us due to placental insufficiency. Something which
should have been picked up since she never grew bigger than 36 week size....I love you baby girl
xXxXx

So very sorry for your loss, from someone who cares xxx

Fluffy clouds of pink and blue
Where fairytales and dreams come true
Where teddy bears put on shows
In the place where little babies go.

Where a choir of angels sing on high
A peaceful, soothing lullaby
And their feathers flutter down like snow
In the place where little babies go.

Where the sun is shining everyday
In a heavenly sky that’s never grey
Where love will bloom and always grow
In the place where little babies go.

Where bells will ring and hearts they soar
When a mum and dad walk through its door
Then only tears of joy will flow
In the place where little babies go.


Sending my love to you and your loved ones you have sadly left behind xxx

Sometimes life's most precious things
Slip too quickly from our hands...
Snowflakes, rainbows, childhood,
Castles in the Sand.

God gave us a special spot
to preserve them in our hearts;
A forever place where all we love
lingers when we part.

Fireflies and autumn leaves,
Roses, kittens, dreams,
Icicles, sunrise, spider webs,
Mornings dew, moon beams;

Butterflies and baby birds,
Flowers that bloom in spring...
Perhaps in life God's greatest gifts
Are blessed by Him with wings.

"Angel"
Tear drops, slow and steady,
The pain so real and true,
God took another angel,
And that angel, dear, was you.

Angel wings, upon the clouds,
Your body softly sleeps,
Hush now little angel,
No more tears you have to weep.

Little prayers,are sent to you,
The short life you led;
Your family will never forget you,
So rest your little head.

I know God will look after you,
Now you are truly alive,
Your spirit soars beyond the moon,
Your legacy will survive.

You’re beautiful, you’re endless,
Now stretch your wings and fly,
Your loved by so many,
It will never be goodbye.

Close your pretty eyes,
No more tears,just go and rest,
Let your soul lie peacefully,
we know you did your best.
