My miracle (birth control baby) daughter Angelina Pearl was born December 29th, 2005. She was absolutely perfect. I had to have general surgery @ 28w with her due to an infection. I went to the doctor on Wednesday December 28th and told the doctor I was tired of being pregnant and wanted to be induced on Friday. After being examined, he said I wouldn't make it and he would see me the next day.
At 2am, I went into labor and she was born at 9:27am. On January 18th, 2006, I was feeding her in the bed with me. I sat her down next to me to take a break. I took a phone call from my husband and that was the last thing I remember. I woke up in a hospital with nurse and doctors and police all around me. I still remember the doctors words "your daughter was brought in not responding and despite our best attempts, we were unable to revive her". I was in shock, I didn't know what happened. I was told that I suffered several seizures (no history of them) and during the seizures my blood sugar dropped (type 1 diabetic for 15yrs). They said that during one of my seizures I rolled over on her and she suffocated under me. I was heartbroken. I was grilled by police accusing me of not being able to handle motherhood and saying I suffocated my daughter and faked me medical episode. I asked to see my daughter and they said ok, but if I touched her I would be arrested for contaminating a crime scene. My daughters body was then considered a crime scene. I went home and made the arrangements to cremate her and sadly no one came to her funeral but me and my husband.
In March 2006, I found out I was pregnant again after my birth control failed yet again. I went to the doctor and confirmed my pregnancy. My husband and myself were not married at the time. My husband thought it was too soon after losing Angelina but I thought it to be a blessing. We separated for a few months. In August 2006 I moved to New York 7.5 months pregnant. My son Charles was born November 15th, 2006 after having an emergency c-section due to his heart stooping.He is now 3 yrs old.
In August 2008, I found out I was pregnant yet again with birth control. After a very eventful pregnancy including a car crash at 36w, my daughter Vanessa was born April 22nd, 2009. She is already one.
My daughter Samantha who I adopted is 9 yrs old. She often brings Angelina up and I can tell she misses her very much. Samantha is a very strong girl but misses her sister very much. Charles and Vanessa never got the pleasure of meeting her.
I also lost my niece Serenity Jade on September 19th, 2007. She was 2.5 yrs old. It was said to be a crib accident but investigation on my part and the police's part shows otherwise. She was my baby that her life ended far to soon due to a negligent mother.
I miss both Serenity and Angelina everyday. My husband wont discuss either of them due to I know he still places blame on me. I blame myself for Angelina's death and after 4 yrs it is still hard. I have learned that the pain never really leaves, it just gets easier to get by each day without crying.
