It's been over a year and a half since I shared the news that our daughter Amelia was born sleeping at full term. I wanted to reach out to thank everyone for their love and support. Losing Amelia has torn our world apart, and left us dealing with a lifetime of grief. We miss our little girl every day, but she is at the heart of our family and always will be. I continued to take my maternity leave as planned and took the time I needed to come to terms with the tragedy of losing a child.
I wanted to share the news that last year our precious Amelia sent us the greatest gift of all, a little sister. Phoebe Louise was born safely on 24th September at 14.38pm weighing 6lb 4oz. Phoebe is Amelia's little sister and not her replacement. Pregnancy after loss is the hardest thing we have had to go through after losing Amelia. The fear and anxiety we felt for 9 months was something I could have never imagined. After a short stay in NICU, SCBU and the childrens hospital, Phoebe is thriving and is a happy 7 month old.
We are slowly adjusting to being a family of four, just not how we could have ever imagined, one girl in our hearts and one in our arms.
I am on maternity leave once again and embracing every moment with Phoebe. Amelia has taught us how precious life is so I'm taking all the time I need with my beautiful girls and incredible husband before considering returning to KMR. I will let you know when I do.
Thank you for all the love, kindness and support. Kelly ###x
