Our first child was stillborn due to a cord accident while I was in the early stages of labor in January of 2003. We went on to have another baby boy in March of 2004, and a baby girl in Febuary of 2007. This is my life raising my children that are here while I am missing the one that should be.
The day my first baby was due. That feels like an eternity away. And very insignificant, all things considered. But there is still sadness, just not on the same level. Where did 4 years GO???

I can imagine that Caleb's birth and death would completely overshadow the loss of the first baby. To think, you could have had a 4 year old now and a totally different life.
Have you seen the movie 'The Butterfly Effect'? It is about all the possibilities lives can follow when just one detail is changed.
I'm sorry that first baby was lost. It is sad. It is one more chapter of your life that shouldn't have happened, and you have had too many:( ((HUGS))
I know all about Caleb, but was shocked to learn you had lost another baby. It's strange how we can share the worst event of our lives with others and still not really know that much about them.
I'm so sorry you have another baby to mourn...an alternate life to miss. I hope this day brings you some peaceful moments.
Thanks for the movie tip Jill. I am going to have to check out The Butterfly Effect. It sounds interesting. Myself, I recommend Sliding Doors with Gwyneth Paltrow. Romantic comedy with the same twist.
thinking about you, julie
What a hard day. Happy birthday to your precious little boy up in heaven.
Oh Julie...I didn't read correctly. I too did not know that you had had another loss. I'm so sorry. :(
