Bia Nicole, our sleeping angel.

Late in the evening on Sunday January 12, 2025 I noticed I hadn’t felt my baby kick in me for the last few hours and I started to grow concern. At 39 weeks and 2 days at the time, I was so anxious but so prepared to meet my sweet baby girl and decided to go in to labor and delivery to get checked out hoping maybe she was just extra comfy in there and running out of room. That trip that I hoped to be no big deal turned into finding out about 1:30 Monday morning, that my baby no longer had a heartbeat. After everything up until this point in my pregnancy being nearly perfect, all the scans, bloodwork, testing everything on paper was as close to perfect as they could be. After all the preparation, buying matching outfits and bows and little socks, setting everything up to be just perfect for her, going into crazy nesting mama mode for things to be just right for my first baby girl, it all just got taken from me in the blink of an eye. I delivered my perfect Bia Nicole Hammonds on Tuesday night, January 14th at 10:30 pm after laboring for 2 days knowing the ultimate outcome was I would never get to watch my baby grow up or see her little eyes or feel her little heartbeat outside of me. There is no words or anything anyone can say or do to take this pain from me and her father and our entire families. This baby was loved and longed for for so long and Bia took a piece of all of us with her.

I’ve set this up in lieu of flowers and to eventually get her a small plot and headstone. It will also go towards helping with bills and everyday life until I’m able and ready to go back to work. I appreciate anyone that has or will reach out. My life is forever changed.
