My pregnancy came as a shock because it wasn't planed but I was happy and excited.It was my first pregnancy
I had to go for a scan because I didn't know how far gone I was. At my scan I found out I was 11 weeks so I didn't get a 12 week scan. I knew all along I was having girl and so did a few of my family and friends. I couldn't wait for my 20 week scan. I was happy when it showed I was having a girl. I would have been happy if I was having a boy but I knew I was having a girl. I had no sickness, craves or swelling. I didn't start to get a bump till I was about 7 months. My due date was 30th January I was a week late
Friday 6th February
I was was sleeping and at around 4am I woke up with pains in my belly. I couldn't get back to sleep because I couldn't get comfortable. As the day went on the pains got worse and worse. My mum phoned the rankin maternity unit at 3pm they said try and hang on a bit longer before I came in. At around 5pm my mum phoned them again to say we were coming in. we left at 5:45pm and got a taxi. When we got there they took my blood pressure and pulse and checked my baby's heartbeat. My blood pressure was really high and my baby's heartbeat was high they said I have to go to royal Alexandra hospital in paisley. They ambulance came straight away. It took them 7 minutes in the ambulance to take me, my mum and a midwife to paisley.
When we got there they put me on a baby trace monitor. And gave me gas and air. At 9:30pm a nurse came in to examine me. I was fully dilated and my water hadn't gone yet show she broke my waters. At 10:14pm I gave birth to my beautiful daughter. I took a picture of her and text my friends to let them know. My mum did the same. I was hungry so they gave me orange juice and toast my mum had some as well. I planed to breast feed they told me go for a bath and get cleaned up. I went for my bath at 11:30pm they told me to hurry up and be out by midnight because I need to be clean for my birthday. I was out by midnight.
Saturday 7th February my 22nd birthday.
I gave Louise her first feed when I was still in the labour ward. It took a few attempts get her to feed. After I feed her they took up to the maternity ward everyone else was sleeping I was trying to be quiet so I didn't wake anyone and I didn't. When I got settled I had to feed Louise again so I do and she sleep while feeding they helped me take her of and they put her down and told me to get some sleep and if she wakes up they will look after her unless she's hungry again. My mum had to stay over at the hospital because the last train back down to greenock left at 11pm and it was on 12:30am
Louise didn't wake up during the night. My mum came and woke me at 7am to say that was her going but she will be back up later to see us. I cant remember what time it was but some woman came around from the bounty group and took Louise's photograph. She was sleeping so I didn't want to wake her.
At 1pm my mum and gran came up to see us. They brought my birthday cards with them and congratulations of birth cards. They stayed till about 4pm. Later that day the other people had visitors again at night time I got upset and started to cry because it was my birthday and I was in hospital. I didn't feel like my birthday I cheered up when Louise woke up.
Sunday 8th February
it was snowing really heavy. I got upset in case I wasn't allowed home because I was getting the train home because no one in my family drives. They told me as long as she has a car seat its OK. I phoned my mum after I was told I was allowed home she said she will be up as soon as she can. My mum and gran came up at 2pm it took as awhile to work out how the car seat worked. When I put Louise in the car seat she fell asleep. We left a 3pm and phoned a taxi to take us to the train station we had to wait a while for the train because it was a Sunday and snowing.
When we got to greenock west station my mum saw two of her work mates they put a £1 in her car seat. We got a taxi to take my gran home they me Louise and my mum. It was 5pm when we got home and the next neighbours saw us coming along a put a £1 in her car seat. When we got inside home Louise was still sleeping so I left her in her car seat till she woke up.
She woke up for about ten minutes then went back to sleep she woke up again at 10pm. My mum held her and made baby noises. She started to suck my mums finger so I took her to feed her but she wouldn't so I back to the living room and my wanted her back about 15 minutes later she started to suck my mum finger again so I took her to feed her and she was hungry this time after I feed her I took back in the living room because I left her nappies and stuff in there. My mum wanted to change her and put her in her sleep suit. After my mum changed her and stuff I wanted her back I sat with her in my arms till she fell asleep. When she fell asleep I went to but her in her mosses basket but stood up too quickly and felt faint so my mum but her in her mosses basket and switched on the baby monitor. I heard her at 11:20pm and again at 11:40pm and then we went to bed at 12am.
Monday 9th February
We heard her again at 1am I heard her again but didn't no what the time was.
My mum woke up at 4:30am and went in the living room and put the fire on and got my feeding cushion, nappy, baby wipes and a sleep suite in case she pooped on it. My mum woke me at 5am to wake up Louise for her feed I went to to pick her up and she felt cold I took her in the living room and my mum said what's wrong I said she feels cold my mum looked at her and they phoned 99 they gave me step by step instructions for C.P.R I did that till the ambulance arrived. When they got it her they said they were sorry there is nothing they can do. I broke down in tears so did my mum. They told has the police are on there way because its procedure. My mum phoned my gran to tell her and my gran came over. The first thing the police said was don't blame yourself. A C.ID officer took me, my mum, my older brother and my gran back to my grans so they could remove louses from the house. I phoned my friends to let them know what had happened. I had to phoned some of my friends to let them know the good news and bad news.
When they took Louise to yorkhill hospital for an autopsy they estimated Louise's time of death to 4am. I have just recently got a letter from the procurator fiscal to say her death has been ruled cot death.
The funeral was on Monday 16th February at St Joseph's in greenock. My uncle Colin carried her coffin for me. She was buried in greenock cemetery in the rankin memorial garden.
My little angel was 2 days and 6 hours old
love you & miss you always & forever

Birthday Remembrance
Thinking of you on your birthday Louise
But that is nothing new
For no day dawns and no day ends
Without a thought of you.
We cannot send a birthday card,
Your hand we cannot touch,
But God will take our greetings
To the one we love so much.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY LOUISE

1st birthday
You're a special little angel
It's your birthday today,
you're loved far more than any words
can ever really say.
You're playing with your birthday toys,
On clouds way up above,
they've come from mummy and daddy,
with lots and lots of love.
We're sending lots of birthday wishes
now that this day has come,
it's the very very special day
that you are turning one
A Birthday In Heaven by Kris Smith
I heard you crying yesterday,
And felt your heart-sent love.
So I’m sending you this message
Now, from Heaven up above.
You’re wondering if I’ll celebrate
My Birthday (way up here).
I know you’re missing me today
I feel your essence near.
God planned a special day for me,
He told me with a wink.
He’d ordered me a special cake
(It’s Angel food, I think).
Balloons will fill the streets for me,
They float up through the clouds.
And we have lots of friends up here
That make us laugh out loud.
There is a Birthday carousel,
Jewelled horses ride the wind,
With music playing, oh so sweet…
The magic never ends.
I’ve made so many friends, you see
We laugh and play and sing.
We ride our bikes and play jump rope
And sleep in Angel’s wings.
We’ll have our cake and ice cream
And open gifts - SURPRISE!
But we don’t blow out our candles here
Instead, they light the skies.
With love from your little Angel XX
birthday girl

Light a candle for those we mourn.
Into a new life they will be born.
Do not look for them at the gravesite.
They are somewhere else radiating their beautiful light.
They have gone to a new world where there is no darkness, no pain.
Their light and essence will always remain.
Light a candle for those who have left this mortal place.
They are free to travel through time and space.
When we think of them, they are near.
When we sit in a beautiful garden. Their voices we hear.
When we listen to a divine symphony,
We close our eyes, their faces we see.
Light a candle for they have not really gone.
With each flickering flame, in your hearts they will always belong
LOVE PHILLIPPA AND JOHN XXXXX
