The little Eleanor went too early

One night before everything seemed to be in perfect order. But on September 11, little Eleanor Josephine was born dead. Her heart had stopped beating. It is an incomparable shock to her parents.

Everything seemed to be in good order when Natalie Morgan went to bed on the evening of September 10th. There was nothing to indicate that something was wrong. The expectant mother felt her baby daughter move in her stomach.

The next morning, however, Natalie made a terrible discovery. Her unborn daughter had stopped moving. With her own ultrasound machine, she could not find her baby's heartbeat. Driven by the worst possible suspicion, she immediately went to the hospital with her husband.

This confirmed Natalie's terrible idea. The doctors told her what she already knew: her daughter was no longer alive. "I always remember that moment, it's an all-absorbing feeling that almost suffocates me, this memory will haunt me for the rest of my life, and at that moment I felt trapped as if the ceiling was falling and I could not breathe, beat myself, screamed, threw things around me ... and then part of me died with her, I could not help it, my body was supposed to protect her, instead he brought you over. "

Little Eleanor Josephine was born "sleeping" on September 11th. This is how her mother writes herself. Natalie Morgan and her husband Brian were allowed to spend six hours together with their daughter. These moving pictures of the star child were created.

They asked the mourning parents to stay overnight. But Natalie knew that she would not stand it. She could not bear to see her daughter like that. "I knew she could not feel pain, but I felt her for her, I had reached my breaking point, I wanted to die with her."

Just three days after the birth of Eleanor, her funeral took place. "Everything was wrong." For Natalie and her husband, it's "a nightmare that will never end".

Natalie Morgan decided to publish the photos of her stillborn daughter on Facebook to tell other parents how grateful they can be for their children.

"All I ask is that when you experience difficult moments with your babies, when you think you are going crazy and you feel like you are at the end of your strength, if you can only sleep one or two hours a night, then your child does not beg for you to finally fall asleep and does not gloat in your exhaustion and frustration, but say thank you for your child - even if it is difficult for you at the moment.

Please also say a prayer for all the mothers who, like me, lost their children much too soon. Say a prayer for my sweet, sweet Eleanor, who has never been allowed to experience life outside of my belly. Do it for Eleanor. And does it for her mother, who loves and misses her beyond measure. "
