So if anyone reads this, first of all im gonna mention a baby thats no longer alive. Ive put out 2 warnings so now you know.
My job is a medical photographer. I get to take some pretty awsome pictures, and see some very interesting stuff. Today is going to be the hardest day/part of my job i have yet to endure. I dont have to do it if i do not want to, no one is forcing me, but in 30min im going to photograph an autopsy on a 5 month old baby  . I feel like I just need to do it you know? I cant make excuses forever and if i do it now maybe itll help me to get over the fear of it. If you guys could keep me in your prayers for strength id really appreciate it, this is going to be very tough.
Ive been having very vivid dreams latley, and anxiety issues. My life is just slowly slipping back into my depression rut, and im kinda scared that this is going to make it worse. Thank you to anyone who prays for strength for me. i could really use it.

 to what Danielle said and adding that I know you are a strong woman, I think this will be probably the hardest job you do, and it will make you much stronger. I'll be thinking about you. Be strong.

Thank you all very much. Its been put off until 2pm my time, we went in and did the first few pictures and stuff. There was a miscommunication, the baby for today is 32 wks  Normal pg, not sure what went wrong.
There is also a 38wkr in there waiting on mom's approval for the autopsy. another "normal" pg. My EDD for my first loss is Nov 17th.... I should have been about 38wks..... ugh gotta love the way god reminds you of the things youve lost huh?
Is it bed time yet?

You are strong! I am sorry it has to happen to anyone. Those poor moms.. I would have been 34 weeks with the baby I lost in May (or 12 with the one I lost 2 mos ago.)

My thoughts and prayers for strength are with you, Eleysia. I have to say I do not envy what you are doing at all. I hope those families find some peace today as well.

I'm so sorry, Eleysia. I can't imagine how hard that must have been for you. I know it sounds simplistic, but I really feel that babies just shouldn't die. It seems to be against the laws of nature, somehow. Big, big for you.

I hope that it went okay today Eleysia. I used to work for a cemetery/ funeral home and helping the parents who lost babies was always so hard.

Wow! You are so strong for even attempting this, I know I couldn't do it. I hope you found the strength to get you through what was undoubtedly a trying day. I will be praying for you to have some peace with this tremendous task that was set before you.
