It has been over a year since my loss. I cancelled all the email updates about how far along I would be/how the baby is developing shortly after my loss. I can't seem to get Graco to stop updating me, though. I got an email today from Graco, "Welcome to your 9th month of parenthood" or something of that sort. I have cancelled getting emails from them multiple times. I try to change my email preferences and their website tells me that my email address is not in their system.

I finally got fed up and sent their customer service department a very unhappy note telling them that if they don't stop sending me the emails, I am going to boycott their products when I start buying baby stuff for my current (thankfully healthy!) pregnancy. I don't know if I was a little excessively b****y because of hormones (I've been a little nutty lately) but I just don't need their reminders! It makes me so depressed (plus they're off by a month).

Not to mention, it isn't like I'm going to just forget about my angel without their insensitive reminders.

I'm sorry, I know I haven't popped in here in a while. I thought you ladies might understand my frustration, though. *sigh* I think DH thought I was overreacting.

I completely understand. It took me forever to figure out how to switch my Baby Center and What to Expect When Your Expecting apps and e-mails to show this pregnancy instead of my last one.

With how common miscarriage is, these companies really need to do a better job of catering to our needs. I'm sorry you're still having such a hard time getting them to stop.

That was one of the hardest things for me. Every time I turned around I was getting an email or actual mail about one of my babies that should have been I called multiple times and finally I threatened to sue them for harassment before I did not receive them anymore.

My thoughts exactly.

I did get an email back from Graco today. All it said was, "We apologize for this inconvenience and will forward this to the webmaster to have you removed from the email system."

I hope this will be the end of it.

That ^ is ridiculous! It shouldn't take a threat to sue just to get them to stop sending emails. Even if they don't care about our feelings, it is bad business on their part.

I know! The part that had me the most mad was they were sending me it for 2 pregnancies and one for a newborn. All of them losses and they did not care.

I hope that will be the end of it for you now! It's a shame you have to go through so much for them to not send it to you.
