My twin died in utero when my mother was carrying us. I've always felt a missing part of me. I never got to know her & it still pains me years & years later.
I am so sorry for your family losing Magnolia. She will always be your daughter and the kids' sister. How special you were given the time to hold her and grieve, and say goodbye. Blessed be, Magnolia, your family loves you.
Your sweet Maggie will always be your Christmas angel. How special she chose that day to come and you were able to spend so much quality time with her. Continued prayers for Baby B!
Dear Lauren, Mark, Hunter, Bennett, Weston, Everett, Miss Luna and the extended families. Sending our deepest heartfelt condolences. Maggie will be forever in our hearts. Sleep peacefully precious Girl and watch over your little sister Baby B. Until we meet again. 🙏
I was an early baby girl, too. I was also born at 30 weeks. I weighed 2 pounds 10 ounces. I had a few setbacks too because when I was born in the mid 50's they did not have this modern technology. My mother's waters broke at 12 weeks and she was in hospital till I was born. I stayed in hospital for about 3.5 months and then I was 5 pounds, my left side was very slightly paralysed, which left me with sight problems and heating problems. Glasses and heating aids fixed that. As a child I was clumsy but I grew into it all. I didn't walk until I was two, but I could talk really real. I'm almost 70 now and have had a long and eventful life with 5 of my own children 1 girl and 4 boys. Life can be unpredictable sometimes but you gotta roll with it. Thanks for sharing. 😊
Our naturally occurring triplet grandchildren went through similar circumstances. Two identical girls and a boy. The two girls were diagnosed with severe TAPS. They were unable to do surgery because of placement but did send them to Cincinnati where they have blood transfusions to donor baby through mom’s belly. They were all given about a 5% chance of survival. They were delivered at 30 weeks. The donor girl has had brain surgery, cerebral palsy and drs. Didn’t think she would ever walk. Today, they are 5 years old, in kindergarten. Donor girl runs and jumps. I am so very sorry about your difficult loss.🙏🏻❤️
I am so so sorry for your loss. I really feel your pain and know the heartache you are all enduring. My heart is breaking for you all. I gave birth at only 20weeks and my beautiful little angel Leanne passed at 3 days old. The sole day that you and Mark spent with Maggie, just holding her and loving her will be the most cherished memories you will ever have. Our little girls are in the arms of Jesus, and this is our comfort, until we are all together again. My prayers are with you all ❤
What a Beautiful day for Maggie to be born. She truly will be a Christmas Angel forever in your family. Blessings to all of you and continued prayers for her sister.❤
So much love to all of you. I wasn’t aware that you could deliver one baby and not both. Baby Magnolia(Maggie)was and will always be your Christmas baby. It wasn’t the outcome to you hoped and prayed for, but a Christmas miracle did happen that day. Blessings to all of your family. Her birth day being on Christmas will always be special.
What a beautiful name magnolia aka Maggie ❤my she be wrapped in the arms of our lord I am happy that you were able to have the opportunity to to spend tender moments with Maggie, I think although very hard and distressing for you, in the future you will be able to look back on it and recall the bittersweet tender moments you spent with Maggie ❤
Sending many prayers and hugs your way. May God wrap his arms around your entire family! Magnolia will forever be your sweet angel! She will forever remain in all of our hearts!
My heart is breaking 💔😢along with yours. Maggie was born on our Savior’s birthday, wow, a blessing in itself. Baby B is blessed as well, continuing to grow. My love and prayers are with you and your family. You are a very strong woman and I am sending you continuous strength and positivity.
OH sweetheart I am so sorry for your loss. I lost correction we lost our only daughter after thirty one hours from birth . I have prayed daily since then. That no parent ever has to go through this pain again. I guess I just didn't pray hard enough. In any case I feel you pain and fully understand where you are. Please know you are not alone with your grief. Those of us who have been here are sending love,prayers and hugs for you all.
As someone who experienced losing a twin in 2023, I am with you in solidarity. My goodness, I never resonated with a video more. Thank you so much for sharing your story, your courage and bravery will help so many people - more than you’ll ever know. Sending you and your family all the love and light.
I've cried along with you watching this video. Precious Maggie will now be a guardian angel for her brothers and her sister as well as you and Mark. She's now in such a loving place with God. I will continue to send you prayers.
Lauren, this video is beautiful. It shows so much bravery, dignity, character, grace and love. Thank you for sharing your Magnolia with us. We are with you and your family on this journey. Sending hugs your way.......
You and Mark are so brave, when your grief must be overwhelming. What a beautiful name you chose for your precious baby. Wonderful that you had that quiet, special time with her.
I love the automatic soothing motion of bouncing baby Maggie. As a mom that resonates so much. My mother lost a premature baby 30 years ago. It took a long time for some of us to find peace. Even though the baby was number 11 out of 13 she was loved and mourned and missed by her parents and siblings. May the Lord bless you and our Heavenly Father comfort you in His arms.
You are a very special person and with your faith you will all be changed in a special way. May the love of your boys and the trust you put in Jesus be with at this time.
I am heart broken for you, but also found Magnolia being born on Christmas day , sets her aside as an angel chosen by God. I know you have a strong faith, and i was lucky to be involved in special care when my baby girl was born with a rare syndrome, we had the best love and tender care, so my husband at the time was a chaplain in the area, and took over the special care unit, as a way to give back, so many hard stories but also so much special love. I pray you have a less traumatic few days weeks, and get to hold Maggies baby sister in your arms. Jesus said bring all the little children unto me, and he blessed them. ❤
Hugs and prayers to all of you. Such a blessing that Maggie was able to physically be held and loved by you! When I lost my son, Kristopher, in 1980, they did not have the knowledge of bereavement that they do now. I went on to specialize in the field and during my training, God allowed me to come full circle and be present with a mom delivering her baby girl that had died in utero. God is powerful as he provides us with just what we need. Together, that mother and I mourned our babies, me 15 years after that tragic time! Hugs Lauren, blessings will come from so many of the moments that are heartbreaking and God has you all in the palm of his hand!💝🙏🏻🎄
Dear loved ones, you will never know how many people you have helped by sharing your journey. So thankful that the medical community provides parents the time they need with their angels as this wasn't the practice years ago. Continued prayers for you & the family and the continued growth of Maggie's twin.
I cried along with you. Sharing your story has been so emotional and spiritual. It was so hard for you and Mark to have the time with Maggie but you were able to connect with your angel. May God keep watch on your family.
we lost both our identical twin girls almost 50 years ago, and the loss still is there. i had to focus on being thankful we had them even for such a brief time.
I ache for your loss. How very special that our Lord gave her to you on His birthday and now she is forever in His arms . Prayers for all of you. Thank you for sharing, this will mean so much to so many n🙏🏻
What a beautiful tribute to Maggie. I had no idea that you could give birth to one baby and still be pregnant either! Thank you for sharing your journey with us. Prayers for continued strength through the remainder of your pregnancy. So happy that Maggie got her own special birthday to always be remembered. Hoping Baby B will have a safe delivery. Hugs to you and your family. Stay strong Lauren. ❤❤
Such a blessing for her to be born on Christmas Day. My prayers are for the whole family and prayers for little angle Magnolia to be cared for, loved, and treasured in Heaven. We are all with you.
My heart sank the minute I saw you in a hospital gown Lauren. There are no words I can express to you and your family now except I love you all. I don't question God's workings and pray that you and Mark and the family find some sort of solace. You're in my prayers.
My daughter was in a panic mode, she cried as she was so afraid Lauren had lost both babies. How sad this mission is that Lauren has had to endure. 🙏We pray for BABY B🙏
Goodness. That just broke my heart. I am so so so sorry. I cried right along with you and for you. My condolences to you and your family. Your strength and resilience is amazing.
God is absolutely good! Although we don’t understand now, he has amazing plans for us! Maggie came on Christmas Day, as an angel. God alleviated all your concerns about her getting the time, attention, love and devotion she deserves! Each girl will have their own special day and her sister’s birthday won’t be an anniversary of mourning. God bless you all, Hamm family, as you navigate this extremely challenging, devastating, and yet miraculously wonderful time! Maggie, you are so loved!
You are the bravest woman, I’ve never cried so hard. You are an amazing mother and I pray for all of you in this time of grief and this time of love ….
What a miracle! Many will not understand but for precious Maggie to be “born” on Christmas is such a gift from God. May you continue to be blessed and realize his miracles. ❤
God please watch over this lovely family. Now more than ever they need you on their side. I cant bare to imagine how you are feeling right now but please know we are all praying for you for baby girl and for the whole family. R.i.p angel girl Maggie. ❤❤ forever an angel by your side ❤❤
I lost a baby in august at 20 weeks because he stopped growing i was crying right along with you and know exactly what you mean when you say its like a weight on your chest. Maggie will always be with you and im praying that everything goes smoothly with Baby B sending love from Scotland
You are helping so many other families right now even though it is so heartbreaking to share and experience. Sending so much love to you and your family 🥰🇦🇺💕💕
Dear Lauren and Mark thank you for sharing this special day with us. Magnolia is with the lord on both there birthdays this is very special. Magnolia Lynda is a beautiful name and I'm glad you got to spend time loving her all to yourself, I'm sure the boys love there little sister. My prayers are with you everyday. Love from Australia 🇦🇺👃❤❤🌹🌹
I had cried tears along with you. Sweet Maggie ( I love her name so much) wanted to share Christmas with her family. Even if as a precious sweet angel. She will share her special day with Jesus. And forever be a Christmas Angel.
I lost my son at 18 in a car wreck. That day, my life changed forever. Loss of a child no matter how old is something no parent should have to go through. My prayers are with all of you!! You are so strong to tell and share your story with us. May God Bless you all!!! Lots of love and prayers from Kansas!
I'm so sorry that you lost your son so tragically. My heart goes out to you. After losing my infant triplets, I eventually found the Compassionate Friends support group. I finally was able to give my daughters a voice without judgment. What a wonderful group of people because each member has sadly walked in our shoes in one way or another. I have certainly learned that some lives are measured in utero, some in minutes, hours, days, weeks and years. The pain we feel is the same because these lives were cut short. Love and prayers from British Columbia
@@SherryDyck Thank you so much! Sorry sorry for your loss. I totally agree no matter the age it changes your life forever. It is a void that can never be replaced. Lots of prayers!
So very sorry but so thankful you were able to love on,make memories and have the time needed to meet Maggie. My heart breaks. Thank you for being vulnerable with us. Prayers for you all during this time. ❤
I am so sorry for your heartache. Maggie is so special to so many of us, she will not be forgotten. A Christmas birth is beautiful, how lucky can one be to share this day of celebration with our Lord and Savior. ❤️
My heart goes out to you all ! I am also crying. ! I will keep you in prayer and that you will deliver a miracle baby! May God be near you and comfort you at this time.
Oh Lauren, thank you for sharing your story with us. I had a placental abruption at 30 weeks and it was the scariest thing I've ever experienced. My 30 weeker spent 6 weeks in the nicu but is now almost 6 months old and is doing great. You have been so brave and strong during this whole process. The nicu reddit community has been the most helpful resource for me throughout the whole process. Sending you the biggest hugs! I also wanted to add - thank you so much for sharing your precious Magnolia with us. I'm so glad you could have that time with just her. Everything else is hard to accept/understand I'm sure, but that alone time with her is something you'll always hold in your heart. My heart is just so heavy for you.
Lauren, I just want to say you did such a wonderful job sharing the first part of your birth story, and taking care of yourself and your family. You should be so proud. You are a wonderful mama.
Dear Lauren, Mark, Hunter, Bennett, Weston, Everett, your parents and families. My heart breaks for your forever loss of your sweet daughter Maggie. My God bless you all. ❤
Dear friends... i am so very sorry for your loss. This has to be one of the hardest things to get through... but i wanna say merry Christmas maggie and mommy and daddy and big brothers. She has a special birthday for a reason. And this day like you said will forever be changed for you all! May god bless you guide you and keep you in his arms . Rest rest rest! Baby b is so very blessed and loved ❤... i am saying prayers for you all
Dear Family, my heart is broken for you as you go through this sorrow. But through it all, you have amazed me at your consideration and care for those of us who follow you and recognize we are all hurting d so take the time to reach out.with you. You and Mark are such an inspiration, for your parenting skills and the life you live serving our Lord. Please feel these prayers and k now you are squarely in the beautiful hands of our Savior. He will heal your tears and according to his will, also bring you the joy you so deserve. God bless each of you. ❤
So sorry for the loss of Magnolia Linda. I pray that her sister is born healthy at the appropriate time. She will always have Magnolia as her guardian angel. Praying for you and your entire family as you await the birth of Baby B.
Praying for you and ALLof your family. Grieving is hard work and not everyone will grieve at the same rate or in the same way. Praying for comfort and a healthy baby girl! Sending love hugs and prayers!
Good evening from W Australia. Thank you so much for having the strength to share your very sad time. Maggie will always be with you. What a tiny little soul she is? I send love and prayers for your continued strength, waiting for your second daughter to be born.

She is such a strong little fighter! She's going to be sonething perfect! My prayers are with her and you guys. God bless. ×

Lauren, Mark, Hunter, Bennett, Weston, Everett and extended family, My heart aches for you all. I count it a privilege that you shared such an intensely personal journey with us. I am crying along with you.
Lauren I don't know how to explain how amazing yet sad Maggie made her biggest big sister sacrifice by being delivered prior to her sister and allowing all medical attention to her! It just seems so profound. ❤ God has your family ....continued blessings
Oh Lauren. I don’t even know what to say. God knew you needed that time with Sweet Magnolia. That you and Mark needed the one on one time with her to hold her and grieve with no other distractions. And born on the day our Savior was also born. ❤ Continued prayers that Baby A can stay safe in the womb a little longer, with her big sister’s help, watching over her. ❤️
What a beautiful name for your beautiful daughter. 🙏🏼🥰💜🎄Continued prayers and well wishes for a safe eventual delivery of her sister! Love and best wishes to your family.🙏🏼
Oh Lauren. What a Christmas Gift in Maggie. Her spirit lives with all of you and she will walk with you. So happy that you shared Christmas Day with her. ❤
I am so sorry for your loss of your little angel Magnolia. May God bless you and your family. May He give you comfort during this most difficult time. May He continue to protect Baby B. Prayers for Baby B, you and your family.

Aww this is so emotional. I love her name, little Magnolia. I can only imagine how emotional it is for you and your entire Lauren but I salute you. You are stellar and God will see you all through. I will continue to keep you all in my prayers ❤🙏🙏
Stay strong and my heart goes out to you and your family. Mark, Lauren and the boys know that your precious baby girl is in Gods arms. Life has some trials we don't understand and we hurt and somehow we get through them. Sweet precious Magnolia know you were loved and wanted.
My heart aches for all of you...Magnolia is up in heaven with the Lord and she can feel your love and hugs... I am touched that you shared something so personal with us... We are lifting you all up in our prayers... We love you all...❤
My thoughts and prayers are with baby b, you, Mark and the boys. I hope you find peace in knowing your beautiful Magnolia will always be your Christmas Angel watching over you all.
Hi Lauren, woke up with you on my heart first thing this morning....thought to myself, she had her babies...opened my youtube account and your video was front and center (posted 3 hrs prior). Clearly the LORD placed you on my heart. He sees you and cares so deeply for your family. What a beautiful gift to get to hold your sweet Magnolia! Such a precious little girl....safe in the arms of Jesus! Trusting that Baby B will come in His perfect timing! Much Love! ❤️
Sending you Lauren and Mark love and best wishes. Magnolia is such a beautiful name for your precious little girl. May she rest in peace. Please look after yourself Lauren, rest and take all the time you need. Lots of love, Ruth xx

I was an early baby girl, too. I was also born at 30 weeks. I weighed 2 pounds 10 ounces. I had a few setbacks too because when I was born in the mid 50's they did not have this modern technology. My mother's waters broke at 12 weeks and she was in hospital till I was born. I stayed in hospital for about 3.5 months and then I was 5 pounds, my left side was very slightly paralysed, which left me with sight problems and heating problems. Glasses and heating aids fixed that. As a child I was clumsy but I grew into it all. I didn't walk until I was two, but I could talk really real.

Haha forgot to add I was also born in December just after Christmas...the 30th.
Our naturally occurring triplet grandchildren went through similar circumstances. Two identical girls and a boy. The two girls were diagnosed with severe TAPS. They were unable to do surgery because of placement but did send them to Cincinnati where they have blood transfusions to donor baby through mom’s belly. They were all given about a 5% chance of survival.
They were delivered at 30 weeks. The donor girl has had brain surgery, cerebral palsy and drs. Didn’t think she would ever walk.
Today, they are 5 years old, in kindergarten. Donor girl runs and jumps.
I am so very sorry about your difficult loss.🙏🏻❤️
I am so so sorry for your loss. I really feel your pain and know the heartache you are all enduring. My heart is breaking for you all.
I gave birth at only 20weeks and my beautiful little angel Leanne passed at 3 days old. The sole day that you and Mark spent with Maggie, just holding her and loving her will be the most cherished memories you will ever have. Our little girls are in the arms of Jesus, and this is our comfort, until we are all together again. My prayers are with you all ❤
This is heart wrenching, God bless all of you. Remember Maggie is in heaven now and with our lord.
What a Beautiful day for Maggie to be born. She truly will be a Christmas Angel forever in your family. Blessings to all of you and continued prayers for her sister.❤
I have cried through this whole video. I'm praying for you, Mark, Baby B and the boys. I am so sorry for your loss
Me as well. I had to pause the video a few times.
Me too. Sending strength and prayers to you and your beautiful family.
So much love to all of you.
I wasn’t aware that you could deliver one baby and not both.
Baby Magnolia(Maggie)was and will always be your Christmas baby. It wasn’t the outcome to you hoped and prayed for, but a Christmas miracle did happen that day.
Blessings to all of your family. Her birth day being on Christmas will always be special.

I had cried tears along with you. Sweet Maggie ( I love her name so much) wanted to share Christmas with her family. Even if as a precious sweet angel. She will share her special day with Jesus. And forever be a Christmas Angel.
❤🙏 I am so sorry your sweet angel Maggie gained her wings. God Bless
I lost my son at 18 in a car wreck. That day, my life changed forever. Loss of a child no matter how old is something no parent should have to go through. My prayers are with all of you!! You are so strong to tell and share your story with us. May God Bless you all!!! Lots of love and prayers from Kansas!
I'm so sorry that you lost your son so tragically. My heart goes out to you. After losing my infant triplets, I eventually found the Compassionate Friends support group. I finally was able to give my daughters a voice without judgment. What a wonderful group of people because each member has sadly walked in our shoes in one way or another. I have certainly learned that some lives are measured in utero, some in minutes, hours, days, weeks and years. The pain we feel is the same because these lives were cut short. Love and prayers from British Columbia
@@SherryDyck Thank you so much! Sorry sorry for your loss. I totally agree no matter the age it changes your life forever. It is a void that can never be replaced. Lots of prayers!
So very sorry but so thankful you were able to love on,make memories and have the time needed to meet Maggie. My heart breaks. Thank you for being vulnerable with us. Prayers for you all during this time. ❤
I am so sorry for your heartache. Maggie is so special to so many of us, she will not be forgotten. A Christmas birth is beautiful, how lucky can one be to share this day of celebration with our Lord and Savior. ❤️
My heart goes out to you all !
I am also crying. !
I will keep you in prayer and that you will deliver a miracle baby!
May God be near you and comfort you at this time.
im so sorry glad it was special for maggie and u got memories with her prayers for u and your family you are so strong god bless
Oh Lauren, thank you for sharing your story with us. I had a placental abruption at 30 weeks and it was the scariest thing I've ever experienced. My 30 weeker spent 6 weeks in the nicu but is now almost 6 months old and is doing great. You have been so brave and strong during this whole process. The nicu reddit community has been the most helpful resource for me throughout the whole process. Sending you the biggest hugs!
I also wanted to add - thank you so much for sharing your precious Magnolia with us. I'm so glad you could have that time with just her. Everything else is hard to accept/understand I'm sure, but that alone time with her is something you'll always hold in your heart.
My heart is just so heavy for you.
Aw❤ I had a 31wk born in August 2023. She was in NICU almost 8wks and is almost 5mo now. ❤
Lauren, I just want to say you did such a wonderful job sharing the first part of your birth story, and taking care of yourself and your family. You should be so proud. You are a wonderful mama.
Dear Lauren, Mark, Hunter, Bennett, Weston, Everett, your parents and families. My heart breaks for your forever loss of your sweet daughter Maggie. My God bless you all. ❤

Lauren, Mark, Hunter, Bennett, Weston, Everett and extended family,
My heart aches for you all. I count it a privilege that you shared such an intensely personal journey with us. I am crying along with you.
Lauren I don't know how to explain how amazing yet sad Maggie made her biggest big sister sacrifice by being delivered prior to her sister and allowing all medical attention to her! It just seems so profound. ❤ God has your family ....continued blessings
Oh Lauren. I don’t even know what to say. God knew you needed that time with Sweet Magnolia. That you and Mark needed the one on one time with her to hold her and grieve with no other distractions. And born on the day our Savior was also born. ❤ Continued prayers that Baby A can stay safe in the womb a little longer, with her big sister’s help, watching over her. ❤️
Sending prayers to you and your family. My heart is broken for you. Magnolia is a beautiful name for a special little angel girl.
What a beautiful name for your beautiful daughter. 🙏🏼🥰💜🎄Continued prayers and well wishes for a safe eventual delivery of her sister! Love and best wishes to your family.🙏🏼
My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. I’m so sorry for your loss. 💕
Oh Lauren. What a Christmas Gift in Maggie. Her spirit lives with all of you and she will walk with you. So happy that you shared Christmas Day with her. ❤
I am so sorry for your loss of your little angel Magnolia. May God bless you and your family. May He give you comfort during this most difficult time. May He continue to protect Baby B. Prayers for Baby B, you and your family.
Sweetie my heart goes out to you and the family God bless you all
Thank you Lauren for sharing this very sad news, my thoughts and prayers are with you, Mark the boy, family and friends at this time. Take care and know that you are in Jesus's Hands.❤😢🙏👍

Hi Lauren, woke up with you on my heart first thing this morning....thought to myself, she had her babies...opened my youtube account and your video was front and center (posted 3 hrs prior). Clearly the LORD placed you on my heart. He sees you and cares so deeply for your family. What a beautiful gift to get to hold your sweet Magnolia! Such a precious little girl....safe in the arms of Jesus! Trusting that Baby B will come in His perfect timing! Much Love! ❤️
praying for you and your family, hoping for a safe delivery of your baby girl.
Sending you Lauren and Mark love and best wishes.
Magnolia is such a beautiful name for your precious little girl. May she rest in peace.
Please look after yourself Lauren, rest and take all the time you need.
Lots of love, Ruth xx
