Ada Nicodemou opens up about the tragic stillbirth of her son in this week's issue of New Idea, on sale now.

There are small reminders every day. A red rose blooming, a baby’s laughter, the sight of two small brothers playing.

It’s been nine months since Ada Nicodemou’s life changed forever when her precious baby Harrison was stillborn, leaving her to grieve what might have been with husband Chrys Xipolitas.

For Ada – who struggled to have two-year-old son Johnas through IVF – a second unplanned, unassisted pregnancy seemed a beautiful blessing. She didn’t feel well, but had started to recover and look forward to the new arrival when heartbreak struck suddenly last August 7.

"We will never be the same people we were, and I hate that," the Home And Away favourite says softly, tears in her eyes.

"How do you cope with this? How do you cope? For both of us, what’s upsetting is that this is part of our story now. It’s something you never imagine. It’s just one of the most unnatural things you could ever go through."

She pauses, thinking carefully about her next words.

"It’s not that I will never be a complete person again, but I just wonder... How can I say? I just feel I can never be completely happy again because this has happened."
