Does an unborn child go directly into heaven?

[Nun_ofthe_Above]

I am a little disquieted on this subject, despite the positive reassurances. There is a lot of thought being offered, and I once followed the train of thought that death of an unborn child, or the death of an infant (unbaptized), would still see them go to heaven, eventually.
I am not so sure though, after reading Wisdom of Solomon 3:10-19, 4:1-9.
(I will allow you to read these passages for yourselves)
I would love to hear what people think. I won’t go into detail, but this subject is very close to my heart, so I am not trivializing this thread, by interjecting my concerns.

Peace and Love to All

I think it is doubtful that those who go to limbo will all eventually go to heaven but this need not be the cause of any disquiet because even if they don’t eventually go to heaven, they are not separated from God and they are not seperated from you should you go to heaven. The persons in heaven are very able to see the persons in limbo.

When a child doesn’t understand something his parents or father is doing, he may be troubled at times. But if the parents or father is a good father then he ought to just trust the plans that his father has made, trusting in his greater wisdom and knowledge and kindness. Our heavenly Father is not only a good father, but the best of fathers and so he is infinitely deserving of our trust. Even if (as is the case) He does not make His plans fully known to us, we can trust that they are wise and good since He who is Wisdom and Goodness cannot do but otherwise.

Of course they go directly to heaven, as they’ve commited no wrong.
