Sad
Today I feel sad.
When I found out I was pregnant in December 2004 my due date given was August 12th, 2005.
God had a different plan for our lives and I had a miscarriage.
I love the life I have today and I wouldn’t want to change anything. I know if I hadn’t had that miscarriage that we probably wouldn’t have Hailey. And I can’t even imagine our lives without Hailey. I am very thankful for the way our lives have turned out. But, I still can’t help but think about the 3rd birthday we would be celebrating today if the miscarriage had never happened.
So, today- I just feel sad.

This post brought tears to my eyes! I’m sorry for your loss. You may have Hailey and she is your world, but that still doesn’t mean you can’t suffer the loss of another. My heart and love goes out to you!!!

Stay strong.. I will be thinking of you today and will keep you in my thoughts all day!! And remember it’s ok to feel sad, but think of the great times you’ve had with your little one to make yo smile!

Sorry to read about this. I do feel the same way and was in the same situation. Could not imagine life without my little girl right now.

It is okay to be sad. You don’t have to stop mourning the loss of one child just because you have another. To me, it isn’t any less tragic to lose a child before they are born then after birth- it is still a loss. I see it as the same pain. No one would expect you to not be sad if this child would have been born and then you lost him/her. So you don’t have to not be sad just because this angel didn’t make it to earth. I will be thinking of you and praying for you.

I have never experienced this….so I can not begin to understand. I am sorry that you and Rich went through this.
But, I can tell you that that child is waiting for you. That child is not in your past but in your future. They are waiting for you to catch up to them. And, scripture says, that in heaven we will know and be known. So when you walk through those great big gates….you will know….and they will welcome you home. What a reunion that will be! You will finally wrap your arms around the one you have been longing for.
I love you girl….be encouraged.
