Baby steps

I am starting to really miss our "baby". Initially the miscarriage wasn't really that hard for me. Yes, I was shocked and disappointed and fearful it would happen again but I coped and was feeling "ok". I am obviously still "ok" but growing sadder and sadder thinking about how I would almost be entering my second trimester. I know January is going to be really hard, right smack around new years. Hopefully I will be carrying a healthy little one by then!
I am still taking things one day at a time. I am trying to pay more attention to Noah and spend more quality time with him. My husband and I are trying not to raise our voices. This week has been positive and I keep telling myself rome wasn't built in a day.

As someone who has had many miscarriages, I can tell you that this grief is very common and you are most certainly not alone. It is after a few weeks goes by and everyone has moved on (and expects you to move on as well) that the grief always seems to hit the hardest. I always found ways to memorialize my little lost babies, and that seemed to help. We have planted trees, released balloons, made a garden, etc.

Thinking of you and your baby.
