About Me
- Maria
- God has blessed me tremendously with an amazing husband, Doug, and two gorgeous little boys, Gavin and Joey. It has always been a dream of mine to have a large family but God may have other plans. I had a series of 6 consecutive early miscarriages when trying for baby #2. We are currently trying for baby #3 after our 7th miscarriage. I am faithful that God's plan is perfect, even when I am not happy about it. I love comments and meeting new followers so please don't be shy!

15 Weeks
I am actually almost 16 weeks but I just haven't felt much like posting. I have been struggling with the fact that not everyone I wish was pregnant is. One thing that might be even harder for me this week has been that not every woman who gets pregnant gets to stay that way.
A dear woman that I have never ever met became pregnant about a week after I did. When I read the words that at a routine appointment she learned that her baby passed away at almost 13 weeks, I crumbled. To say that I am heartbroken for her is an understatement. I actually just teared up writing that. I am just beside myself with hurt. It just isn't fair.
What makes it even worse is that I know that I will be her reminder. It is hard to put into words how this is such an awful place to be. I am happy that my pregnancy is looking healthy, but I am just crushed that I am that girl that she will likely see as the reminder of where she should be. I just really wish I could do something... There just is nothing to do to take away her pain. It just plain sucks.
My next post will likely have a gender reveal so stay tuned...

I love comments but if you are seeing this, I'm afraid that no one will see your comment. On the blog, I use Disqus commenting and it sometimes takes longer to load. Also, if you ask me a specific question, I am able to respond to those using Disqus. If you ask here, I am unable to reply. But, again, I love to hear from readers so however you comment, I thank you!!
