I have a hard time...

Heather • Thu, May 19

I have a hard time thinking of the baby I'm trying for as a rainbow baby even though that is technically what it is. I had an early mc in October. It was my first pregnancy.

Now we're back to trying (or schedules never synced up for ovulation time baby dancing) and I just can't think of this as a rainbow.

So many women have gotten so much farther into a pregnancy or even had a baby when they lost it. I was barely 6 weeks when I discovered my loss and only 4w5d when it stopped developing.

I'm also not trying to minimize my sadness or the sadness of those who had similar experiences but it just isn't how I think of my next pregnancy
