When I went in for my ultrasound, I was supposed to be 7w6d. Baby measured 7w1d and had no heartbeat. I was devastated. It was a surprise pregnancy but we wanted that baby so bad. I chose to get a D&C because I couldn’t go through the pain of another natural miscarriage. I got the procedure on Jan 24. I have since healed well and have tried to go on as best as I could.

Then comes Valentine’s Day. This was the day I wanted to announce our pregnancy. I never got the chance. But I see so many other friends announce their pregnancies. I got past that day and get to the weekend. My husband’s cousin announces her pregnancy. Due in September. I too was supposed to be due in September. I broke down last night and couldn’t sleep.

I thought I was doing okay.
