Reminiscing on the last two years....so grateful

Shannon

This time last year I had just experienced two losses. The second one occurred on the due date for my first. With Mothers Day approaching I was MISERABLE and beyond broken. I remember all week just wanting to crawl under a rock and cry. I was angry, jealous of nearly everyone and felt so alone. My sweet husband was so kind and understanding but I still felt so isolated. It was rough. My poor husband had no idea how to navigate Mother’s Day with me even though he usually has my stepdaughters get me a card and gift. I partly resented that they were with their mom the day of and partly wanted nothing to do with them that day anyway. There was no end in sight for my sadness... little did I know I still had a third loss to handle come July. Let’s just say it was an incredibly dark time in my life and I’m not really sure how I made it through.

Here I am today 32w1d pregnant with a sweet baby girl❤️ and it doesn’t really suffice to say I’m thankful. While I’m still going to mourn my lost babies tomorrow, I have this incredible little life that is finally growing and thriving inside of me. I wish I had her here to hold and kiss already but for now I’m happy to sit here and enjoy her sweet little kicks and movements❤️

Ladies please know that you aren’t alone tomorrow. So many women are feeling those same feelings of sadness and disappointment. Hang on and know that your story isn’t over yet.
