Today

Today is National Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day. The month of October is also Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month.

We lost our baby at 7 weeks in February 2008. My due date was October 17th. I am sad there is no first year birthday party to plan. That part is difficult, and that part is real. I do believe there are just some things in life you never "get over"...there is no passing of time that could ever make it "all better" as many like to suggest.

However, our child is in the presence of God and for that we are thankful.

Tonight at 7p.m. I will light a candle in honor of our baby. You can do the same to honor a child you have lost or in remembrance of all babies lost to pregnancy or infant loss.
