Wednesday September 21 I gave birth to our rainbow baby. A beautiful little girl named Kaitlynn. After two late losses and a DH who wasn't willing to try again we successfully got pregnant and had our rainbow baby. Don't lose hope ladies. I really never believed I would hold my little girl and she is such a blessing. I know that all of you will some day (hopefully sooner rather than later) hold your rainbow babies as well.

Thank you so much for that!! It definitely helps to see success stories and I am so happy that you were able to get your rainbow baby! It is so hard to TTC and especially after a loss so seeing the graduates come back with stories of their miracles brings so much hope to those of us who are still struggling.

It is so true girls... While you are TTCAL it is so heartbreaking. I ache for every one of you which is why I don't leave. I know what each of you is going through and it breaks my heart.
I TTCAL for 2.5 years; RE said I would not be able to have a child without donor eggs. I beat all the odds and in just 8 weeks having a rainbow as well.
((hugs)) We all understand your pains and frustrations. It will happen - do not give up hope. Much love to you all.

This gave me that little bump of hope I needed this morning. Feeling terribly pessimistic about TTC today. Thank you for posting this, and of course congratulations on that sweet rainbow baby. I'm always so happy when TTCAL/PAL girls get to meet their rainbows.
