I'll probably be MIA through the weekend and early next week. I'll still come to read, but won't post much. This weekend is the 5th anniversary of losing my baby, Riley. People tell me that I should be able to get over it because had I not lost Riley, I wouldn't have Kayley (Riley was due July 5th, found out I was pregnant with Kayley July 1st) but that really doesn't help. Anyway, I'll be back in full force once I'm over the funk for the year.

you have every right to miss Riley! I lost my first pregnancy at 4 months, and my second one at 3 months, so I understand. Not quite the same but it is heartbreaking none the less. People who have never experienced it just can't understand.

I was still under 10 weeks when we lost Riley. Some people think since was so newly pregnant it shouldn't bother me as much. I think those people are idiots. LOL Riley was the one pregnancy that was planned. None of our 3 kids (stepson or two biokids) were planned. Not that I love them less, just makes losing the pregnancy harder because we tried for 3 months to get pregnant. (not as long as some try but yeah)

I tried for 2 months with my first pregnancy, 7 months with my second, and 3 months with my 3rd. I know the feeling! After the first loss, I thought it would never happen again.
