3



I stumbled upon this video about a month ago. Videos like this make my heart hurt for the women but also make me glad that they are talking about it. One of the hardest things for me with my miscarriage was the fact that it was, in many circles, an unacknowledged loss. I know I've said this all a million times. Death doesn't typically throw me off, but losing my baby did. And I felt like even my own mother thought I was slightly insane. Maybe it's that I'm normally so ridiculously open and this is something I wasn't supposed to be open about. I am so thankful for the wonderful women who I was surrounded with during those days, though. Thanks, girls.

Thinking of my little baby today, on what should be a third birthday... I'm happy to say what I feel now isn't mourning, just wishing I had the chance to chase her around the house.
