spoke too soon

Well remember a few days ago when I was talking about being pregnant, lets just pretend that never happened...
Had a miscarriage yesterday. 12 weeks.
Just thought I would use the blog to let everyone know so I can hopefully avoid it face to face as much as possible.
I'm actually doing better than I would have thought I would. I kinda had some vague symptoms and had to wait a bit to see a doctor and then it all happened on it's own. So with the waiting time I kinda came to terms with it.

These two have helped immensely without even knowing it.
And of course Brad. I can't even express how much. I love you B.

When the first symptoms stared I knelt down to pray and the words just wouldn't come to me. I knew at that moment the baby was gone. I prayed for strength and comfort and have received it tenfold. My usual pessimistic attitude has turned glass half full and I feel quite peaceful. Very very sad, but peaceful at the same time. I feel loved by my husband, by my family, by my friends, and by my Father in Heaven.

Oh Whit and Brad :( Our hearts ache for you...we've had that experience and empathize completely. Our best advice is to let yourselves grieve when you feel the need to and take lots of joy and comfort in your boys. We love you. Let us know if you need anything.

Whit I missed the last post and then I tuned in for this sad news. I'm so sorry Whit. It's funny how bad things can teach us things if we let them. Like how much you love your kids and your husband, not to mention the man upstairs (k that sounded funny) I wish I could do something for ya but I'll keep you in our prayers. Miscarriages are a weird sort of emotional roller coaster cause it's better off for the baby but then it's just this feeling of loss for something that you barely even had. So sorry Whit, love ya
