We found out I was 5 weeks pregnant on July 17th. We were thrilled and shocked. It was our first medicated cycle with fertility drugs. With Zach it took over 2 years and 12 medicated cycles so we assumed it would take awhile again. We had shared our happy news with my parents and Chris' parents but were waiting to tell everyone else until after August 14th when we would first see the heartbeat. We started dreaming about our new baby due in March and planning our life as a family of 4.
We are choosing to think of the miscarriage as a blessing. God was protecting us from more pain later. At least it was early in the pregnancy (I was almost 7 weeks) and my body seems to be taking care of it instead of requiring surgery.
We really debated about sharing this on the blog, but the truth is we need all of the love and support we can get. We are heartbroken and fragile at the moment, but feel so blessed to have each other. This pregnancy ended in a tragic way, but there will be another pregnancy with a miraculous outcome in our future. Please send prayers and happy thoughts our way. We love and need you all!
