@keppa: I'm sorry for your loss. What a sweet little boy you have. He WILL be an amazing big brother!

Just discovered this thread...

1. How many losses are you in your journey of healing from, when were they, & how far along were you?

Just one- lost baby at 9 weeks and had a D&C in March 2014.

2. Do you have a/any live child(ren)? If so, is/are they your rainbow baby/babies?

One 23 month old daughter, she is not my rainbow baby.

3. If you had a recent loss (within the last 12 mths) are you currently ttc for your rainbow baby? Or are you pregnant with your rainbow baby, how far along?

Currently pregnant (5w2d) with our rainbow baby... had some pretty heavy bleeding yesterday so went to midwife and saw sac... which is to be expected at this early stage.

4. How have you coped with your loss, how about your SO or other live children?

It was very difficult for me at first, and soon after I felt that everyone was announcing pregnancies... I stopped reading blogs and unfollowed a lot of people on IG for a while. It has gotten better with time, but all of those fears are back now that I'm pregnant again.

5. Share you triumphs in healing.

Being able to love on my daughter has been the best healing/medicine for me. Her laugh repairs the holes in my heart.

6. Are you having a bad day.... share away.

Not as bad as yesterday (see above re: bleeding). Today, I am pregnant (and exhausted). Thankful to be able to be on this journey again.
