About Me
I am a wife, mother of one, pharmacist, and avid blogger. This blog first chronicled my journey to have a baby. Now I’m trying to find myself within this new definition of mother. Oh, and I like to rant about current events. Now onto baby #2…

Just came by your blog from FF and thought i would wish you some luck. I am so sorry about your twins
no one should ever have to go through a loss. I am sure it was tough.
hang in there and I hope your accupuncture works! I have thought about it also… maybe I need to think a little more and get started!!
Good luck

You just brought tears to my eyes. You are wonderful and this should never happen to anyone. I think that miscarrages happen for a reason. Though I have never had one, I still feel so bad. I am also TTC and had no luck yet.
I’m Sending out some ****Babydust****
Good Luck
I don’t know you, or much about you. I actually just accidentally came across your blog because I liked the title “grateful always” and decided to check it out. To be honest I kind of expected a Grateful Dead fan site…but I digress.
I read this “about me” section and it brought so many difficult memories back to me. My wife and I went down that road of conception and miscarriage 3 times before giving up on the idea of “natural” conception. We always knew we’d adopt, but we thought we’d have biological children as well. I think people who have never experienced miscarriage don’t understand. It’s like there is an underlying attitude of “well it’s not like your baby was born and you got to hold it.” But in so many ways that fact makes it even harder, not easier. The child you have, and the child my wife and I have are not “replacements” for our loss. But, as I have heard a speaker say, “When something is not happening for you in the natural way, maybe it is because God is getting you ready for something supernatural.” It was only a couple weeks after hearing that said that we got a phone call about a young couple who wanted to do a private adoption.
Anyway, I guess this long comment is here to just say thanks for your story. It is comforting to know that we are not alone.
God bless…
