Agree with both comments... You are definitely inspirational and a source of strength for those of us that are not brave enough to face it quite as public...
I found your site after reading your xojane article. Thank you for putting it all out there for the rest of us. Though I have never suffered the loss of a baby, I have been trying to have one for 8 years this Christmas and can totally appreciate your sense of frustration, anger and humor.
Thank you for writing that article. I will share it with friends and family as I'm going through my second loss as we speak. I'm thankful to wonderful women like you who help raise awareness for miscarriage and pregnancy loss. The worst part of miscarriage aside from actually losing your baby, is the isolation and lonliness of not being able to share it with others. I am sorry to read about your losses and I wish I could understand why good people like you have to suffer, but I find hope that someday we will be free from the pain of heartache in this life. Again, thank you for sharing and being a source of strength in this community.
I'm late to the party, but I just found your article on XO. Wow, can I ever relate... to everything from the second miscarriage, which for me just started, to the super fertile family. My sister will deliver within the next few weeks. Isolating is just the tip of the iceberg. You never think this will happen once much less twice. We're going to do some testing to see if we can figure out what the problem is. Hope we both have better luck in the future. I'll start checking in on you now and then. Best wishes for 2012.
I just read it, and thought it was very brave of you to talk about it, your courage and bravery is inspirational.

ReplyDeleteThanks, Amber! I'm so sorry about your second loss. I love that we all can connect through the Internets and feel less alone.
