Recently, there have been several of the young women at church who've announced their pregnancies. Today, one of them shared on FB that her baby's now in Heaven. She had an amazingly calm post about it, even talked about how she would know her baby instantly when she got to Heaven, but my heart still hurts for her! It was their 1st baby; they've been married for almost a year, young & in love, happy, healthy....and to lose your 1st. It's just not right.....

That's so sad My DH and I lost our first so I know how badly that can hurt. We plan to try again in a couple of months but for now it's still so raw. It's so unfair just how many woman have to suffer this sort of hurt.

It's amazing how much the hurt remains so clear to us -- even after many, many years. I was thinking about my first miscarriage the other day, and I honestly think I can tell you every detail about my first loss even though it has been many, many years ago.
I think the full impact of the loss doesn't hit us at first. For me, the benchmark for sadness and emptiness was always that 3 month mark. I'm not sure why -- maybe that's just when the reality of it all set in.
I'm so sorry for anyone who has to go through the pain of a miscarriage. Life never promised to be fair -- and miscarriage is one of those times when it isn't.
Hugs to all, Clara

I lost my first. And second. It's hard knowing your first pregnancy ended in tragedy. She may be hurting more than she's letting on though. I hid my grief from most everyone because THEY couldn't handle my grief. Maybe you should let her know that you understand and if she needs to talk, you're there for her?

emily--How are you?? I send her a message to that effect, wanted to let her know that I've been down that path. She said that she appreciated it, but she was OK. I'm planning on keeping in contact, though, make sure she really IS OK!
