I know it's something that you will always keep with you. I am grateful that you felt you could share your story with your blogging friends -- I bet it will help others who may have suffered from the same experience to know they are not alone.

It's amazing how many women do have to go through this, and I can only imagine how terribly painful it must be, how painful and frightening and unjust it must feel. I think the best thing I read about miscarriages is that women should e allowed to mourn it properly, as if they've lost a child, because in many ways they have. Hugs to you, honey.

Always one to peek between my fingers during scary movie scenes, I'm pregnant, but read anyway. I found your post to be incredibly honest. I'm 9 weeks today, and the idea of "something happening" looms large in my mind every day. It's actually quite comforting to read your story, and also Mama Tulip's, because you are women who have gone on to have healthy, happy children, yet haven't forgotten about your previous pregnancies and what might have been. I think women often aren't really encouraged to talk about their miscarriage feelings, and society tends to assume that, once you have other children, you forget all about the previous miscarriage. It's helpful for other women to know that you can get through these times, and go on to have the families you dream about, without ever having to forget the other pregnancy. I’m so, so sorry that you had to go through this.
