Another miscarriage…

I found out I was pregnant just before my son’s first birthday party. Since all the family were going to be around, we told them a few days after the party. Everyone was thrilled as they know I want a big family. Once again my parents were sad that they were going to be in…

Spreading a little Sunshine

I’ve been nominated for a Sunshine Award by My Hope Jar. I really appreciate the nomination. I keep seeing the other blogs posting various awards, and I wasn’t sure if I would have the chance to get one. I’m really appreciative that I do have a chance to share the sunshine. Considering the dark place…

Dealing with loss (or not)

In preparation for trying again I decided to go to a chiropractor. I’d read a few places online that they could be good and that getting your body aligned before pregnancy can help with a lot of the aches and pains. I’ve never been to a chiropractor before. I’d read up about them and had…

Confirmation

I did do the test last Friday and it was positive. I also went for a blood test and that confirmed the pregnancy. B and I are both very apprehensive and very excited. Because I have had two miscarriages in the last year it is a very nervous wait for the first scan at the…
