I know this is TMI for some but I just don't think I care to keep things all bottled up anymore........
We started trying for another baby over a year ago--16 months to be exact.
First it was 9 months of trying and finally 10 weeks of pregnant bliss.
Then the unthinkable happened...no heartbeat.....
Now after 5 months of trying-- I discovered I was pregnant again just last week...
Labs were looking good--got them checked and double checked again.....I thought could this really be real this time??
But then the unthinkable happened....again.......miscarriage #2.
I just don't know how much longer I can do this.
I'm so sick of crying, so sick of waiting and so sick of wondering.
When is it my turn??
Why me?
How could this happen again?
What did I do to deserve this?
What am I doing wrong?
What is wrong with me?
I thought it was finally--MY. TURN.
I was losing hope and maybe even losing a little faith and then when I became pregnant I realized God is good and prayers are answered.....
I don't know what point is trying to be proven here but I think that point has certainly been established --whatever that point may be.
Maybe I'm only meant to have 1 child (that I am SO BLESSED to have--he truly is a miracle)...but if I am, why do I have this longing in my heart?
Haven't I gone through enough?
And you know what kills me the most....
The other day Tom asked Owen if he wanted a brother or a sister.
And Owen says, "I want a sister."
And I asked, "why do you want a sister?"
And he says, "because I don't have one."
I thought it was so sweet at the time but now it just feels like a big punch in the gut.
I want for Owen so badly to have a sibling.
And I think he wants one too--he LOVES babies and is so good with them......
And for some reason we can't give that to him.
And that shatters my heart....into a million pieces.
When will I wake up from this nightmare?

My heart hurts for you, Naomi.
Praying for you.
I'm so sorry to hear this Naomi! Praying for you guys.
I'm so sorry to hear about this great disappointment you have to go through. My husband and I had to wait almost 7 years for our little girls to arrive.
I don't know what to say to make you feel better, except to have faith and believe everything will work out the way it should. Maybe you need to take this burden and lay it down in front of God's feet.
I'm sending you a virtual hug!
oh sweetie, I'm so sorry, I cannot possibly find the words to make it better, but if you ever need to talk, don't hesitate to email me, or whatever, I will be sending lots of baby dust your way, keep your chin up
Thinking of you and hoping for a sibling for Owen. I am so sorry for all of the heartache you are feeling!
I am so sorry Naomi.
Oh sweetie! i am so sorry to hear this, my thoughts are with you & your family.
Oh, Naomi. I am so sorry. You didn't do anything to deserve this and you aren't doing anything wrong. I am praying for you and your family.
Praying for you Naomi! Sending lots of good thoughts your way!
Sending a big hug your way- I will keep you and your family in my thoughts and prayers!
Oh my....I'll be thinking about you. I can't imagine what you're going through.
Oh Naomi, I'm so sorry. Know that you are good. Praying for you...
I'm so sorry you are going through this Naomi. Remember that you are a wonderful person, mom, wife, nurse and friend. It's ok to be sad and angry; let yourself grieve. It does not good to bottle it all up, trust me. I continue to pray for you and your family.
God IS good and He will help you. Either in having another child, or healing your heart and soothing your soul.
I'm praying for you!
I am so sorry to hear what you are going through. It's so hard to know what to say, especially since I do not know you. I can tell you what I believe. I believe that God has a plan, a divine purpose for everything He does, we may not understand it now, but I believe that in time - we will. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
Naomi, I am SO sorry that you have to go through this again. Thinking of you!
Naomi, I've thought and thought about the perfect thing to say to you, but I can't seem to find the words. I wish I could take all your hurt away and make things better. Please don't lose faith. I'll be praying...
