Our Loss

Today is Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day. It's a day to raise awareness of miscarriages, ectopic pregnancy, still births, and infant loss. You can find more info here.

This day actually means something to Travis and I now. We suffered our own loss in July. We lost a pregnancy on July 27th at 10weeks. We will always always remember this baby even though we never met him or her. I have tried to write about this for awhile now and haven't been able, but thought today was as good as ever. It was a scary time. I ended up in the hospital for a few days and had a D&C. I am fine now and ready to try again. We were able to get pregnancy without any fertility drugs so we hope to again. I have an appt with a new Dr in November as my Dr passed away a few weeks ago!

Anyways, today at 7pm all over the world in different time zones everyone will be lighting candles for one hour to remember our babies.


So many people grieve in silence and the goal of today is to bring awareness to this and to remember. I have had so much support from amazing friends and family. I don't know how Travis or I would have been able to get through it without them.


Love y'all,
Justin
