Nothing about the process of motherhood seems to be easy or expected. But I'm grateful still, to be a woman and to have the gift of motherhood bestowed upon me. I'm especially grateful for the little girl that I get to hang out with everyday, and who has continued to make me smile despite the sadness I feel inside. She is my angel.
Thank you to my friend Lisa for watching Reese today and for taking this beautiful picture of my baby girl. And thank you to all my friends and family that have been overwhelmingly loving and supportive today.
I'll be going in tomorrow for a DNC and will be taking a few days off to recover and feel a little better. I hope you all understand.

I'm not sure why docs think that explaining the rarity of a difficult thing will make it easier - but you are well, and your family is well, and I hope that you can focus within that. My strongest thoughts for you going forward.
You have a great strength. My prayers and thoughts are with you and your family.
I lost a baby at 22 weeks and after the shock the sadness came but then the gratitude that I had that long with him. I hope you recieve peace while you go through all the emotions that will come.
