Pregnant after a Loss

Made my first baby purchase..

.... and it was tough. I almost teared up. It brought a bunch of memories back of when I was shopping for Haleigh. I am pushing myself to acknowledge that this is real. I felt the baby move 3 days ago (I guess it is true that you feel it sooner the second time). I have really tried to not allow myself to get attached to the baby, but I think it is time that I stop - especially that now I am feeling the baby.

I have always felt that without a shadow of a doubt that this baby is a boy. So, I bought a really cute overall set- looks like a train conductors (light and tight blue stripes) that came with a cute brick red color shirt, a teal colored incredibly soft blanket and found $1.50 jeans - so bought two different sizes.  

I don't think I will buy much more for a while. No pun intended, but I need to make baby steps - and this was a BIG step for me...

  • Yay, I love this post!  That overall outfit sounds absolutely adorable.  I'm glad you are taking the plunge and getting attached...it was bound to happen sooner or later, but with your experience I totally get why it is incredibly scarey.  Way to be brave!
