In a few hours it will be exactly 8 months since we said goodbye to our boys. This month is hitting me a bit harder than previous ones. I have done a lot of beating myself up lately over not seeing them, holding them, naming them or having pictures taken.
You ladies have been so amazing and supportive, reminding me that I did what was best for me in that moment. You're right, and I know that, I know I did what was best at the time. I know I can still name my sons. Thank you for being here for me through this rough time.
2.25.13 also marks 1 year since we transfered 2 perfect little embryos. I think this is what makes this month so much harder. As we start TTCAL the emotions are so different and so much the same. A year ago I was so naive, with no worries. Today, I worry about every little thing.
Loss and infertility SUCK. No other way to put it. This is just part of the road on our journey at this point. Another bump in the road. And I know that this TTCAL is only going to add even more bumps along the way.
Thank you ladies for "listening", I can't sleep and have a very long day and week ahead of me.
No real reason I guess to this post other than to get it all out. Thank you again.

Thank you ladies for the love and hugs. I needed them after the insane day at work. I just couldn't stop crying. It seems everytime I turn a corner and think I am doing a little bit better I get slapped in the face again.
Thank you for reminding me I am not alone on this journey.
