Two years ago today on DH's birthday we went in for our 12wk ultrasound and found out our LO stopped growing at 8.5wks and no longer had a heart beat, A few weeks later we found out that our LO was a beautiful baby girl and we named her Hope. As I sit here with B I am so grateful for him and I wouldn't change what we went through because if I did then he wouldn't be here. At the same time though having him here some how makes the losses more real. I look at him and I wonder if the 4 babies we lost would have looked or acted like him. He puts a face to those LOs. Does that make sense?
I also feel bad that we went through that loss on DH's birthday because he just doesn't seem to get excited about the day anymore. I asked him what he wants to do for his birthday etc. and his answer is always "Eh it's just another day."

I am so sorry. ((hugs)) I know what you mean about our living children making the loss more "real."
Maybe you could celebrate your DH's birthday tomorrow? Just have a nice, quiet dinner or something? You will both be in my thoughts today. <b
