TTC After a Loss

Tomorrow... (PIP Iv'e never shared)

Tomorrow is Aidan's 1st Birthday. I still can't believe it is almost here. Today I looked at my self in the mirror and thought I looked rather skinny. When my Mom arrived at my house she said.. "Wow..you really look like you've lost weight" I broke out in tears..Of course I want to look good and lose the lbs I've gained since Aidan..but the thought that last year today I had a big beautiful belly really hit me. I miss him so much. Some days I feel guilty for wanting to be pg again. I just really want to be able to hold one of Aidan's brothers or sisters..bring them home and have a part if him. I am still waiting to surge on my opk so I can call the RE for my IUI the following day. I was sure it would happen today and I would be in there for the IUI on his birthday. So far...no + But I haven't tested again today yet. I will need all the good thoughts and prayers you wonderful ladies can gather for Mikey and I tomorrow..I really don't know how we will get through the day. I love you all...and thank God everyday that I have a safe place to come and talk with other girls who truly understand. ((HUGS))

I'll be thinking of you tomorrow, I remember you from right after your loss (I was also going through my 1st loss at that time) I hope you guys find the strength to get through tomorrow, allow yourself to grieve it's totally normal and expected.

Surprise! Our little girl entered this world on 12/8/2016 after her eviction notice was long past due. Our little turkey baby turned into a snow baby!

Thank you for sharing these amazing pictures. Aiden is just beautiful. I will be thinking of you and your DH tomorrow and sending you strength. Try not to feel guilty about wanting to be pg again Aiden knows you love him always and nothing will ever change that.
I hope you get a + on your OPK tonight.

(((HUGS))) to you.
And thank you so much for sharing these beautiful pictures of your angel baby.
Happy first birthday to Aidan ... I am so sorry that it's going to be a tough day for you and your husband. But I hope above anything that you're able to do the IUI, so fingers crossed that happens.
He is absolutely beautiful, and I appreciate you sharing those with us. You're in my thoughts and prayers.
We lost our first (EDD 07/23/12) after finding out at 12 weeks there was no longer a heartbeat. Our rainbow was born 05/22/13 and was worth all we went through.
“So can you understand? Why I want a daughter while I’m still young? I wanna hold her hand and show her some beauty before all this damage is done. But if it’s too much to ask, it’s too much to ask … Then send me a son.” – Arcade Fire
You and Mikey hold each other close tomorrow as you remember your beautiful boy. Be good to yourselves. So many ((hugs)) and prayers for you both as you make it through tomorrow.
