Yikes, it's been awhile since I've written anything and I hate posting links to stuff when I haven't been writing. It makes me feel lazy. But I read this article in my town's paper this morning and I thought that I'd share it with you.
Mourning Reproductive Loss
I'll write a real post soon. I've got a lot to talk about and nothing to talk about at the same time, so that's been my conundrum.
I lost my baby son, Nathaniel, on February 3rd, 2006, four days after his birth. I'm a mommy in mourning and this is my pensieve.
About Me
- Laura
- I'm a 33 year old professional flutist married to an accountant and living in southern Missouri. I lost my son, Nate, to a placental abruption at 40 weeks. Hope was found and lost again with a miscarriage in September 2006. On October 18th, 2007, Nate's little brother,Ben, arrived safely. I'm learning to be a mom to two boys--one here and one there.
Love you, Natey.

Thank you for that, Laura.
It's so good to see that there are people out there who recognize that our babies are very real to us and that they represent more than just "having a child", they are our hopes and dreams and hearts and souls. The lack of recognition of our children who have left this earth is the single hardest thing to deal with and I applaud the efforts of others to bring our children out of the shadows of "just get over it and move on."
