Tonight I had to cry. I was reading a blog (Resolved to Worship) that I have a link to and she mentions a verse and a song that mean a lot to her, and then dedicated it to their unborn baby they began losing last night.
This woman has six beautiful children whom she absolutely adores. And now she is suffering a miscarriage. She had 50 some comments and almost every single one of them mentioned having a miscarriage or their mom did.
It is amazing the bond that women can share over such heartbreak. We had a miscarriage two years ago, and tonight I cried about our miscarried baby for the first time in a long time. I read her comments with tears streaming down my face, hurting and feeling the pain all over again. I really didn't know it still hurt so much.
The thing that helps so much is knowing that you are not alone. I think that is what helped me the most when we were going through everything two years ago. Women came out of the woodwork and shared that they had gone through the same heartbreak themselves.
I don't know why this tugged at my heart so much tonight, but it still hurts and I feel so much for this hurting mom whose blog I read.
So if you think about it, say a little prayer for their family.

I'll have to go read her blog Kim...I didn't even know she was pregnant again. She has a way of connecting women at the heart doesn't she? I'm sorry you had to go through that miscarriage, but am glad for you that you were surrounded by people who could relate with you and help you heal.
Hi Kim, we went through a miscarriage before Olivia was born and it is indescribable! I never knew I could hurt so much. We wanted a baby so badly and we were so attached to him/her. I am praying for your friend and her family. I am not sure we (you, me, and other women who have been through it) will ever truly get over it, but priase God, He is our comforter. I am so thankful for the network of women He placed in my path that could really empathize with me.
Hugs,
Stacey
I totally understand - and I silently prayed for her as soon as I read your blog. It is just a tough, tough thing to go through. Matt and I actually ended up having 2 miscarriages - we had one before Eva and we had another one after Jaden. It is heart wrenching. I agree people come out of the woodwork with stories of their own miscarriages, and that helped, but I still greived the loss of each of those babies.
