For everyone that has lost a little loved one...

[NickiV]

October 15th, Wednesday, was National Day of Remembrance for pregnancy and infant loss. I didn't even know that this existed.  This includes all babies who have died because of miscarriage, stillbirth, SIDS, or any other infant death.

My sister-in-law just shared this with me and although the day is past I still want to send this out there with LuvNHugz, SupportNPrayerz to all of you that can share this moment.  No matter how it happens the loss of a baby is on hard us.  Early in the pregnancy, later after birth, without warning or even if you know that there were issues to his/her health.  For me each loss is a piece of my heart living somewhere else.  Never having gotten to hold my babies I still love them and grieve for them.  They were a part of me.

There really isn't much to say other than I'm thinking of you and that you are not alone.  Stand in the thought that we really aren't all that different.  Set aside the judgement, harshness and bickering that usually fills our days.  Just be happy to be living, laughing, loving and try to remember that enjoying every moment that we're given is really all that matters.

Can't have a rainbow without the rain.  Jump in the mud puddles, it's fun to get a little dirty.

The difficult moments in life are what make the good moments great.

In the circle of life there are many stages and without one the others wouldn't make such a beautiful circle anymore.

Without the rough patches the takin' it easy moments wouldn't be nearly as sweet.

Thank you for that it means alot. I found out that my baby had no heartbeat on Oct. 15. Had my D&C on the 16. One of the hardest days one I will forever remember on a personal level. Your words were very touching.
