I'm not sure where or how to start this post... So I will just start with the news.
We lost our baby yesterday, at 11 weeks and 2 days.
We are sad. And emotional. And we miss our baby.
I have fed, loved, planned, and prayed for this baby everyday for the past (almost) 3 months and it's hard to know that he is no longer growing in there. BUT we are greatful that he is with our Jesus and that we will see him again! He has other brothers/sisters with him there and I know that my babies, and all the other babies taken home early, are perfect, happy, and healthy there!
In the past 24 hours we have had an OUTPOURING of love from friends, family, and our sweet midwife. They have offered their love, prayers, to take our kids for the day, and anything else they can do to help! I am so greatful for the support and can feel the Holy Spirit healing our hearts like only he can. Abigail is doing ok (she is recovering from strep throat, but emotionally is doing good.) Jaxon has been the sweetest, most snugly baby boy, and doesn't want to leave my side. In fact, he is laying with his head on my lap as I type this, pretty uncharecteristic! I think he senses something isn't quite right, and wants to take care of his mommy, and I am loving it :)
I don't regret telling everyone early, because I know that I did everything in my power to have this child covered in prayer by most everyone that we know. I have no what ifs, only peace in knowing that my God works all things together for good, and faith in his perfect plan and perfect timing for our lives. We feel confident that we will be blessed with a healthy baby and pregnancy soon!
“My grace is suffienct for you, my power is made perfect in your weakness.”
2 Corinthians 12:9

No regrets, ever. Our babies are playing in heaven!
