The Only Way Around is Through

Over the last nine years, I've had eight pregnancies. Two ended in the births of my daughters, Lily (8) and Ella (5). Five have ended in losses between 5 and 16 weeks. Chemical pregnancy, miscarriage, missed miscarriage, ectopic pregnancy, and late miscarriage are all part of my history. Finally, my 8th and final pregnancy, brought us our baby boy, Will, who has Down syndrome. With the loss of Olivia at 16 weeks on October 5, 2014, I turned to writing as a way to work through the challenges.

Buh bye 2014. No offense, but you sucked! Instead of happily ushering in the new year and knowing that this is the year I would have my baby, I am back at ground zero. Not pregnant, and certainly not 2.5 months from delivering my baby. Good riddance to the year that gave me what I can only hope will be my biggest hurdle.
