I found out today that a dear friend of mine just had a miscarriage. She was 11 weeks along and was due just two weeks before me. She went in yesterday for an ultrasound and there was no heartbeat.
All day long, my heart just ached for her. I can't imagine the pain and loss she and her husband are experiencing right now. They tried for a very long time to get pregnant and she was so unbelievably excited about this baby.
It just makes me so sad. At the end of the day, it could have happened to anyone. Including me.
So despite the fact that I felt nauseous all day, I felt like I had no choice but to just embrace it. To welcome the sickness wholeheartedly, knowing that right now my babies are safe inside me....and praying to God that's where they'll stay for the next 7 months.
