Unexpected loss

After having a healthy boy I never thought that I would miscarry but it did happen.

December 2016

I had a baby boy in 2011.

In 2015 I fell pregnant again and was overjoyed. After having a healthy boy I never thought that I would miscarry but it did happen.

My husband and I grieved. It took me a long time to get over it. We obviously didn't find out why it happened so I definitely think more research needs to be done on this.

I'm now 8 weeks away from giving birth to another baby boy and am extremely grateful to my body for giving me a healthy boy and pregnancy.
