By January, our hearts were healing and we came to understand God's love through our loss. We understood that that pregnancy was a special gift only to be shared between the two of us. We had been parents for 10 weeks and nothing would ever take that away.
At the end of January we were shocked and overjoyed with baby #2! It had happened again and we couldn't believe it. God had heard our prayers and created another little life, but if you've ever lost something precious, you know that if you're lucky enough to get it back, you hold onto it even tighter than the first time. This was our miracle baby! This was a gift for what we had gone through the first time!
Now, if you've lost something precious and it comes back to you, you understand that joy. But what if it's taken away from you again?
We lost Baby #2 after 5 weeks.
For me, the loss of our second child was numbing, absolutely numbing. I didn't want to tell people that my body had failed, again. I didn't want to go to the doctor, again. And I sure didn't want to make those phone calls, again.
What did I learn after our second miscarriage?
-I married the most incredible man. Period.
- God was not angry with me and He wasn't punishing me.
-With each pregnancy, He was molding me and growing me in ways that couldn't be achieved unless I was pregnant.
