As time passes.......

I look back and can't believe the amount of time that has passed. I think back to laying in the hospital in Oct saying, Dr. I really hope that Athena is not born on the same day as Aria! Thankfully, Athena came 1 week prior to the birth/death date of Aria.

I am not sure individuals who never experienced the loss of a baby or experienced a difficult pregnancy can understand the pain, fear and grief of the situation. Athena does not take the place of Aria. However, Aria made me realize how lucky I am to have Athena and how I cannot take her or Cole for granted.

With that being said, it is incredible that the statement, "you are pregnant" can be so bittersweet.

There are so many people blogging on here who have experience loss after loss with the added difficulty of conceiving. My heart goes out to you all.
