What Now?

As you might have inferred from last week's only post, I had a miscarriage. One of the first practical questions that popped through my haze of sadness was, "What does this mean for my new blog?" The short answer: I'm still not sure. The short-term solution: hiatus.

We're going to keep trying, so eventually, hopefully, this nursery project will be on again, and I'll still need to do the research and find the baby bargains and the practical solutions to pregnancy and motherhood. So the blog might as well keep going. Under a different name, of course -- "Little Bit" was this baby's nickname, and it doesn't feel right to keep using it.

I need a little more time off, though, before I can read and write about baby stuff without crying. When I work through that, the blog will continue, so there's no need to unsubscribe. And if you're not subscribed, then doing so is the best way to be alerted when things start up again.

Thanks for hanging in there with me.

I just found your blog today and am so sad to hear about your loss. At 6 weeks my husband and I thought we lost our little one, then learned that I was carrying twins and lost one. I don't quite know what to say, other than I'm sorry, I know how you feel. Hang in there and I too believe that you will be with your little one again.

I'm so sorry for your loss. You will hear tons of stories from women like me who've been through the same thing. We don't know how common miscarriage is until it happens and then everyone and their mother comes forward with a story.

Take all the time you need to rest up and heal. Crying helps.

I wasn't even sure how I felt about trying again, but my husband and I ended up conceiving again almost right away- 13 healthy weeks and counting!
