Our Story of Love at First Sight…

All my life, I always dreamt of having babies, lots of them, but I never believed it could happen for me. In summer 2013 I found out I was expecting and we were beyond thrilled. We excitedly scheduled our first ultrasound but while they were performing it, they were very tight lipped and not showing us anything. The longer we waited, the more anxious we grew and my heart sank. The doctor informed us, over the phone, that there was no heartbeat. I was scheduled for a D&C. Even though I knew in my head that it wasn't my fault, my heart couldn't accept it. But life goes on.

When our rainbow baby was 6 months old, I found out I was expecting again. This time right before our first family vacation trip to Florida. We were nervous but excited to think we were going to have two little ones running around. Unfortunately, I started to cramp up and feel weird and I ended up having another miscarriage. Driving 24 hours gives a person a lot of time to think and feel.

We never named either of our lost babies officially, but i think of them often. I've accepted it and sometimes I still get sad when I think of them, but I know they are in heaven watching us and waiting to meet us. Every year I participate in a walk for them, the angels that never got to run. To honor them and remember their little souls.

Thank you for taking the time to read our story and learn about our baby who will only live on in our hearts… forever. We would like to ask that you help the organization that has helped us and helps so many others in their times of need.

All donations made to this page are made in loving memory of our baby gone too soon and will be used towards the WNYPBN’s Program.
