My Story: Pregnancy After Loss

I was so blessed to be pregnant with twin boys from July 2010 until December 2010. My suns were born at 22 weeks and 1 day. They each lived for a minute before the passed onto heaven. 

We don’t know the cause of my premature labor, but we are in the midst of discovering what actually happened. I’m going to the doctor this week to begin a series of different tests to see if they, the doctors, can come up with a diagnosis of what went wrong. 

By February, I would like to start the process to begin another cycle of InVitro Fertilization or IVF. My first cycle was a success for achieving pregnancy, unfortunately, due to the complications the result did not end with a live birth.  

I have been on this journey to motherhood for some time, but I am determined to go forward, I am determined to have healthy children in my future. I am a mother, a mother who is looking to be a mother again. 

This site is a testament to my will. I’m putting myself on the line, as I embark on the quest to have children. I want to put my story out there for others who have suffered the loss of a child, for those who have struggled to get pregnant and stay pregnant, for mothers trying to become mother again...you are not alone.

There are millions of women out there who have experienced the loss of a pregnancy, but have no way to express their feelings about it. I have found a way for me to release my emotions through an online journal in a tribute I’ve created for my sons. This journal has given me the strength to move forward and hope to get pregnant again. It’s become a very cathartic experience and from this experience I want to help other women. 

In an effort to heal myself and help others, I have created this site, dedicated to women trying to get pregnant and those trying to pregnant again after a loss. I will post as much valid information as I can. There is a plethora of misinformation on the internet that is thought to be true when it is not. I will be including a blog about my own journey to pregnancy and writing reviews about products I’ve used or am currently using as I work toward my goal of having a healthy 37 week plus pregnancy resulting in healthy living children.

I hope I will be able to help women and inspire them to move forward, and convince them to continue to try. It’s all we can do is keep trying.
