We've been busy lately and I've been distracted so my entries have sort of fallen by the wayside.
I lost the baby. July 26 I was getting the oil changed on the van and when I got home I was spotting. I called Dr. McKinnon right away but I inevitably miscarried the following day. It was so hard!! And I don't think I've even been so sad in my whole life. Melissa helped a lot with Shaun and Dr. McKinnon even sent a card in the mail.
Our plan of telling all the family wasn't as thrilling as we were expecting but everyone was sympathetic. Turns out that my Aunt Helen had a bunch of miscarriages before she got pregnant with Sydney and another one before Hayley. It's sort of a silent wound that women carry around and only reveal when someone else is going through the same thing.
We heard on the weekend that Karen and Jay are expecting their first. She's due only about a week after I would have been. At least we don't see them often because that would be a constant painful reminder. Don't get me wrong, I'm very happy that they are growing their family but I want to be doing that too!
I'm waiting to hear back from Susan regarding a new contract that is due to start next week. But I don't know any details about it yet.
