Well for most don't know, I had a miscarriage last year at this time (well actually the beginning of September) I found out on Nick's birthday last year. Then lost the baby at 7 weeks. I had it confirmed at my ob. Of course we don't know what sex the baby was. So we went with mother's intuition and Nick's that it was a boy. We named him Aiden Blake Barker. We were very unstable in a home at the time so when we were finally settled with my mom, we finally grieved for him. I bought a teddy bear the day we found out I was pregnant for the baby, I still sleep with it to this day.
Since I lost the baby so early they called it a chemical pregnancy. I wasn't very familiar with the term so I researched it. My horrible ob of course didn't tell me much other than "oh it's just a chemical pregnancy." Chemical pregnancies are actually quite common in woman. It's when the baby and the body terminate the pregnancy early because the chemicals in the baby aren't right or that they don't mix well with the mom.
My main point to this blog was to touch on this. We plan on doing something for Aiden and Amy's (my other miscarriage) "angelversary" because the times when they went to heaven aren't very far from each other maybe a month in between. Were going to do a balloon release for them a baby pink balloon for Amy and a baby blue balloon for Aiden. Which also are the colors for pregnancy and infant loss awareness ribbon.
Has anyone that reads my blogs have had a miscarriage? I could release more balloons for your angel's memory. :)
(Will do a separate post explaining Amy)
