Life hasn't turned out as I expected, sometimes happily, sometimes sadly. So - this is all about the ever changing world, who I'm becoming, where I'm going and what shapes that.

Four years later
It doesn't hurt as much anymore. I'm not as sad, but I'm still sad. This is a bit of a difficult day to get through still. It wasn't just the loss of a baby, it was the loss of a dream.
I'm sorry, Kate. I understand that "not as sad, but still sad" feeling. And also your mixed feelings reading that pregnant woman's complaints. I hope they'll never know that there are far worse things they could be experiencing.
I can totally and completely understand your feelings. {{HUGS}} I give you a lot of credit for participating in those boards as I'm sure it's often pretty difficult.
Just wanted to be sure you knew about a new blog, A Fresh Start, (http://blog.silentsorority.com) that I'm building as a collection of voices -- women who are on or considering the path of childfree...don't know where you are exactly on your journey, but I invite you to check it out...
also...just wanted to say that this post four years later touched me. it's a reminder of all we've been through.
Kate, I get it. I believe I caused world war III last time I told a pregnant lady to "buck up"... so kudos to you for being more diplomatic than me. But know that someone understands! xoxo

Hey Kate,
Just wanted to be sure you knew about a new blog, A Fresh Start, (http://blog.silentsorority.com) that I'm building as a collection of voices -- women who are on or considering the path of childfree...don't know where you are exactly on your journey, but I invite you to check it out...
