I wish we could have met today instead.
______________________________________
One thing that I've learned from all of this is that I'm not the only one. There are way too many mothers that have lost their precious babies too soon. And I wouldn't wish this on my worst enemy. For that reason I'm going to do whatever I can to promote pregnancy loss awareness and try to raise funds in Lydia's name for research to prevent the type of loss that took her from us. I'm researching different organizations that I might want to use for this. Right now I'm thinking March of Dimes but I'll keep you guys posted on what we decide. But doing something like this makes me feel like I'm doing something for Lydia. And that makes me smile.

Thinking of you today! ((HUGS))
Thinking of you all.
Thinking of you today.
My heart and prayers are with all of you.
Thinking of you during this time. I remember it so well. . .
I think you'll find great satisfaction in doing something in Lydia's name. After our twins died B and I threw ourselves into fundraising for the Preeclamspa Foundation Awareness Walk that's held every Mothers' Day. . . it was so hard to share our story over and over, but it brought so much satisfaction.
((Hugs))
That's a beautiful idea! I'm so glad to see your using your healthy grief in a way that can help others, and God will bless you for that!
I woke up this morning thinking of you, thinking of Lydia. Big hugs, my friend.

Echloe, what a sweet idea, to raise awareness to honor your Lydia.
I can only imagine the pain you are feeling today. I'm holding you in my thoughts and in my heart.

Thinking of you, your DH and your angel today.
Thinking of you all today. The anniversaries and important dates are hard, but I know for us, passing the due date brought a sense of peace. It was nice to no longer think that I should be X weeks pregnant. (((HUGS))) and I love how you're planning to honor your sweet girl.
Thinking of you both and your beautiful Lydia on such a difficult day. ((HUGS))
that's a wonderful idea. Thinking of you today while you remember your precious Lydia.
Beautifully written. So sorry for your pain. BIG hugs!
