Just wanted to make a quick post about our miscarriage and let you know Greg and I are okay.
Obviously, it's terrible news for us, especially considering our struggles with infertility.
We will get through this and are already talking about the next steps we want to take.
Our friends, family and faith have gotten us through a very trying year and we will continue to be strong. Many people have been through things more devastating than this and we are thankful for all the blessings we do have. We live in a time and country where medicine has progressed to a point where we can have the possibility of having a family. Sure, it cost a small fortune (or about 15 cows) for us to get pregnant in the first place, but I can't think of anything more important to spend our money on (or go in debt over).
Like I said, we'll get through this and I appreciate all your well-wishes. I waited until tonight to read all my facebook comments and I can't thank you all enough. You are so sweet and kind and every word was greatly appreciated.
Lastly, in a bit of good news, our lone heifer became a cow today. Yep, that's right, she graduated to motherhood, and we're waiting for her utter to drop. Never thought I'd say something like that, but why not?
Hope ya'll have a good night.

I'm so sorry April. I had 2 in 6 months before I had my son. I know how hard it is. I'm praying for you both and am hoping for a bright, kid filled future!
April, I am so sorry. We lost 3 before we had our son. there are no words that can soothe the ache in your heart, so all I will say is that I am sorry and I am praying for you and Greg.
I am very sorry this has happened to you and Greg, but you sound like you are staying strong and staying positive, which will help tons. You have many people who love you and are praying for the two of you. I agree that this is worth going in debt over since you feel so strongly about it. Much love and luck to you and Greg!

You know... I hate times like these. Hate them. I'm just so sad for you. My tummy hurts. So I'll just let you know that you're awesome and beautiful and wonderful. And I wish I could jump over to Bowling Green right now and give you a hug. :D Consider yourself hugged from Texas!!!! :D
You two seem like such amazingly strong people. And to me, like many others on this post, it is so obvious that someday you are going to be incredible parents to a very lucky child.
thinking of the both you during this time!
I'm so sorry April. I know it must be hard. You have such a positive outlook though. Sending both you and Greg lots of hugs.

i am so sorry to hear your news April. - hera
I am so sorry to hear this. Sending you love, thoughts, and prayers to you both.
Lots of love and hugs to you both! You will get through this & continue following your dream, after all, we are used to the disappointment and I believe it makes us stronger every time. I had an ectopic following treatment last month and it helped a lot to scrapbook about the experience. It forces you to deal with the loss, to give it a home you can always revisit. I wish you all the best!
Hugs and hugs to you and Greg.
keeping you in my heart today, april.

April, I'm a SC subscriber & I'm so sorry to hear about your loss. :( I've had 2 miscarriages myself and I know how devestating it is. Take good care of yourselves. I will be praying that you are blessed with another baby very soon. Tanya
So sorry to hear this April, I don't know where I've been hiding, but I had no idea! I am sure that things will work out for you guys hugs, Carolinexx
I'm so sorry you have to go through this. I understand the pain you're feeling, and send you love and strength.
april. just saw this today. i'm so sorry. you and greg are in my prayers. god bless.
I am so sorry to hear about your miscarriage April. It sure is hard to go through the emotions and still try to be strong. I had 1 miscarriage before I got pregnant with my baby girl in 2007.
It does take a bit of your souls to go through this loss but you and your DH are in my thoughts and I truly believe you shall be parents one day.
