This post was reserved for weeks to announce Baby #2. Here it is August 3rd and we're sad to say that we have lost this baby as well. We were told by the doctors on the 5th that my symptoms show it is not a viable pregnancy. Not much can be done to prevent a miscarriage. I was 8 wks along. The miscarriage was finalized on Aug 18th. Of course it is sad to hear such news from healthcare professionals. This one happened naturally on its own. Perhaps it wasn't meant to be. This has been harder for me to deal with than the 1st miscarriage. I took 10 days off work since it was quite difficult to deal with emotionally as well as physically. I first felt that it was my fault but over the course of the week I have felt comforted that my those feelings were not true. McCord and I are both so reassured & comforted by the spirit that we will have at least 1 additional child. We both have relied on our Heavenly Father and our faith during this trying time. The good feelings have overwhelmed the bad as I look back on the full week. We are blessed with a sweet little girl and we know that we will get another child when the time is right. May God bless anyone who is going through hardship for we understand and know there is a way threw the heartache. Good things lie ahead for us; we just know it.
Here is a picture idea I had for announcing this baby. Thought I'd attach it for memories sake:
(D&C conducted 08/22/2014. Recovery time good. Process was hardly painful. All is well.)

I'm so sorry, Lis. My heart hurts for you all. I'm glad you were able to get through it the right way- with Heavenly Father. Sounds like you have a great attitude about it all now. Sending *sticky* baby thoughts your way!
