It is so much nicer to receive congratulations on your new baby cards than to receive condolence cards.
It's a stark contrast to 2010.
We are truly blessed.
Dealing with the loss of a child is never easy, but it's even more difficult when you are an expat living far from home. Life will never be "normal" again and so now the challenge is to find my new normal. I am now back in the USA and the proud parent of two daughters, born using two different egg donors. "Frostina" and "Olea" are the loves of my life and I feel so grateful for the amazing women who donated their eggs and made my family possible.
My hubby and I have shed such happy tears for you all! I have been following your journey for some time and pass it all on to the husband. Never have I had such feelings for someone I've never met, it's a strange world in the online blog, and yet my emotions for you are as real as for those close to me.
ReplyDeleteWe are utterly overjoyed for you! There are no other words, just utterly overjoyed! love and hugs xxxxx
congrats. enjoy the journey. enjoy the very small moments. with your daughter. and your husband. simply enjoy. :D
ReplyDeleteCongrats on Frostina! I hope the breast feeding is getting a little easier. The first week was really hard for me as well. This week is a definite improvement! I loved reading your hubby's post, seems like you have a great guy on your hands:) I just wanted to send a warm congratulations your way!
ReplyDeleteI remember looking at our dining table filled with cards, and the many pink gifts spread about the house when LBG arrived and being astounded on a daily, hourly basis. I am so very grateful that you get to know that feeling. Enjoy every moment. Your journey has been so long, and you deserve every little happiness.I well up every time I see a new postxxx

ReplyDeleteThis is my first visit to your blog! I am so sorry for your loss and so happy for your new little one. We had to find a new normal too, when our daughter was diagnosed with brain cancer in 2000. It is still an ongoing and ever changing process. Congratulations! It was very nice to meet you!
