10-15

Yesterday was Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day.  Sounds like a long and sad name, but if you think about it its pretty nice.  A lot of ladies feel like they cannot talk about the loss of a baby or miscarriage.  Many people feel like this is less of a loss because they are not born yet or are alive for such a short time.  I, obviously, feel the opposite of this and want to celebrate the people that have gone through it.  All people should be able to express their grief and should be encouraged to deal with that issue instead of push it away or ignore it.  I hope that everyone has the opportunity in their life to share their joys and pains with someone.  I hope that all of you have someone you can talk to or be with when you are dealing with difficult times, pregnancy related or not.  Take this day of remembrance and hold those close to you that have dealt with difficult times.  It can be embarrassing and confusing.  Give strength to those that need it in your life and don't be afraid to ask when you need a little back.
