22nd December - One Year On
A year ago today, Mr RS drove me up to the local hospital for an ERPC for a missed miscarriage in my 4th pregnancy - my 3rd miscarriage. I was 9+6 and utterly devastated.
We already had a wonderful boy for whom I was, and am, eternally grateful but was rapidly giving up hope on there ever being a sibling for him. I know this still put us in a great place, because we had our child and so many don't, but 2 losses in quick succession in desperate pursuit of no 2 was taking its toll on me, on my marriage with Mr RS, and on my parenting of Noah.
Before I went in to surgery, Mr RS and I agreed that we would try again. I needed to know if we were done or not, but we just weren't ready to give up at that point.
A year on, and I feel so so lucky to be sitting here, waiting for a completely different Christmas, with my husband, Noah and new baby William who is 1 week old today.
I can't believe it has been a year, and I shall be thinking of all my angels today, and will be thankful for my 2 wonderful boys.
