REMEMBERING OUR LITTLE ONE!!!!
Most people are lucky enough to have photos from the beginning until week 38 or 39, for me it ended at week 8. I still feel blessed to have been able to carry my little Cub even if it was for such a short time.

At this point, I did not realize it but the baby had stopped growing so I really was not 8 weeks, although my belly was getting more and more bloated by the week....thank you Progesterone & pregnancy hormones!

Sadly this is my belly the day after I miscarried, already a lot flatter from the other weeks. It made me really sad to know my belly would not continue to grow. I am just thankful I took pics even if this pregnancy only lasted 8 weeks, it was still a very special time for us. :(
We are now praying for a rainbow.....
"Rainbow Babies" is the understanding that the beauty of a rainbow does not negate the ravages of the storm. When a rainbow appears, it doesn't mean the storm never happened or that the family is not still dealing with its aftermath. What it means is that something beautiful and full of light has appeared in the midst of the darkness and clouds. Storm clouds may still hover but the rainbow provides a counterbalance of color, energy and hope.
