"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.
On September 28, 2011, I lost a daughter, Faith, to stillbirth at 21 weeks gestation. No cause was ever found. On July 18, 2012, I found out I was pregnant again. I am now 22w3d along with this baby boy, and I am praying he is our rainbow - our take-home baby. This blog is for him, documenting my pregnancy and his life! I will go back and publish posts for events and ultrasounds that happened up until now. We have a name picked out but have decided to keep it a surprise, so for the purpose of this blog, I will call him BB (baby boy) :)
