Wow Jenny! I walked back through the horror of my own miscarriage reading that. It feels like such a lonely place that even your husband cannot know. I know that you have done many women a favor by painting your pain so eloquently and allowing others to know that someone else understands. I journaled about mine but have never gone back to re-read. Maybe I will now. Love and prayers to you.

Such a different way of writing about losing a baby - makes you realize that each person's experience is unique. Thank you, Jenny, for your beautiful writing.

Jenny--
I stopped by your blog and saw this and just wanted to tell you how much it helped me to read this. It helped me understand what you, along with many of my friends, have gone through in a much deeper way. As I read the above comments, it struck me how God has already used this incredibly hard experience in your life to impact others. I continue to pray for you and Ron that you will be able to see God's goodness in all this.

Really . . . a fabulous and moving piece. It really helped me understand the pain (both physical and emotional) of this experience. So hard for those of us who haven't experienced it to get the depth of it, but your words got me so much closer.

Thanks for the privilege of reading this piece. Thanks for being brave and generous in sharing it.

Blessings to you and Ron. Still praying for you both . . . I know there will be an answer.

Beautifully written, as always!

Thank you for sharing such a personal, devastating story.
I came here from the Mothering site (which I started going to during my first loss - almost 4 years ago)

We need more people like you to share your story and allow these babies the recognition they deserve

2007-10-23T19:16:00.000-04:00

Oh Jenny. God. You are more courageous than me to write about it. I admire your writing. I understand the pain. I had a miscarriage, too, and it was more than hell. I so understand the wrenching emotional pain. You wrote about it beautifully and I appreciate it so much. Lots of healing tears for you, and good things to come.

2007-10-23T18:02:00.000-04:00

How do you tell someone that their writing was so beautiful even with that tender subject matter?

You made me feel like I was there with you...a typical response from the reader to the writer...

but no typical woman

*you are special Jenny*
and I must say that there is a very special lucky little boy waiting to meet his momma some day.

a very special momma, indeed

love to you, Jen

Jenny,
Thank you for sharing your story. Not everyone can put those feelings into writing like you can. I'll be keeping you and Ron (and all of Leo's siblings to come) in prayer.
