This week marks our viability milestone in our pregnancy!!!! 25 weeks on last Thursday! What a beautiful blessing for us to be celebrating. Each and every day is more and more cause for celebration, as we ever so steadily reach for the next "checkpoint" in this journey towards parenthood.
Ironically, it is also the week that if I had carried Wyatt to term, we'd be celebrating his first birthday. I have several friends who were due around the same time I was. Several people that I blog with as well. Seeing their facebook and blog posts about their little one's upcoming big days literally knocked the breath out of me. A punch to the gut. I totally wasn't expecting that reaction. I never really thought of April 23rd as his "day", but, I guess to my subconscious it will always be in some fashion. These dates stick with you, even when you think they won't.
We had a nice little mini vacation away this week...and what great timing!! On the way home, we stopped by to see family and visited with Wyatt at the cemetery. It was a very emotional visit, but, felt good. We love and miss our little guy so much!!!
What a beautiful week for us to get away to celebrate love, loss and life!!!

I am so glad your pregnancy is progressing well! And I'm glad you were able to visit Wyatt's grave. The anniversaries and birthdays are very hard I'm sure.
i'm glad you got a little vacation, you deserve it, i hope you're feeling good.

That's awesome, girl.
I recently found your blog via yahoo and was so touched by your story, as I am living with endo and infertility as well! I am SO happy for you and for some reason I am worrying about you just like I would have for myself. it feels like your baby would give many of us hope so it's going to be so precious in so many ways. Please stay posistive, I will be thinking of you a lot! Rosa
I am glad you had a little retreat and a visit with Wyatt. I can only imagine how difficult it was to mark April 23 this year. Your strength amazes me.
Thanks for the post on my blog!
I can't imagine the range of emotions for you and your husband that day. But what a beautiful gift of reaching such an incredible milestone! Sending lots of happiness your way!
