YES!! while pregnant with my rainbow girl I...WOW! YES!! while pregnant with my rainbow girl I thought everything I did in the last months of Dresden's pregnancy might kill her too! The swimming thing.. I totally thought that! I wouldn't even go in the same body of water because a month before he was born, I swam in there.. and as good as it would of felt on a hot July day, I just couldn't do it! I wouldn't drink apple cider, all sorts of things. My husband had those feelings too. I would think it's totally normal after what you've been through.. Pregnancy after loss is hard work - maybe we need all these extra thoughts to make it go faster?! I hope yours goes quickly and you have that beautiful rainbow baby in your arms soon!Shannon Ryanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03288990166879426608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-572454241339969325.post-27604652685969906932010-09-11T17:30:49.833-04:002010-09-11T17:30:49.833-04:00Oh this was SO me this week!!!! What happened wit...Oh this was SO me this week!!!! What happened with Matthew had absolutely NO environmental/health issue WHATSOEVER, and I have no reason to believe there's anything like that with Luke...but you better believe that every time I put my body in the pool (and it wasn't that often!), I thought, "Wonder what's in this water? Is there enough chlorine to kill anything? Is it too much chlorine?" I worried about too much salt water; I worried about how long food had been sitting and waiting to be served. I wondered about whether or not the water on the cruise would be strong enough to rinse out the detergent I brought and used to rinse things out? <br /><br />Exhausting indeed. <br /><br />xoxoLorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01828552745708177768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-572454241339969325.post-67672724117594029982010-09-09T19:19:00.998-04:002010-09-09T19:19:00.998-04:00I think it's a natural thing after loss to wor...I think it's a natural thing after loss to worry like that. As far as being afraid to do things...I guess to a point. I wasn't as vigilant on some of the normal pregnancy things your supposed to avoid like caffeine or lunch meat. But then there were other things I was more careful on like taking more folic acid.Hollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15431384515813384025noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-572454241339969325.post-67900316885107721012010-09-08T23:16:21.941-04:002010-09-08T23:16:21.941-04:00I worried about EVERYTHING.

Thinking of you and asking the universe to bring birdie safely into your arms. xoBreehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03894396436704042272noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-572454241339969325.post-33432486318633138722010-09-08T22:02:29.601-04:002010-09-08T22:02:29.601-04:00I think Little Birdie would like to be somewhere h...I think Little Birdie would like to be somewhere his/her sister went. <br /><br />If breezes, a light hike, and lake/river water up to your knees could kill...we'd all be dead.<br /><br />Please try to enjoy.
