Hi all,
I just wanted to give everyone an update.  I think there are a few of  
you that might not know that I have had a miscarriage.  I went in on  
Sunday and was told "you are probably miscarrying, but there's a  
chance you might have a healthy pregnancy and you're just not as far  
along as you thought."  I knew the chances of that were pretty slim  
because I knew exactly when I had taken the test, etc, etc, but it  
wasnt until today that I got confirmation that our baby actually died  
probably about six weeks ago.
I just wanted to say thanks to all of you for being such good friends  
to us and for all the love and care you guys have shown.  We have  
felt really blessed.  It has been especially sweet to see the kids  
reaching out to me with love.  I know I can be pretty private  
sometimes, but I appreciate all of you who have been checking on me.
My doctor said it was ok to wait a while and see what happens  
otherwise I may have to have a D&C.  Sorry if that is too much info  
for some of you, but many of you have asked if I am feeling okay, so  
the answer to that is yes I feel fine now, but I'm sure I may have  
either recovery to deal with from the D&C or possibly a painful day  
ahead if my body is able to remove things on its own (sorry again for  
two much info!- I guess you guys are all big kids though)
Emotionally, I think I am coping pretty well.  I definitely have some  
sad times each day, but also many distractions with 3 boys to care  
for.  I am very grateful for them and for having had three healthy  
pregnancies.  I have so many friends who have dealt with miscarriage  
that I definitely dont feel alone.
Thanks again to all of you for your kindness.
Love,
Courtney
