One Year Later

Well, it has almost been a year since I lost Katlyn. Here I am, pregnant again. Only now 18 weeks along instead of 27. It's definitely been an emotional roller coaster.

Josh and I had been trying to get pregnant again since last June. We found out I was pregnant again on Halloween. I started Heparin shots on Election Day. Two weeks later they switched me to Lovenox shots and I've been on them ever since.

Last week I was sick and having a little post-traumatic stress. But I got an IV and some Zofran and that helped a lot. It is amazing how strong your mind can be. It just kept going back to last February and replaying the whole ordeal with Katlyn over and over in my head like a tape recorder. It made me so sick.

I want to believe everything will be okay and but since I haven't had a successful pregnancy yet, all I know is the tragedy that I experienced.

Today my friend Melissa brought me flowers at work. She got 1 pink rose for Katlyn and 3 red roses which represent me, Josh and our new baby. It was very touching, so I thought I would post a pic of them here.
