It's something no one ever thinks will happen to them. It's something that should never happen to anyone. It's something that too many people are afraid to talk about or don't know how to talk about, but it's real. If you've lost a child, whether through miscarriage, stillbirth or some tragedy after they were born, you know what I mean. Everyone tiptoes around you and doesn't quite know what to say. You don't ever bring it up, because you're afraid of upsetting those around you. And yet your heart aches because you, too, are a Mother ... and you want to be acknowledged as such, even if you don't have that little one to hold in your arms. I've been there.
My name is Molly. I am a wife, a daughter, a sister, a friend ... and a mother. I have been pregnant five times ... but I have one baby that I get to hold in my arms. This blog is about the path my journey to motherhood has taken me on. It's where I've come from, how I'm living and coping now. But, most importantly, it is meant to give you hope for the future, hope for something better. Because I truly believe there is hope after loss. And I hope my words will challenge and encourage you and give you hope for that future.
