Due date.

Today is (was, would have been) my due date, and I'm pretty sad. I didn't think it would hit me this hard, but here it is, and it has.

I'll be thinking of you today. It's ok to be sad about this anniversary. Hang in there.

Like a Mack truck I'm sure. I'm so sorry.

Just be sad today. If tomorrow is even a tiny bit better, that it progress.

I've been through three unfilled due dates now, and they're always haunted, long days. I hope it's healing to get past today. My heart goes out to you.

I still get emotional about the baby we lost and say a little prayer for that child (or maybe for me) on the due date. Prayers for you today, Alice. You bring us all so much joy with your candor and wit.

I'm so sorry, I miscarried just two weeks ago and it has been such an uphill struggle. You're in my thoughts.

I have been where you are so many times now, and my heart aches for you. Please embrace the love being sent your way (and also your child's way) and know that it will see you through.

I wish you peace.

It would be surprising if you weren't sad. I'm so sorry for your loss. Be kind to yourself.

Heartbreak and sympathy for you today--hoping you'll have lots of real, warm hugs in addition to those we are sending you from afar.

Alice, I'm so sorry. There are no words. But we feel for you, especially those of us also with little ones in heaven we will never forget. I am hopeful we'll all meet again someday. Hug that Henry extra tight today.

I'm so sorry, Alice. I haven't commented before but I just love your writing and I'm so grateful that you've allowed us into your life -- all parts of it, not just the funny parts. Remember that there are many many people out here who care about you and wish you well.
