RaeAnna + A Nerdy Lifestyle
Today is my Due Date-Versary. Had my body done its basic, biologically female task of staying pregnant five years ago, I would be celebrating my child's fifth birthday. Instead, I'm focusing on the happiness in my life. The joys I have today because I had a miscarriage instead of a baby.
101 Things I Learned in Law School by Vibeke Norgaard Martin is a great little book filled with humor and levity about how lawyers are not all-knowing but fallible human beings.
Four years ago would have been my due date, but I had a miscarriage at thirteen weeks. I still grieve. It still hurts. I had wanted to protect my baby from the world, but I couldn't even protect them from my body.
