October is International Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month

October is Miscarriage, Stillbirth, and Infant Loss Awareness Month. I am joining many other women who have suffered loss in a 31-day blog challenge (sorry I don't know the original link i read about it on a forum i am a member of). If you're a mom to an angel baby and would like to join, please feel welcome to do so:

These are the suggested blog posts:

Day 1: Who are you? Share as little or as much about you in general.
Day 2: Tell us about your child. As much or as little as you like. Names, birthdays, stats.
Day 3: Through your grief process who has been your "rock"?
Day 4: Through your grief process what has kept you going?
Day 5: Do you ever get subtle reminds of your angel(s)? If so what what are they?
Day 6: How do you answer the question of how many children you have?
Day 7: Do you do something to honor your angel? If so what?
Day 8: Do you feel you have more good days than bad ones?

Please read along with me and share as you see fit, or link me to your own blog if you are taking part.
Together we can hep break the silence surrounding pregnancy and infant loss, so that maybe one day bereaved families wont have to grieve behind closed doors
