Just because you see a rainbow, and it’s beautiful, and it’s wonderful, and it makes your heart smile; it doesn’t mean that the rain didn’t just happen. It did. Everything is soaked, including you.
Of course, I’m not talking about the weather, am I? No, I am talking about babies (no surprises there then?!). What I want to say here may not come out in the intended way; but I am going to give it my best shot and see what happens. Obviously we want another baby, quite badly now I might add. Teddy should have been two in May, even if he had lived; I think I still would have hoped I was pregnant with another healthy pregnancy by now. Alas, neither.
