I just wanted to let you know how sorry I am for your loss. I've been in your shoes. I too wondered if there was something wrong with me because it wasn't as terrible as I thought it should have been. I felt guilty for not feeling more sad. I cried very little. I agree though, I truely felt from the very beginning that there was something wrong. I think that was God's way of preparing me for the inevitable. About 4 months after the m/c I was suddenly bombarded with emotion and I think I finally grieved.

I like the way you worded that you believe in "meant to be's". I got some comfort knowing that what happened was meant to be, but at the time I had no idea what that meant for me. Had I carried my baby to term we wouldn't have gotten Jessica. She was born on 4/17 and I would have been due on 5/7. There would have been no way we would have be able to get her. I know that for me she is my "meant to be".
