Aloha my name is Stacie and I am "mom" to 4 beautiful children. This site is began as the journey through my 5th pregnancy which I referred to as our "Unexpected Blessing." But it's also become a site about loss, dealing with miscarrige, renewed hope, and the road beyond this challenge in life.

So I went to the dr’s office today for my appointment. We did the ultrasound and still there is nothing to see, just a gestational sac. No yolk sac, no embryo. I thought by now we’d surely see something. I’ve never had an ultrasound this early before, but with the other kids at 8-9 weeks […]
Can you tell I’m excited about this doctor’s appointment? I just really hope to get the answers I’m looking for. Also, I’m anxious to see the baby and know that everything is going well.

So I am a part of two different June 2007 expecting boards. If you’re an expectant mom and haven’t checked out these types of forums go ahead and give it a try. […]
I know there are people who believe that getting baby things before baby is born is bad luck. I’m not one of them. Speaking of bad luck, it’s Friday the 13th. I actually like Friday the 13th, for some reason, I always seem to have a pretty good day.
Anyway - as far as preparing for […]
So my SIL takes her HPT on Saturday. I’m crossing my fingers for a positive for her! It’s not even my test and I’m all anxious. I really hope this is the month for them. It’ll be nice to have a partner. In fact, I’m supposed to be her partner because she was the one […]
