I said the same thing to Nathan when I walked into the ER. "Fight for momma baby" We are not suppose to bury our children. It gets easier, not better just easier. Your heart got ripped out and a piece of you died. I've said this before and I'll say it again, take it minute by minute, then graduate to hour by hour. You do get through this. If you need to talk I'm here

I felt exactly the same way. If it weren't for my daughter, I don't think I'd be here. It hurts so bad to lose our babies we just don't know what to do. There's no right answer here. Lean on Siena's mom. She's feeling what you're feeling. If you need more help, any of us are here and ready to help you.

I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
