Miscarriage

Jess and I have had a miscarriage. We are both deeply saddened, but it's gone so far as to show how much love and support our family and friends provide us. Jess has been pretty strong through all this and is recovering well. She has taken some time to rest and recuperate; with the timing of it she will go back to school in the new year. Although it's very sad for Jess and I, I guess miscarriages are quite common. In the first month or two, I guess 1 or 2 pregnancies are miscarried and women often don't know. In the first trimester, it's 1 in 5 that are miscarried. And later in the pregnancy it's more like 1 in 10. We are hopeful for the future though, as the doctor says miscarriages are no indicator as to how future pregnancies will go, but it is good news that we are able to.
