I just gotta say it feels so good to be able to post about this on fb. I held back saying things for so long but it is part of who I am. I have already found out about one FB friend that had a miscarriage I didn't know about. It's amazing how many of us are out there but how quiet it is all kept.
I just wanted to say a huge thank you to HoneySpider for all that you do with TTH. It has made such a tremendous difference in my life. I am so proud to be able to 'share' links now and not just silently 'like' what you have posted.
Also, a big thank you to awick14 for posting that picture the other day. I changed my cover photo to that and it is how I officially came out about it on FB.
bk1- I am so proud of you! That is a big first step. I got a whole lot of likes and a few comments but not much when I posted mine. (I changed my cover picture)
I am looking info for another picture for my profile picture for tomorrow.
I will be lighting my candle a few hours early tomorrow as I work at 6pm. (I'm just going to pretend that I am doing it with the Eastern time zone, so I'll do it at 4pm my time.)

I have not been very vocal about our loss on FB either. But I posted the picture that Awick posted on here along with information about tonight's wave of light. Thank you ladies for giving me that push to share our loss and hopefully help others or at least be there for them if they want to talk about it.

rockinrobyn- it's hard to come out and post stuff like this. It is very personal, and a hard subject.
I think I might post more things about it, I'm just not sure how DH will react. He is a lot more private then me. So we will see what he says about it. (I am trying to encourage him to post as well, but I doubt he will.)
I am really proud of you guys! Also, you inspired me to find a compromise. I wasn't ready to share our daughter with the world (we like to keep her memory to ourselves), but I wanted to show my support to other women. I posted the following:
awick14, I thought about posting the version of yours that said 'Breaking the silence and telling the world I had a daughter'... maybe next year.
