October 7th, 2014 was a beautiful day, and we were excited for our 36 week Dr. appointment to see our daughter, who we were anxiously awaiting to bring home in 4 short weeks.  Unfortunately, at this appointment, her heart was no longer beating.  We had no warning, no reason why, and no explanation in the days, weeks, months, and now years to follow.  Presli was born still on October 8th, 2014 after inducing labor.  The silence in the room was unbearable, as we still hoped to hear that cry.   To this day we still have no answers as to why this happened. 

The following May, we also said goodbye to a baby boy at 15 weeks.  Again with no warning or reason why.  We were also heartbroken last week as we again said goodbye to another baby at 14 weeks.  Now, all we can do is pray for answers through research.

Please help support the many families with stories similar and different than ours in raising funds for research, and to help raise awareness to this issue, that is more common than many people believe it to be.

 

We are so excited to be participating in the 4th Annual Let's Not Be Still! Pregnancy & Infant Loss Run/Walk.  Money raised from this event will be used to increase awareness, support research, promote education, and encourage advocacy and family support regarding stillbirth.
