We lost our little babe. Our extra tiny, strong-willed warrior. Baby boy no. 2, so wanted and so loved. 18 weeks in my belly, forever in our hearts❤️
.
I am literally numb, I’ve been dreading writing these words. I’ve been avoiding social media, it’s taking all I have to post this photo and write this - the most vulnerable post I’ve ever written.
.
But as excruciating as it feels I want to remember every moment and every detail of his last day. The tears we shed, the way Alex held me and spoke to our boy, the last song I sang to him, “Three Little Birds,” never letting go of my belly, reassuring him everything would be ok, telling him how much mommy and daddy love him. How we prayed with the nurses and doctors over his life and passing.
.
How Luca kissed my belly that morning and said “bye, baby”😢💔
.
We were able to say our goodbyes for now, we marveled at his teeny footprints👣 and gave him a name.
.
💙Liam James Covino💙
.
He will always be our son and always be a part of our family. We love him like we love Luca. I know in my heart that one day I will meet my (now) two angel babies in Heaven and get to be their mama👼👼
.
Many of you have been here too, experiencing loss, this nightmare and this unbearable grief. It SUCKS. I understand. I’ve never felt so much anguish, sorrow, compassion or grief in my life.
.
But there is also love. A TON of love❤️ I have never felt wrapped in so much love, support and understanding. Our family and friends, every doctor, nurse, counselor and even strangers - they have shown so much warmth and compassion through this entire journey. And the love we feel for our boy, now and forever, is like no love I’ve ever felt.
.
I want you guys to know we’ve appreciated your support, prayers and positivity over the last 6 weeks so so much. We are devastated by this loss but we are doing ok. We are healing, slowly, and most importantly we are at peace knowing Liam is truly in a better place.
.
Thank you for your unwavering love and support during this difficult time❤️

Because Christmas and matching jammies are my favorite🎄❤️ This pure little soul is the light of my life, I am more in awe of him and more thankful for him with every passing day. Photo is from last year, little 10-month-old Luca😍

TBT to Halloweens past!! 2018 we did Ghosbusters and Wizard of Oz, how was I so on top of my game!? And 2017 was Winnie the Pooh - so good for a preggo Halloween costume (and easy🙌)! I couldn’t find many pics of Alex and I pre-2017, I guess Halloween is just more fun with kiddos🥰👻

I am blown away by this community💗 I’m getting through your messages in response to my stories today, even if I’m just “liking” yours please know I’m reading every word and each one of you is helping me more than you know!
.
I’m currently 16 weeks pregnant and have a 20 month old. I’m trying to navigate this phase of toddlerhood while also managing emotions of the uncertainties surrounding this pregnancy. It’s been hard, Turks was a great distraction but my reality right now is filled with anxiety and tears. Thank god for close family, friends, and you all! I don’t know where I’d be without my support system.
.
If you are going through something similar just know whatever way you are coping is the right way. If you don’t want to talk about it, or if talking about it doesn’t help you, that’s ok. It’s ok not to share. I respect the desire for privacy.
.
For me, I have to share. And I want you to know it’s ok to share. I can’t sit in silence and act like everything is ok when it’s not. That’s not my truth.
.
I’ve always been open with my feelings but I really learned I was this way after my miscarriage in 2017. I started questioning why women were meant to feel ashamed about them. Why they had to suffer in silence or feel weird talking about miscarriages and other topics relating to their bodies. Not because *they* feel weird but because it makes others too uncomfortable. Like society put a big !TABOO! sign on these topics and women should keep to themselves.
.
I’m sorry but that’s BS.
.
If you want to share, share. It helps you and I promise there is someone else out there who needs to hear it. In fact, that premise is what I built my blogging business on.
.
I find peace in relating to others and peace in knowing I’m not alone, as does most of humanity. 1 in 4 women suffer a miscarriage, countless women suffer from PPA, PPD, baby blues and general postpartum shittiness and from your messages I also know a hell of a lot of us go through abnormal ultrasound findings during pregnancy, like me currently.
.
So share the hard stuff, screw the haters, a lot of people get it but some won’t. You set your own boundaries. Life is hard, community makes it better❤
