we lost the baby.
We lost our sweet angel baby at 12 weeks.
Looking at the little muffin in the sonogram with no heartbeat today was heart.wrenching…
it actually hurt even worse than I could have imagined.
it actually hurt even worse than I could have imagined.
I am having surgery tomorrow to “deliver” our sweet little one.
And our roadtrip to California is postponed a few weeks now.
I may not be good at responding to emails for a bit. Just apologizing ahead of time :).
You know I have cried many tears today for this loss. Just knowing that a little angel is gone…a little person that no matter how small or young..it’s still our baby.
I told Chris today that I can’t wait to hug him or her in heaven someday.

I wrote this this morning before i left for the doctor:
I was just sitting here reading through comments and emails from all of you and wanted to say, with tears in my eyes…thank you. Thank you for making me smile and for making me cry thankful, joyful tears.
Thank you for loving me and for wanting to read my story.
Thank you for wanting to share with me the joys and the hardships. Thank you for being my outlet, my special place. What a place of blessings. And peace.
I love each of you. Thank you.

I am so very sorry for your loss. I hate that you are experiencing something no parent should ever have to.

The LORD is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.
I am so so sorry. I know people who have gone through the same thing and I have seen how hard it can be. You and your family are in my prayers. Perhaps she was too special to come to this earth, but she will always be yours. 🙂

I am new to your blog and love your sweet family. I am so sorry about the baby. My daughter lost a baby at 12 weeks as well. She tried the pills to make her naturally deliver. That was terrible and didn't work and she had to have the surgery as an emergency SO I am glad that you are having the surgery right away. It is so sad…..and again so sorry.
My heart hearts for you Casey. I don't even have words to say that would comfort you. You and your family have all my thoughts right now. You are so strong for letting all of us into your lives like you do. You will get through this, I have faith and I know you do too.
I'm so sorry. My heart hurts for you precious sister. Praying now the God of peace would be very near. I'm sorry friend.
Oh Casey. God is watching over you. Praying God gives you peace and comfort during this time. I am dearly sorry. Sending lots and lots of hugs your way!
I don't know you and didn't realize you were expecting, but my heart sank reading the first line of this. I am so sorry for your loss. We serve a great God, and He is gathering your little one to Himself. "Suffer not the little children to come to me."
So sorry!
Prayers going up for you & yours!
I am so so sorry for your loss. I know what you are going through. My second miscarriage was discovered at 12 weeks. I naturally miscarried at 13 weeks. Just remember God has a plan. Every time I look at my beautiful daughter I remember that. I have three angel babies 🙁 Everything happens for a reason and always works out for the best. Grieve for your loss. Get mad, because it isn't fair. When the time is right though, you will hold another baby in your arms. Your faith will get you through.
Oh Casey, I am so sorry 🙁 I can only imagine what you are going through. But I DO know that you will see your sweet angel baby again someday soon. Then that baby will be yours to hold forever 🙂
Delurking.
I'm so so so so so sorry. Losing a baby is the worst thing in the entire world. I pray for your families' healing, yours especially.
*hugs X a million*
Oh friend…I am so sorry for you and your family. I am praying so hard for you. Let me know if you need anything.
I am so sorry for your loss. I will be praying for your strength and peace for your family.
my heart breaks for you. lean on God he will sustain you. and know that you will hold your little angel one day. i am praying for you.
xxO
I have been where you are, and I know words won't do a thing to make it feel any less painful, but know my heart is with you and your family in this trying time, and I hope you can pull through all this together <3
Oh Casey! My heart is aching and breaking for you.
My very first pregnancy ended in a missed miscarriage at 12.5 weeks.
That was almost 9 years ago and it still affects me today.
I think it always will.
But I can tell you that the Lord has woven a beautiful tapestry from that pain and heartache.
Something so precious that I would never take it back.
Many hugs and prayers to you.
so so sorry for the loss of your little angel, prayers are being sent your way.

Casey—I do not even have any kind of right words right now because I do not have babies and therefore could never fully comprehend your loss.
But I just want you to know that I have SO MUCH love for you and I am here if ever you need it. You have been SO THERE for me through my hard times and I want to be able to be that for you also!
You should also connect with Jessi from NaptimeDiaries {let me know if you need her info} as she experienced the same loss not long ago. I think you two could really comfort each other.
Love you.
Tara
I'm so sorry for your loss. I can't imagine how this feels, but I will definitely be praying for God to heal your heart & deliver some comfort to you and your family during this time!
Casey, I am so so sorry. God most definitely has a plan for you and your family and I know you know that but know I among so many others are keeping you and your family in our prayers. Love you and hang in there
I am so sorry! I was in your shoes a year ago, it's so hard but you'll make it! {{{HUGS}}}
Oh Casey I am sitting here with a lump in my throat and tears rolling down my check. I can't imagine what you are going through.
I pray you find peace and although it may be difficult to imagine or understand God has a plan and there is a reason this happened, a reason far beyond what we can understand here on earth.
Sending love and prays to the Wiegand family!
oh casey, i am so sorry. praying for His healing and strength for you and your family.
I'm so so sorry for your loss 🙁 sending love your way!
"Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves have received from God. For just as the sufferings of Christ flow over into our lives, so also through Christ our comfort overflows." – 2 Corinthians 1:3-5
Praying for you and your family, Casey!
Casey, sweet friend… I am heartbroken for you. I am praying for you. Jesus is with you and you will see your angel one day. Praise Jesus for that hope. Thinking of you & your sweet family. Praying always xo
I recently went through a pregnancy loss, but a much earlier stage. I never thought I could cry so much for someone I didn't know for very long. I know your pain, I pray you end up learning and growing something amazing from this.
my dear. so sorry to hear about your loss. keeping you & your family in prayer.
much love,
naomi
jesus. wrap my dear friend in your arms of peace. cover her hurting heart with love that only comes from you. thank you for heaven and the hope it brings.
Precious Casey! My heart is breaking for you my love. Joya Tai and I will be praying for you and your beautiful family! XO

Sweet girl, I'm so sad to hear the loss of your precious little one. Praying for you.
I went through the same thing at 11 weeks a few years ago, sweet angels. My heart aches for you. I hope you can release your feelings through your beautiful artwork & a momentum to this sweet angel.
I am SO sorry. I have tears in my eyes because I can't imagine the hurt you must feel… I'm nearing the tail end of my pregnancy, but my baby is just as important & precious to me now as she was at 3 months and even as soon as I found out I was pregnant… so, the fact that yours was just 12 weeks means absolutely nothing when it comes to a mother's deep love for an unborn child…I hope time softens the blow & that your future will include another opportunity at bearing a precious little baby. Much love & hugs…
Sending prayers your way…may God bring comfort to your soul!
God has a plan and a purpose- even for the hard times.
"ALL things come together for GOOD for those who love the Lord…"
I know it's hard to see right now… but keep your eyes upon Him in this hardship!
Praying for my favorite blog family to have strength.
Love you! XOXO!!
Oh Casey I am so sorry for your loss. I agree with what Gentri said and she/he may have been so special that God wanted to keep him up there with him. Praying for you and your family.
im so sorry for your loss. i just miscarried in march. my second one. our babies are smiling down on us and one day we will hold them 🙂
I am terribly sorry for your loss…. I never post comments but I felt compelled to write this one. I hope for a speedy recovery for your spirit, mind, and body.
sweet friend, i am so so so sorry. i don't even have words. praying for you.
heartbroken for you. praying.
I'm so truly deeply sorry for your loss.
Oh Casey I'm so sorry to hear about baby!!! I know the devastation of a missed miscarriage. I had one at 11-1/2 weeks 7 years ago. I just wrote about in on my blog recently, called "Remembering Our Precious Baby". The flood of all the thoughts about the hopes and dreams about baby were the hardest when we first found out. Driving home was hard. I can't wait to see my baby in heaven.
{{{ Hugs }}} to you Casey and prayers for your family.
Salena
I'm usually a lurker. I know nothing I will say will help ease the pain of such a loss, but just know there are many people praying for your heart to be strengthened during such a hardship.
My heart aches for you, Casey. I'm so so sorry friend that you have to experience this loss. God is good, all the time. I'm praying for you all during this time. I know nothing we can say can help, but I am sending you lots of love and hugs right now. Let me know if I can do absolutely anything. You are loved, cared and prayed for.
grieving with you, friend.

Psalm 71:19-21 ESV
Your righteousness, O God,
reaches the high heavens.
You who have done great things,
O God, who is like you?
You who have made me see many troubles and calamities will revive me again;
from the depths of the earth
you will bring me up again.
You will increase my greatness
and comfort me again.
I am so so soo sorry for your loss. So many prayers for you <3
Oh sweet Casey, I'm so incredibly sorry for the loss of your baby. My heart aches for you. Praying the Lord will wrap His arms around you and give you peace and comfort that only He can give. Hugs friend!
Im so sorry for your lose. Praying for you and your family. <3
Casey, I just read this.
My heart aches for you. No words.
I'm sorry for your lose Casey! My heart and prayers go out to you!
I am so sorry for your loss. I lost two babies to miscarriage between my two living children. There is nothing like the pain of losing a child. I too look forward to meeting my babies in heaven when it's my time. Praying for you
It is hard when you lose your little one, but he is not lost. You will see him or her again. You will get to see him and hug him when your journey is over here. I know this because I too have had losses. But they are never really lost. God knows exactly where they are.
I am so sorry to read this. My friend just lost her baby at 16 weeks 3 days ago. 🙁
Your sweet baby is so lucky to have a beautiful and wonderful family that will be with him someday. You are in my prayers.
xoxoxo
So sorry to hear about your loss. My friend lost her baby at 12 weeks on Friday evening – it was her first, and it really broke her heart. May both of you find peace in these moments of loss.
I am so sorry! Just know that are many who are lifting you and your husband up right now.
I'm so sorry Casey!
I am so sorry for your loss…thinking of you and your family…
I'm so sorry to hear that. I know you will see your little angel again. My brother died when he was only 16 days old. Knowing that I would see him again and that my heavenly father was always there for me made life more bearable. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers.
Casey & Chris, Tears immediately came to my eyes when I read your tweet. I know you don't know me but you have still opened your hearts to me and given me so much inspiration and hope. Your sweet baby may not have been able to make an appearance here on earth but they definitely made one on your hearts (and most of your followers' hearts too). Your baby lived in a family that has love pouring out of it in abundance and will be taking that love to heaven and watching over you as your sweet angel.
My heart and prayers go out to you.
Love,
Kristen
i am so sorry. there are no words. please let me know if there is anything i can do. xoxo
I am so so sorry to hear this…praying for you, for peace and for an easy procedure tomorrow.
I'm so sorry Casey. I pray for peace for you and your family.
Sweet Casey! My heart is aching for you! I am so sorry for your loss but thankful that you and Chris know right where to turn during times of such sorrow! You WILL get to hold that precious baby one day! We are assured of this! Praying for your family… love you sweet friend!
I am deeply sorry to hear this and will keep you and your family in my prayers.
Sweet mama-what a hard thing to experience. It's not just the loss of a baby, but of a future you had hope to have and see grow in front of you. I'm sorry and wish you some moments of peace amidst the pain. I will say baby wiegand's name to our Kansas wind, taking it through all of God's creation in remembrance.
I am just so sorry! We will be thinking of u.
casey! i'm so so sorry. you WILL hug him or her someday. and just imagine how perfect and tear-free and joyful that time will be. and then it will last forever. love you, and praying for you two.
oh my goodness, i'm so sorry honey. i have no idea what that's like, nor can i imagine, but i know it must be painful. i hope you feel jesus wrap you up in a big tight hug, because i know that's what He wants to do. he'll comfort you if you let him. i'll pray for you and your sweet little fam.
I am so terribly sorry. I don't know you, and I've only followed your blog for about a week. But I am truly sorry you're going through this right now.
I am so sorry. 🙁 Glad you can rest in the knowledge that you WILL hold your precious one again in the presence of Jesus some day!
I am so sorry Casey, my heart and love goes out to you and Chris. I have lost 2 babies, one at 8 weeks and one at 10 weeks and both times were unbelievably hard. I have 3 beautiful children on this earth and 2 in Jesus' arms and I too can't wait to hug them in Heaven one day. I send you love and hugs and will pray for you and your family for God to wrap his arms around you.
xoxo
So very sorry for your loss…sending prayers your way. May God heal your broken hearts.
Sweet darling girl, I am so sorry, sorry to all of you for this loss. I wish you a peaceful heart and time to heal. You never get over loss in this life, but you get on with it, every day, and I know you will honor this baby with beautiful remembrance, and we will with you.
I am so, so sorry to hear this. Tears fill my eyes right now as so many emotions hit me. I am sure this is a tough time for you and your little family. My thoughts and prayers are with you. xoxo
I'm SO sorry to hear this. God does have a purpose and plan. You will get to hug that baby in heaven, I can't wait to hug my angel baby, I lost her/him at 10 weeks.
🙁 So, so sorry for your loss. Lifting you and your family up in prayers during this difficult time.
I am so so sorry for your loss- I know exactly what you are going through- I had 2 losses after our 2 daughters were born- Now after our 3rd was born, I look at her and can't imagine another soul. It still makes me sad when I think about it. Hang in there- you have a tremendous support group.. Take care
I'm so sorry, dear! Praying He holds you tightly right now!
Praying for you, for comfort and peace of mind today and in the days ahead.
Blessings and peace,

i am so sorry to hear this. i also lost a baby in may of this year. i was 16 weeks, and also had a d&c, which was very emotional for me. i've blogged a bit about my journey/healing at http://www.registeredmomma.com i would also like to recommend the song Glory Baby by Watermark. it brought so much healing to me. we played it at our baby's memorial service. (we were able to get our little one from the hospital after the d&c and bury it. this was also very healing… being able to see it and bury it where we wanted. helped to bring closure.) you're in my prayers. it's such a hard thing to go through. hugs to you.
I am so sorry for your family's loss; I can't imagine the heartache. My thoughts & prayers are with you.
Hi Casey…I don't know you…but I feel like I do since I follow your blog religiously since I stumbled upon it a little while ao. I just want to say that my heart aches for your loss and I'm so sorry you and your family have to go through this. I hope you find comfort in the kind words of others.
So sorry for your loss. I have had 3 miscarriages and also 3 healthy babies! Stay strong for your other two!
Oh, my gosh, Casey.
Your little one is up in heaven, waiting for his or her mommy and daddy with eager arms for hugs.
Peace, healing and love for you, sweet sweet woman.
Your family is in my prayers. <3

I'm very sorry for your loss. No words can really comfort right now, but our sweet Father can. I experienced the loss of our 2nd baby in Jan, but I was much earlier than you. I never thought I'd cry so much for someone I'd never met! These words really helped me through…
5Let your reasonableness be known to everyone. The Lord is at hand; 6 do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. 7And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:5-7
My favorite part is "the Lord is at hand." He's always at work and in control. My prayers are with you.
oh casey im so sorry for yalls loss. my thoughts are with you.
So sorry! Your family is always in our prayers, but we'll be praying extra hard tonight.
There are no words I can say to take the pain away. Prayers out to you and your precious family.
Oh no! I'm so sorry to her about your loss. Sending you a big comforting hug.
I've only been reading your blog for a week now, but I wanted to leave a comment that I'm sorry for the pain and loss that you're going through. As a mom. As a woman. As a friend to others who've lost their babies. A life is a precious thing to be celebrated and a precious thing to be mourned over after loss. At not easy. I'm glad that you know the redeeming power of Jesus love and comfort, may it show up for you and your family big time right now.
I know your the heartache of a miscarriage. I too lost my little one at 12 weeks. Although time will heal, know that your body did all that it could and you should mourn your family's loss. I miscarried on my pregnancy so it was extremely heartbreaking for our families. Find strength within yourself, your family and your supporters of your amazing blog. A beautiful life is one that is shared and loved. Share in the memory of your lost little one.
Much love to you and your family,
Lillian
I am so very sorry to you and your family. Praying for God's comfort and peace.
I'm so sorry. Praying for you.
I sorry for your loss! I do believe that noone can really understand the pain in which you are experiencing.
Casey, I am so sorry for you loss! I got a sick feeling in my stomach for you… I hurt for you… I am weeping with you… The joyous side is he/or she is with Jesus and is perfect….you will be able to meet him/ or her someday! May God give you peace and rest. I think God was even preparing you in the note you wrote this morning… I am praying for you as you are going through this time of grieving….. Let me tell you God loves you so much! It doesn't feel like it now, but he does….this is one of my favorite songs…by the afters: the chorus goes: You lift me up when I am weak, you love is all that I need, your love is catching me so I letting go! praying for you Casey XO
Casey- so many prayers going your way and for your family. I am so sorry to hear this tragic news.
Blessings…
I just read this and my heart completely sunk. I am SO sorry for your loss! Losing a baby at any age must be the hardest thing to go through. Not to mention the surgery on top of it! I am praying for you, I wish you comfort and a quick physical recovery. I am so sorry. Love you!
My heart breaks for you and your family right now. I know He will give you peace, He will calm your heart, He will show you his love so fully. And how blessed we are to know Him! To think about going through such loss without our Savior…is unfathomable to me. Sending love and prayers to you. <3
I am so sorry for your loss! I am sending prayers and hugs to you and your family.
I lost a little one 23 months ago. It hurt so much and I cried for days. Everyone said, "everything happens for a reason," and "God always has a plan." I hated those words. I didn't want to think about there being a plan that would cause me pain. A month after we lost our first baby, I found out I was pregnant again. Eight weeks into the second pregnancy, I found out I was carrying twins. When I look at my little daughters now, I have no doubt that God had a plan. He needed that first little baby in heaven. And he needed my little girls to be here on earth with me.
Trust in God. He always has a plan. There is a reason for everything. I hope that you heal quickly and that you're able to find peace in this hard time.
Oh Case! I cannot even imagine. You have such a tenderheart and I can put myself in your shoes. I feel your pain right now and I feel your heartache. I'm so sorry. Our Lord is Our Comforter. I love you.
oh my goodness, this bought me to tears. praying that you find healing and peace. i'm so sorry for your loss.
Casey, I am so sorry for the loss of your little one. You and your family will be in our prayers! When you're struggling with the "why" try to remember It's Enough That God Knows…and He does. He knows your heart, your hurt, your disappointment. And He also knows the reasons, and the answers, and the outcome. Praying for you friend <3
Your reactions to the most devastating situations are the most beautiful witnesses for the Lord that I have ever seen.
You amaze me and I don't even know you.
Praying for you and your family.
I am so sorry for your loss. I am praying for you.
xoxo
I am so sorry for your loss. Your family is in my prayers.
My heart breaks for you! Praying for healing for your body and heart and for your family. Praising God that you know Him, He will get yo through this! You are such a strong amazing woman and are sooo encouraging to others. So sorry for your loss…God will definitely use this for His glory though, thats a promise. Hang in there girl!
I am really so sorry to hear this Casey. My heart breaks for you and I just want you to know that I am praying for you and your family. And that God is still there with you guys and will carry you through this. I love you my sister.

My heart hurts for you. So very sorry.

I'm so sorry, Hun for you loss. Its never easy. You and your sweet family are in my thoughts and prayers tonight. Lots of love your way.
Casey,
Totally heartbreaking to lose a baby but also remember God has written your story & knows your sorrows, tears & pain.
I also have an angel baby waiting for me in Heaven…they will welcome us when it's our time.
You have a special place in my prayers!!!
I am so incredibly sorry. I pray your heart heals quickly.
I can't even imagine this kind of loss, Casey. I'm so sorry for you and your family. Love and hugs to you all.

Casey and Chris,
We, here in Cali, are praying for you too…knowing tomorrow holds a difficult farewell. May the Father bless you with His supernatural arms around you with gentle comfort. Be assured that He is a Daddy who knows what it is like to lose a Son. And He is the One who conquered death and gives new life…the grave could not hold His Son!! He will walk this valley with you…Psalm 23, Isaiah 40:11. Looking forward to meeting you in a few weeks.
I am so sorry for your loss, I can't imagine how hard that is, but remember everything happens for a reason. God is in control.
There really are no words that seem right to say…
Lifting your dear little family up in prayer. May He be your strength and your song in this rough time.
Oh, Casey. My heart sank as I just read the title to your post. I don't even know you in "real life", but as a sister in Christ know that your loss and hurt is felt and carried by many. My heart and prayers go out to you and your family. Wish I could hug you through the computer screen tonight. I know that the Lord will be your portion and strengh during this time. <3 lesley
So, so, so incredibly sorry. I am saying a prayer for you at this very moment – for comfort and peace and a sense of His love for you.
I'm so sorry for your loss. I remember how hard it was for all of our family when my brother & my sister-in-law-to-be lost their baby.
Envelope yourself in the love and strength of your family & friends and know that others are keeping you in their thoughts. You are only given what you can bear-even when you wish it wouldn't be so much.
So many positive & loving thoughts to you and your family.
Your sweet baby cannot wait to see you, I respect and love momma's that have little ones in heaven. You are in our prayers!
So sorry for your loss. My heart aches for you. Praying that God's peace & comfort surrounds you and your family during this time.
i can't even imagine how you are feeling. oh my goodness. i am so so sorry. i am praying for you guys so much.
Dear Casey,
I am so sorry to hear that you lost your little angel. I believe that we all come here for a purpose; to prove ourselves worthy to return back to God. Your little baby was so perfect that he or she was already ready to return back to God, he or she had already proved itself worthy in heaven. Just remember that you will be able to see that darling perfect child of yours again one day :). I will be praying for you and your family.

My heart aches for you. Stay strong and take comfort knowing your baby is safe and happy. Xo
Oh Casey 🙁
I am so terribly sorry for you and your loss…I have sadly been there twice this year and it is NOT FAIR. Sending you lots of love and hugs.
my heart is broken for you 🙁 I am so sorry for your loss. I know that as painful as it is to hear this right now…this WILL be used to glorify Him, in ways we can't understand right now.
It breaks my heart to read this. I am so sorry for you loss, but what a joy in knowing that that sweet little angel baby is somewhere where you can see him/her again some day. I'm praying for your comfort through this difficult time.
I am so, so, so sorry. My heart breaks for you three. I will be praying for you strength, bc I know that is all I can do.
I am so so very sorry for what has happened to you and your family. Today, we found out our sister in law lost her daughter who was 8.5 months along. It is a heartbreaking day and we hope that you and your family start to heal. Thoughts and love your way.
I am so sorry for your loss. I will keep you all in my prayers during this time.
Oh, Casey. My heart aches for you, your husband, and your whole family. This is such a hard thing, but you are so correct… the baby is in heaven and you will get to hug the little one so much one day!
My husband and I just prayed for you and your family. We will continue to pray for yall. May His peace flood your heart. We love you.
Praying for you and your family. My heart is broken for you but I'm hoping you find comfort in the Lord at this time.
So sorry for your loss, my heart aches for you. Take comfort in knowing you will hug him or her in heaven someday.

Casey and family,

jo'ee
I'm so sorry for your loss, Casey. I will be praying for you and your family.. xoxo
Casey, I am sorry that for your loss…I know your pain all to well. I believe that God is good and he will get you and your family through this difficult time. I lost sweet babies too, but I truly believe that everything happens for a reason, I would never have met my darling baby boy Landon. So where there is pain, the Lord will deliver new blessings. We will meet our babies one day. stay strong. many prayers headed your way. Anna
Casey (and Chris), I am a new follower to your blog and have intended to email you multiple times throughout the past couple of weeks to let you know how touched I have been by the story God has given you to share. With that now said, I trust that this is a vital moment in that story! where God is doing something in and though your family to glorify Himself. I am deeply sorry for your loss and tonight will be sure to petition our Father for grace and peace to fall on your home. Thank you for allowing so many women to see your heart (even when its broken), believe me when I say it is beautiful. Love, Kristen
I am so sorry for your loss. That is never an easy thing to deal with. It really stinks. Praying for your family, your healing, and your health.
I was so sad to read this tonite. I will pray for you and your sweet family and angel baby in heaven.
Bless and keep you…
ROselle
oh casey, i am so heartbroken for you and your sweet little family. a close friend of mine recently went through a similar situation, and i know how hard it is. i will be praying for you often, especially tomorrow.
I have never commented on your blog before and I am a somewhat recent follower. I personally hate it when people tell say they are sorry for your loss, because in my mind I can't possibly tell them it's okay because it isn't okay. But I will say that this has happened for a reason and even though the little one was only here for 12 weeks, they will be with you forever. My heart aches when I see people grieve because I know it is a tough and grueling process, but one day things will start to feel "normal" again and it will not be so hard. I hope that the pain eases soon and that you can find peace with this. You have a beautiful family and I pray that you all will gain strength from this.
Casey,
Your message came across my phone, and my stomach sank. I immediately got on my laptop, hoping some of the message was wrong, or cut off. I am typing this with tears in my eyes, I am so sorry. I feel sick. I lost an angel baby too..and I hate knowing someone that I care about (you) has endured that loss too. I have come to think of your blog, your daily entries of your life & family as my friend. Just know that I am thinking of you and your family, and I wish I could give you a hug. You are in my prayers. Courtney
I am SO sorry Casey. Praying for you guys …
I know there is nothing that any of us can say right now to make the pain go away or to make the situation any better. Just know that there are many of us praying for you and there are many of us who have experienced similar losses.
I do want to give this to you. Someone wrote it to me after I lost our first baby girl: "Your baby has known only the most wonderful comfort of this world. The only world she knew here on earth was the warm, protective place from within you. She heard your voice, and was rocked to sleep by your movement. She was kept warm by your body, and was sheltered from all harm. When it was time for her to leave you, she knew no pain, no fear, no sadness. She went straight into her Savior's arms where she is warm and protected. She hears His voice, and is rocked to sleep by His movement. He keeps her warm, and shelter's her from all harm. She will never know pain, or fear, or sadness. She has only known the two most wonderful places, yours and His…"
sweet girl, I'm so sorry! God is good and you will hold your baby one day! Praying for you during this time.
I'm so very sorry for your loss. I'll be praying for you and your family.
I am so sorry to hear that. That sweet little child ran home and woke up in our dear God's loving arms. My prayers are with you two and your kiddos.
Best,
Carly
Omg I am so truely deeply sorry my heart aches for you I don't know what there is to say except you and your family are in my prayers ugh so so so sad
Oh Casey, I'm so so sorry for the loss of your little sweet one. Its heart breaking, as a mama I know you are shedding tears as you've been anticipating with such excitement. I will be praying for you. Sending hugs!!
I am so sorry for your loss and the pain your family is feeling.
Alison
I am praying for you sweet sweet casey girl….I am sending you big hugs love…I have miscarried and I know the pain you are feeling…you are wonderful..just remember that!
xoxo
i am so sorry for your loss. i will keep you & your family in my prayers. good luck beautiful.
For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Jeremiah 29:11
1 Peter 5:7
Cast all your anxiety on Him because He cares for you.
Psalm 46:1-2
God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea.
Psalm 55:22
Cast your cares on the LORD and he will sustain you; he will never let the righteous fall.
Psalm 71:20-21
Though you have made me see troubles, many and bitter, you will restore my life again; from the depths of the earth you will again bring me up. You will increase my honor and comfort me once again.
Nothing is more comforting than God's Word at a time like this. I wish I knew what to say, but I'm sure you've heard all the cliches already. Just know that my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. And that precious little baby is looking down on you from Heaven smiling. He or she is so proud that you are his/her mommy. That baby is so lucky to call you all his/her family. And as sad as it is that you will never know your baby on this earth, he or she will never have to know that pain in this world that comes along with sin. He or she will live forever in the glory of God, waiting to be with you once again. :]
Again, my thoughts, prayers, and love are with you and your family during this time of loss.

I am so very sorry for your loss. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.
my heart is heavy reading this tonight! i will keep you close and in my prayers. Jesus loves your sweet baby, so much, and you will be with them both one day!
I am so very sorry. It is such a hard, totally sucky thing to lose your baby. My heart and my tears are with you. I suffered through two miscarriages between my first and second babies, and it was a hard road. My bloggie friend Jessi recently shared a post on her own loss, and in that post she shared a letter from a friend of hers which really comforted me, even years after my own miscarriages. Here's the link: http://thiscameratellsmystory.blogspot.com/2011/08/in-memoriam-isabella-marie_19.html
Hugs and prayers to your family.
As soon as I read the title my heart sank for you all. My prayers are with you and your family!
I'm thinking about you and Chris tonight and praying for you.
"Nevertheless, God's solid foundation stands firm, sealed with this inscription: 'The Lord knows those who are his.'" -2 Timothy 2:19
Casey,
Your blunt honesty and willingness to share is such a gift. So many go through this, and yet fear sharing and opening up. Thank you for enabling us to pray for you through your honesty.
Prayers for you especially as you walk through tomorrow.
So sad to read this post tonight. 🙁 Praying for you, Chris and your family. Hang in there Mama!
I am so sorry for your loss. Praying for you
Ohhh. Im so sorry to hear that. I lost a baby at 12 week, two 1/2 years ago. I know how sad you must be feeling. Praying for you guys. God WILL heal your heart. Your precious baby is with him. We just aren't living in a perfect world, there are no answers sometimes. Much Love and hugs. xo
Praying for you, for healing, for comfort and peace through this difficult time. So sorry for your loss. Life is so hard sometimes, but I can't wait until we are all together again without anymore sadness or pain!
i'm so sorry. We had a miscarriage about 2 years ago, and haven't been able to get pregnant again since. My doctor didn't give me the option for a hospital delivery though, and I had to "deliver" at home. Worst experience of my life. Keep you head up. I'm so sorry. You are strong and beautiful, and so many people in this world who love you.
my thoughts are with you.
-Heather
I am so so sorry Casey for your loss. Wish I could give you a hug in real life. Sending massive love and prayers for healing XO
I am so sorry for your loss, I will be praying for you and your family at this time. I pray the Lord's peace over you, His comfort, and the truth that You are truly His beloved.
My heart hurts for you right now Casey. I have been there (12 weeks too) and I know how much you are missing that angel baby right now. You guys will be in my prayers.
dearest Casey, my heart is so torn for your loss! i am so sorry you and your family have to go through such a hard and sorrowful trial. you are an inspiration and so strong to share this with all of us. i KNOW that you will be able to be with your sweet one again and hug and love them. it will be a joyous reunion 🙂 you are in our thoughts and prayers. know that you are loved by all your friends & readers and most importantly by the Lord. we love you and hope your family will be able to find the light through this trial.
Megan
Casey and Family,
I am so very sorry for your loss; please know that I am thinking of you and lifting you all up in prayer. I pray that you find peace and comfort in Him.
With Love,
Angie
oh dear sweet casey….my heart broke as i read your blog post title in my news reader this evening. just finished praying for you and your family…..that God will comfort you as you deal with this loss and make His presence known to you and wrap His love around you. I know that you are already leaning into God and trusting that His strength will get you through. many hugs to you sweetie!!!! <3
Casey, I'm so sorry! What heart wrenching news to hear as a mommy. Praying for you and your family. Love you!
Praying God's grace and love over you and your family. Last month, my husband passed away. We have two children. The best way I know to encourage you, is to stay in the word. Set your eyes on things above! It feels to know that we'll see our loved ones again! God is so good – ESPECIALY in times like this! Lean on Him! <3
precious sweet love… ((hugs)) to you and your beautiful family Casey. Psalms 91:4
I'm so sorry for your loss, I can't imagine what you're going through. You and your family are in my prayers tonight. I know that God will offer you all peace despite your grief and that this sweet babe is safe in heaven with him.
casey, i am so so sorry for your family's loss. you are right, no matter how small they are still your perfect little baby. i am sending you prayers and comfort, knowing that God will wrap his arms around you during this time.
I'm sorry for your loss. I understand how you feel, as i lost my baby last christmas at 11weeks. It was so heartbroken. I cried so many tears for weeks… Thinking of you and your family xxx
I'm so sorry for your loss! Stay strong! 🙂
So sorry for your loss. Have you heard of the book "Heaven is for Real"- if not, get it! Its a great reminder that heaven is for REAL and that one day we'll meet people who we hadn't even met this side of eternity. Praying for you!
Casey- I'm so sorry for your loss. It must be so heart breaking. My prayers go out to you. Keep leaning on your faith, HE will guide you.
hello Casey, I really can't imagine what you and Chris must be going through right now. I can't imagine how you must be feeling… and there's not much I could say except that I am sorry for your loss, and I will keep you and your family in my prayers.
there's no words that could amount to what you're going through, but I have faith that you'll get through this, together with Chris and your loved ones, and your little angel will love you from above as much as you'll love him/her from where you are. xx
I'm so, so sorry. There are no words. I will be praying for you and your family.
love to you sweet girl. Praying for God's peace and comfort during this difficult time.
Casey, I'm so sorry, which I know doesn't help dull the pain. Take comfort that you will get to hold your little one at some point. The Lord is merciful and sometimes has a greater work on the other side for these sweet little spirits. I am truley sorry though, I went through this myself for 2 1/2 years losing 7 pregnancies, all had little heart beats and where little people we were excited to have in our family, but the Lord had a greater plan for them. I promise it will stop hurting at some point, but don't be afraid to mourn there is healing in that and peace. Turn to the Savior and He will heal and love you. I came to know Him, truely KNOW HIM through that experience. It was hard but such a blessing, and I know i'll be with my little kiddo's again. Your in my prayers:)
Oh Casey!!! I can't imagine what you must be going through – I'm so sorry this happened. I'll be praying for you and Chris! Sending you cyber hugs right now…..
I'm so sorry for your loss. God does everything for a reason even though we may not know what it is. I will be praying for your family as u go through this difficult time.
I am so sorry Casey! My husband and I lost our first baby and although we have had three beautiful children since then i still think about that baby and what he or she would be like. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers!
the only place that can love our babies more perfectly than we can is in the arms of our heavenly father. so sorry for your painful loss. i know it all to well myself. how wonderful the comfort is knowing that we will get to love on those babies when we meet them in heaven one day. until then, cling to your precious family and the hope from our Lord.
We lost our baby at 14 weeks last winter, and it was the hardest thing we have ever gone through. But, you get through it a little bit more every time you squeeze your littles. Now you all have an angel on your shoulders!
ps im now 14 weeks preggo with my next baby, and praying for a healthy pregnancy. You will be pregnant again!!
Casey, I am so sorry. That is heart wrenching news. Hope you and your hubby can stay strong in the Lord and keep the faith despite this loss. Praying for you and your sweet family.
Oh Casey, I'm so sorry! So very, very sorry.
Oh Casey, I've only been following your blog for a little while now but I can definitely relate. I'm so deeply sorry for this loss to your family. Words can't describe what pain your going through but I pray that you're comforted in knowing that child is with its heavenly father. I'm praying for you all that you're able to get through this time together & become even more united as a family. Much love to you. XXXXXXXX
Oh gosh…my prayers are with you and your sweet family. God needed your little one too early-but He always has a purpose and that embrace in heaven will be so sweet that you will not be able to hold on to the pain of the loss. I am so sorry. Hold to the love and let the pain heal. Hold on the the love of our Lord. I am praying for you.
Casey, I'm so sorry. Prayers for you & your family… {{hugs}}
I'm so sorry to hear about your loss. I know that there is nothing that anyone can say that makes the pain go away, as I have lost 3 little ones. I long to hug them for the first time in heaven as you said you do! I will be praying for you in the weeks to come as you and your family deal with this.
I'm so, so sorry for your loss Casey! My heart is breaking for you right now… Losing babies is one of the hardest things I have been through in my life. Having done it both ways now I have to say that surgery was easier on my body than doing it on my own. I hope it is for you. You will be in my thoughts and prayers. If you need anything or want to chat about it just email me (if you still have my email from the guest post.)
Love and hugs always,
Kerstin
Praying for you and your family during this difficult time, you're so brave and I'm so sorry for your loss.
I know there's nothing anyone can say to make you feel better. I went through the same thing last year and it was the hardest thing to "get over" I dont think I really am or ever will be, cause I still think about the baby every single day. But it will get easier. I'm so so sorry for your loss, you and your family are in my prayers.
Oh, Casey. I am so very sorry. But your little muffin is with Jesus now and he or she is not sad about it all. Love to you!
I'm so sorry, Casey. I know you must be hurting very much right now. Sometimes life is so incredibly hard.
Much love,
Becky from THAT’S WHAT’S UP
I feel like "im sorry" just isn't enough…it can't be because they're just words and what you lost is more than what can be empithized with in words. i dont know you and im sure i never will but if i could give you a hug i would. your family and your faith will get you through this…but for now i think it's okay to just let it hurt. feel it, recognize it, and then when you're ready, move on from it. sending you sweet thoughts <3
oh Casey! I don't even know what to say…. I hope you, Chris, and your sweet children are all hugging each other tight. Your faith and love will get you through this. Thinking of you.
If I can do anything AT ALL please let me know!
love you all
Casey, I don't know you and I am a fairly new reader to your blog. But when I saw your tweet last night I wanted to cry. I can't imagine what you are going through, but I know it is not easy. Thinking about you and sending well wishes your way. xxo, Emily
I'm so sorry for your loss. My heart goes out to you and your family.
I am so sorry for your loss. My heart breaks for you and your family. I cannot even imagine the agony that comes with losing a child. I pray that He continues to watch out for you and that He has amazing things planned for your future.
Casey you are so strong and I know your faith and beautiful family will get you through this. Praying for the Wiegands lots today. Hugs!
I am so very sorry for you loss… I'm only 6 weeks along with our first and one of my worst fears is losing our little one before ever meeting them. You're such a strong woman to handle it with such grace. My deepest heartfelt sympathy goes out to you.
OH HONEY! I"m so sorry. I know this feeling. We lost our first baby. Time will heal your pain. Jesus… will heal your pain. Praying for you sweet girl!
Oh sweet Wiegand Family! I am so sorry to hear this. Many prayers for you!
"Be still & know that I am God" -Psalms 46:10
Your family is in my thoughts and prayers! How comforting to know that you have a child waiting for you with God.
So sorry to hear of your loss. You and your family are in my prayers.
I will be praying that God will carry you through this difficult time! Trust in the precious hands of God and know that that is where your sweet baby is!
I am so sorry Casey 🙁 This had me in tears. I have no doubt in my mind your angel will always be with you and watch over you. I'm thinking of you and praying for you and your family. Sending my warmest wishes…<3
I am so sorry for your loss. It is a pain a mother should never have to experience. My husband and I went through this last year and it was the hardest thing we have had to do but brought us so much closer to each other and to our heavenly father! I know God has this perfect plan for your family. I will be praying for your strength. I wrote about our story on my blog. praying for you.
I am so incredibly sorry! I have just started following your blog and your sweet little family! I will keep you in prayer and I know God is holding you right now through all of this!!
Sending love & prayers your way.
I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. I'm praying hard for you and your family at this time- I can't imagine how difficult this must be for you.
oh my gosh, i am so sorry. this brings tears to my eyes just thinking about it.
i just pray that God would cover you and your family with peace and love. i pray that you will be surrounded by friends and family and love and that you will be reminded of how blessed you are. thank you for sharing something so new and raw.
I am so very sorry for this difficult time. You and your family are absoutely beautiful and God has the perfect plan for you all! Prayers sent to you and please just how amazing you are!
Biggest hugs to you!
I am so sorry for your loss Casey.
I too lost a baby of my own.
And no pain in this world can come close to that feeling..
I know you will make it through this season of loss, with God by your side, leading the way.
You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.
Much love to you.
<3
Jessica
tears and prayers for you and your family 🙁 i am so sorry, casey.
I'm so sorry to hear this. Your family will be in my prayers. Prayers for peace, in this hard time.
oooh Casey… My heart breaks for you. No one should have to feel the pain of the loss of a child. Thank goodness for the grace of our heavenly Father. Your sweet angel baby is in heaven rejoicing with Him. I know that doesn't make it any easier.
I have never lost a child so I can't relate to the pain. But I can let you know that I'm praying for you and that you aren't alone. One of my sweet friends has been through this pain twice. She is such an inspiration to me. I thought you might find her blog helpful to you in this time of heartbreak.
http://message4mommys.blogspot.com/
Casey,
I am truly and deeply sorry. I'll be praying for you during these days to come.
i can't tell you how sad i am to hear this news. my heart aches for you right now. many prayers for you and your family right now, i am so sorry casey!
Casey, I cannot imagine your feelings of loss & sadness right now.
The only reassuring words I can offer is just knowing that your little baby is safe with Jesus now, and you will meet him or her one day.
Not sure if you have read the book Heaven is for real- but I encourage you to pick it up. It is an incredible story and it may comfort you in this time.
Lindsey
Casey- I am so sorry to hear this. You are the third person that I have heard of recently losing a baby at that exact same time. I will be praying for you and your sweet family as you mourn the loss of your baby.
So very sorry. My thoughts are with you.
Kacie
Casey- My heart is broken for you & Chris. Sending up lots of love and prayer for you four today.
Oh Case.. I am so so sorry to hear about your loss.
I know the pain and how bad it hurts when you look at that screen and see a little babe with no heartbeat. We went through that exact experience October of 08 with our first baby.
I had to have that surgery the following day as well.
PLEASE contact me if you just want to talk and have your feelings validated. Some things you will feel in the days to come will not make sense to anyone unless they have gone through it.
Love you girl and I am praying extra extra grace for you. I am weeping with you today.
I just discovered your blog within the last couple of weeks. I guess it's time for me to make my first comment.
So sorry for your loss. I am not a momma but I have walked with a dear friend through this loss. There are no words other than to say "I'm sorry"…praying for you and your family as you grieve this sweet angel baby. May you find comfort and peace in the arms of those who love you deeply.
My heart hurts for you and your lovely family. I'll be praying for you!
I am so sorry Casey! I can't even imagine the pain you must feel. Keep your faith girl. You are a beautiful person, both inside and out. You will get through this. God has bigger plans for you than you could ever imagine… but you already know that! HUGS!
You and your family will be in my prayers. Keep looking to God for strength and He will surely provide for all of your needs.
xo L.
Oh girl..I am so sorry. Praying for you this morning..at my desk. I have a sibling in heaven that I will meet some day. You are so beautiful and strong- rest in the peace of His arms- love you- hugs- -Jess
no. no, no, no.
ah, this is so sad friend. my heart breaks for you & Chris & for the little one you'll never know. but think about it: your little one is in heaven & you most definitely get to see the baby again! praise God!!
I'm so very sorry you have to feel this kind of pain. It's a pain unlike any other in the world. Sending hugs and prayers your way.
I am so sorry Casey. I'm a newish reader here, and when I saw the title of this post, I gasped. In February at 14 weeks I went in for an ultrasound and there was no heartbeat. We found out our little one was a girl. My entire story is on my blog. I am so sorry for your loss, I know how truly devastating this is. Sending love.
I am so very sorry for the loss. I have three angels myself and I can't wait for the day we are reunited. You are in my prayers.
I am so sorry Casey. I'll be praying for you and your family. Hugs & love.
Liz
Casey, there are no words to soothe your loss. I know you and Chris are strong, so your faith will overcome this low point in life. Praying for you and the family always.
Love, Christine
Casey,
I'm so heartbroken and devastated for you and your family's loss. Having said goodbye to three babies of my own, I know the pain and numbness that comes with such a great loss. I believe without a doubt that one day, your family with be reunited in the presence of God and you and Chris will be able to meet and love on this precious little one. My prayer is, that in the coming days and weeks, you might find peace in knowing that your baby is in the care of the almighty.
Though I am positive you will hear tons of advice and opinions, one thing that really helped my husband and I as we dealt with losing our babies, was giving them a name. I don't know what is so powerful and healing about that, but it was for us.
Praying that God's nearness will surround you.
Grace and Peace,
Sarah Miller
I left a comment earlier, but it didn't show up and I wanted to make sure that you got it…
Just want you to know that you are in my prayers. We lost our first baby and it hurts. No matter how long you were pg…it hurts. that was still your baby. I"m sorry for the hurt. Jesus will heal your hurt over time.
Bless you sweet casey!
So sorry sweet Casey. Heartbroken for you and your family.
My heart breaks for you and your family. I'll be praying for your health and that God may comfort you and Chris throughout this difficult time. Thank you for sharing such a personal struggle with all of us. I hope you always feel that this blog is a place where people care and support you.
You are loved Casey…. Just know that your baby is in the palm, safe and sound, in the Master's hand. Thinking of you….
So sorry for your loss. I hope you and your family can find peace during this difficult time.
You and your beautiful family are in my prayers, I am so sorry for your loss.
Thank you so much for sharing. So many women have gone thru the same thing and not enough of them talk about it. These are the times when you need others to walk with you and pray for/with you. I will be praying for you and your family!
Oh Casey, I'm so sorry to hear about your loss! My prayers are with you and your sweet family. Sometimes God's ways are SO hard for us to understand, but thankfully you have the comfort of knowing you'll see your little angel again in heaven. Praying!
oh Casey, I am so sorry for your loss. my heart breaks for you & your family. take some time for you and know that your blog-family ALL love you =] we do! I look forward to your posts everyday ( I have been wondering how you talk? LOL funny but i was wondering if you have an accent or talk like a valley girl or what – Raaaaaaaandom – lol ) Just know you are in my thoughts and prayers and you have an angel up there keeping an eye on you ~ Xo
oh Casey my heart just hurts for you. please know that you are being lifted up to our Adoring Savior. He loves you, so dearly, so much, as He does your sweet baby who is with Him. He knows your pain and sorrow for He too, lost a child once. Take care of yourself and trust in our God who knows all and loves you beyond words.
I know I already left you a comment… I just wanted to say something more… As I was driving to today, I prayed for you! Then I just had this overwhelming feeling to tell you this…. God never designed it to be this way, to have loss, pain,suffering and sadness and death. That wasn't his orignal plan. His orignal plan was perfection, happiness, joy and…life. So many people wonder why God allows bad things to happen. All I know is the world the way it is, wasn't his plan, wasn't his intention. So know that the loss of your baby wasn't his plan, wasn't his intention. However, he can and will make something beautiful out of your loss. I am praying for you still as your going through this! May God Give you peace that passes ALL UNDERSTANDING!
love you Case!
Casey,
I am so sorry for you and Chris and the loss of your precious baby. No words can explain the somewhat unseen magnitude of the grief of miscarriage. I want you to know that we are praying for you down here in San Antonio – that grief is grief, that it is real, that not only did you lose your baby but all of the dreams you had (consciously or subconsciously) for this little one's life.
My heart hurts so much for you.
We will continue praying for your health and for the healing of you and your family's hearts.

I am so sorry for your loss. As a mom of 3 angels (including our son who was stillborn at 32 weeks) I know the hurt and sadness that you're feeling. Just look to God for comfort, he will help you and your family get through this, I promise!
Casey – another thought:
(and this is a bit private, so I was going to e-mail you, but I cannot figure out how to do that, being rather technologically behind…)
Something that can help, though I hesitate to use the word "help", but can aid families experiencing this kind of loss, is to embrace some sort of ritual or ceremony that gives tangible expression to your feelings, to your grief.
Perhaps you guys have already thought of some of those things.
Anyhow. My husband and I experienced this many years ago when our oldest had just turned one and I remember that being able to acknowledge our sadness through our own homemade ceremony was integral to our ability to process the tragedy.
You are in our thoughts.
So sorry for your loss and praying for supernatural peace and joy during these hard days. LOVE!
I am a new follower and was so sad to see your post yesterday. I just want you to know that I'm thinking about you today as you go through one of the hardest things a Mommy has to go through. You are loved and watched over and everything does happen for a reason and one day I'm sure you will know why. Hugs to you and prayers for a quick healing. Rebecca
So so so sorry to hear! Praying for God's peace in a time that makes no sense and just hurts. He will use this somehow, someday!
:'( At such a sad sad time like this there are two things I see here that make me really happy. That you know you will hug him/her in heaven, and to see the mounds of support you and your family have. I can't imagine the pain. Love and strength to you and your family through my thoughts and prayers!

I am so so sorry. I lost a daughter as an infant and the pain is unbearable. Hoping for moments of peace for you.
I know that no words could make you feel better right now but I am so sorry for you and your family. Absolutely breaks my heart to hear about your angel baby. You and your husband have each other and you have those wonderful babies of yours to keep you going. Just know, people are thinking and praying for you.
i am a fairly new follower to your sweet blog and i typically don't comment often, but today i need to. i've been where you are…twice before and there are no words that can express that pain and anguish that you feel…but you are not alone. the one thing that brought me some comfort was knowing that our lord is holding my sweet little ones until i can get there and hold them myself. blessing, hugs and prayers to you.

I'm so sorry. I can't imagine and I'm not even close to being a mama, but oh. You have all my love and thoughts and prayers. <3

I am so sorry for your loss.
Bless your heart, praying for you and yours.
casey…….honey. words can't even express…..i have none. i love you and i will pray for you and your family. you all are loved.
Dearest,
my heart is mourning with your family. we have also lost a baby. it is a very real grief, but also a very private sort of momma grief. YOU and GOD knew that child and it hurts like you never expected it would. believe it when i say that you will also heal like you never thought you would. it will happen. "those who go out weeping, will come again with joy"
My heart breaks for you and Chris right now. Tears are in my eyes, a prayer in my heart, and a virtual hug being sent over the internet.
xoxo. Prayers for healing.
You are so strong.
Thinking of you!! You are in my prayers, sweetie!!
xoxo
There are no words that can be said to take away your hurt. I am so very sorry for the loss you are dealing with. Just know that you and your beautiful family are in my thoughts and prayers.
With Love,
Nitzalie
Crying and hurting for you and your family.

Dearest Casey – My heart breaks along with yours for the loss of your beautiful baby. Your sweet wee one will be waiting on you and you will be reunited one glorious day. I hope that my prayers will lift you up and peace will fill you. Many hugs and kisses! Jenn
I am truly sorry to read this sad news. Praying for healing for you and Chris.
I am so genuinely sorry, Casey. I cannot imagine the pain you must be going through, but know that all of us are thinking of you and loving you. I know that there's nothing I can do, but to offer my condolensces and send you love.
Always,
Amanda
though I've never met you, my heart reaches out to you…
I experienced a miscarriage in may 2010 and it's the worst feeling in the world…the tears do not seem to end… I still think about that baby everyday…
Our babies are now in Heaven ~ Jesus is holding them in his arms.
I hope you find comfort and peace. I'm praying for your heart to heal.
Sending hugs to you from NC.
casey! i just read this. oh my word i am so so so sorry. miscarriage SUCKS but i do believe wholeheartedly that we will meet those little ones in heaven and get to hug them then. in the meantime, snuggle up close to your two sweet ones and chris and cry if you need to. thinking of you.
I am shocked. I sit here just remembering Lindsey mentioning your 3rd pregnancy and feeling so happy for you. Now, I am just sad for you and your beautiful family. I can't imagine what you must be going through but know good thoughts and prayers are being spoken for you to find strength. God bless.
You are such a strong woman you may not think so but you are! praying for your family !
Hi Casey –
hopemommies.org is a great organization to support women who have experienced infant loss.
I am so sorry for you loss. Praying for you and your family.
My heart goes out to you and your sweet family. I just barely stumbled upon your blog but I feel your pain and love you!
I'm feeling so sorry for your loss… Warm thoughts from France…
Casey, I am so sorry to hear about the loss of little Addison. I pray that the Holy Spirit will be your comfort during this time of sadness.
There are no words for such a loss. I have been there 4 times before. Prayers and hugs…
My heart just broke for you as I sat here reading and catching up on your blog! I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your little one! I am praying for healing and comfort for you and your family! I wish I could be there to give you a hug!
I am sorry, Casey. Love you much, Sweetie! ~ Jo
Oh how my hear aches for you dear. I've walked this path and I hope you (or Chris) do make a video at some point. It helps those who have not walked in our shoes understand a bit more. I wish I had some comforting words for you … but I don't … there just are not any for a time like this. I send hugs and prayers. We created a video recently for the baby we lost at 12 weeks in May … you can see it here:

I know how you feel. I too lost one and he or she is in heaven as well. As my aunt told me hug your other little one(s) all the time and tears are ok. my thoughts are with you and yours as you heal.
I stumbled on your blog today and I just couldn't help but say something. We lost our baby in March of 2010. I was 26wks pregnant. I know exactly how you are feeling and my heart breaks for you. I can promise that you will get through it. God will carry you through. Just lean of him. It's ok not to be strong and it's ok to feel whatever you need to feel. God loves you and he has a plan. Hang in there, you will get through.
With over 300 comments on this one post, I hesitate to even add mine to the list. I came to visit after seeing you on LMM's facebook page. The tab entitled "Loss and heartache" caught my eye. I have walked in your shoes. My husband and I lost two sweet babies after giving birth to our daughter. People so often don't understand unless they have been there. I got a lot of "Well, you still have Lydia" and "You'll be fine" and "Just be happy that you have a daughter already. So many people don't ever have any children". People have good intentions, but they can often be very insensitive to the pain. Cry, scream, hug your babies, hug your hubby, cry together, pray, do whatever you need to do for you. God was the only thing that got me through. There is a peace that passes all understanding in God. I will keep you in my prayers. Take care.
Oh wow Casey, I am So sorry for your loss. I feel your pain. I have had 2 miscarriages. And my heart still hurts for my babies, when I think about them, I miss them, and I wonder about who they would be today. I know they are happy and safe in Heaven, and I have come to accept that. But every once in a while I still shed some tears for them. I wish I could give you big hugs! You and your precious family will be in my prayers.

I am so sorry for your loss, and as hard as it is to hear this, God has a plan for you, your family, and the sweet baby that was lost. Remember that God has a plan, even if you arent sure exactly what it is yet! Please let me know if you or your family need anything! 🙂
You guys are in my prayers!
Dear Casey,
I found out about your loss from your post on Shine. Please let me say I am so sorry and I absolutely know your pain. My husband and I lost our first baby at 13 weeks…and it was the most painful of experiences. God has blessed us with two beautiful children (a girl and a boy) but I still think of my angel that I never got the baby I still dream of and can't wait to meet in the presence of my Heavenly Father. Praying for your healing and comfort in the coming weeks and months. That you are surrounded by love and grace. Blessings sweet girl.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this time…<3
I haven't been around a computer for a while now, and just saw your sad news. I've cried many a tear for you tonight as I can only imagine a small piece of the of your sadness. I wish I had words of comfort, but I'm not sure what I could say.
I do, however, wish I could jump in the car this very moment and drive to Texas to give you a huge hug. Mama heart to mama heart, friend to friend, sister to sister.
But for now, I send you love and prayers from way up north, hoping that they be a small seed of joy.
All my love to you, your hubs and your 3 sweet babies.
i somehow missed this post but i didn't want to miss the chance to tell you that you and your family are in my prayers. take comfort in God's love, and that you WILL meet your gorgeous baby again someday. now you just have an extra little angel to watch over all of you. i'm so, so sorry for your loss.
Casey, my heart breaks for you and your family. I lost our baby at 11 wks, just over a month ago. Reading your post brought me to tears once again, reliving the pain we went through. As you little one was, our baby was so precious to us. We are sad we couldn't meet them in this lifetime. My hearts aches for another baby and I hope you too will be able to have another also! Our God is a good God!
HUGS!

I stumbled on this post looking for a post on some birthday party ideas I saw a while ago. I am a brand new follower of this blog.
I am crying for you right now. I have gone through this pain and would not wish this on anybody. I will be praying for you and your family that God puts his arms around you and that you feel Him there.
Thanks for writing about this. I couldn't when it happened to me until several months later. But I wrote about it here. http://amandaconley.blogspot.com/2010/07/what-its-like-to-be-thrown-for-loop.html
Don't read it if it's too soon. I still find myself feeling really vulnerable about writing stuff online… and I don't want to make you sad or anything. But I just want you to know that I completely relate.
