Pregnancy and family

It’s been a minute

August 31, 2021 kylardavisLeave a comment

Tonight was one of those “scroll through every picture you’ve ever taken of your kids, crawl in bed with them once they’re asleep, and go back and read the blog you haven’t updated in THREE YEARS” kind of nights. Time is weird, babies and toddlers are hard, life is busy, and instagram is easier than… Continue reading It’s been a minute

Happy birthday girls

April 18, 2018 kylardavisLeave a comment

Happy birthday to Madeline and Holland! Time seemed to stand still the day and months after they were born but has been flying by ever since. Life is busy, and very full. Sweet baby Spencer was born 1 year and 3 days after we lost our girls and this first year of his life has… Continue reading Happy birthday girls

1 year

April 18, 2017 kylardavis2 Comments

1 year ago today, just shy of 24 weeks into the pregnancy, our little girls made their entrance into the world. Sweet Madeline was already gone when she arrived but the chance to finally hold her and say goodbye was incredibly special. Holland lived for just a few hours and we were lucky that she… Continue reading 1 year

Spring

March 27, 2017March 28, 2017 kylardavisLeave a comment

Exactly one year ago today we celebrated Easter in the hospital. Spring had sprung and Campbell bounced into the hospital room wearing a Cinderella dress and looking forward to a lunch date with Daddy at McDonald’s.  Looking back it seems so strange to think of that as happy and hopeful day, but that’s how I… Continue reading Spring

It feels like snow

December 6, 2016December 12, 2016 kylardavis1 Comment

The big thing I’ve learned about Parenthood is that when they say it all goes by too fast, they definitely aren’t kidding. While sometimes it seems like we’re always looking forward to and capturing the big milestones (first bite of food, first day of school, first date), those are really not the moments you remember.… Continue reading It feels like snow

Remembrance

October 15, 2016October 15, 2016 kylardavisLeave a comment

October 15 is Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Day.  I think of Madeline and Holland every single day…but today I hope that others will remember them too, and all the other babies whose lives ended too soon.  Thank you to my friend who shared this quote with me. If you know someone who has lost… Continue reading Remembrance

Happy birthday big sister!

June 10, 2016October 16, 2016 kylardavisLeave a comment

My daughter turned 3 on Tuesday. I’ve spent the past 4 weeks or so planning a birthday party I didn’t plan on having. We’d anticipated one of three scenarios for her birthday: a miserably pregnant & immobile mother in the June heat, hospitalization at 30 weeks, or babies in the NICU that would require our… Continue reading Happy birthday big sister!

Mother’s Day

May 10, 2016October 16, 2016 kylardavis1 Comment

It’s been 3 weeks and 1 day since I delivered and said goodbye to Madeline and Holland. Three weeks of emotional turmoil. Three weeks of physical changes. Three weeks of figuring out how to go forward.  Each week that passes brings us to another pregnancy milestone that should be cause for celebration but instead just… Continue reading Mother’s Day

Tiny heartbreaks

April 17, 2016October 16, 2016 kylardavisLeave a comment

Heartbroken is the word Ryan has used to describe the feeling of losing “Baby A” and I haven’t been able to find anything else that is more accurate. The first few days I went back and forth between overwhelming grief and a somewhat pathetic hope that maybe there had been some mistake and she would… Continue reading Tiny heartbreaks
