How we dealt with Miscarriage.

Having a miscarriage is hard, its even more hard on a freshly married couple. 
We lost our first baby in mid April 2013 I was devastated. I wondered why God would give me a baby for only 8 short weeks. Why did he even allow me to get pregnant and find out i was pregnant if he was just going to take my baby way from me before i could even hear his or her heat beat. 
On the morning i lost the baby, I woke up, went to the restroom like most people do first thing in the morning. I noticed a little blood so I called Dustin in the bath room. He told me go ahead and take a shower and he would call my Dr office that i had not been to yet because i had not even had my first appointment. The nurse (Lindsey) told Dustin to tell me to come in right away. All the way to the Dr office i was reading on my phone what could cause you to bleed in your first trimester. Of course i was only thinking miscarriage in the back of my mind but my heart kept telling me it could be anything. So that 15 minute wait in the waiting room seemed like an hour as i was still reading stuff on my phone, Dustin told me to stop. 
The nurse called us back and did an ultrasound and there was no heart beat or baby i had already passed the baby. And right then and there i had a melt down, just like that the baby was gone. I sat in the ultrasound room for what seemed like forever trying to gather myself before walking back out to get lab work done to make 100% sure i did not need a DNC. I sat in the chairs waiting for lab work and cried and cried and cried. I was so excited to be having a baby that was very unexpected, I cried when i found out i was pregnant because i was so nervous, but i was thankful that God trusted me enough to carry a baby i had not even planned for. 
Then all in the blink of an eye God took the baby. I was heart broken but i am a pretty strong person. As days went by i would cry to Dustin about the baby. As weeks went by i kept telling myself this is God's plan not mine.
