  • Our baby in heaven 👼 You touched our lives immensely during the short yet sweet time you were growing with us. We treasure & mourn the daydreams of what our life would of looked like together. We are so grateful to God for covering us with an indescribable softness during this terrible time. We are so grateful to our family & community who have celebrated & wept alongside us. The love of Jesus has been so tangibly felt through the people who surround us.
    At the beginning of the month, we experienced a missed miscarriage. We went in for our 10 week appointment & there was no heartbeat found. My body was holding on to our baby. I didn’t experience any symptoms of loss, so it was a complete shock. We have been working on mentally & physically healing ever since.
    I am so grateful for my love, who despite his own pain, has endlessly showered me with tenderness & care. Throughout our 11 years together, nothing has been more intimate & brought us closer together. 💛
    To all the women that have gone through this before me, your stories, strength, & solace have provided comfort & inspiration. I’m in awe of you.
    Spoken & unspoken, I know how painfully common this is.
    We have immensely heavy hearts but are hopeful for the joy that is yet to come. To our first baby, we will adore you forever. Until we meet again. 🕊️

    I’m so sorry for your loss. I had a missed miscarriage last spring, I didn’t even know it was possible. But the Lord is good, and I’m currently driving to church with my rainbow baby babbling in the back seat. I pray the Lord will bless you with a healthy pregnancy soon and you have peace and trust in His timing until then.

      @@eramirezsw I am so sorry for your loss. Pregnancy after a loss can be scary, and I know for me especially passing the due date pregnant with another child caused a lot of mixed emotions. I remember telling my husband that it’s hard to grieve my first baby when I know with the overlap in pregnancy timelines, I could never have had both of my babies. But there’s also so much joy because of the hope we have in Christ. My sister died in a car accident a week after my baby shower, and in that grief it comforted me to not only imagine them both with Christ, but to imagine them all together. Every time I hear of another baby lost or another death, I just add them to my mental family portrait in heaven, and imagine this large extended family we all have waiting for us. My sister was an infant daycare worker, and I like to imagine her watching over all the little angel babies. 💕

    My heart breaks for you and your husband Allison 💔 My sister lost her first born 2 hours after giving birth. It truly is something that marks you forever. One quote someone sent me that helped me see things in a new light is this one…
    “Grief never ends. But it changes. It’s a passage, not a place to stay. Grief is not a sign of weakness nor a lack of faith. It is the price of love.”
    It’s that last sentence that gets me “it’s is the price of love” 💕sending you so much love and comfort through this time 🙏🏽

    Dear Allison, our first baby also ended up in miscarriage, and it was so hard and sad. After that, God gave us 4 beautiful and healthy children… I keep thinking about how “God gives and takes away…” trust in the Lord and he will take care of you. ❤️ Thank you for sharing your heart with us.

    Sweet Allison… I broke into ugly tears the second I saw the notification for this video. I know this pain. You are so special to our family. You are a beautiful source of connection for myself and my 16 year old daughter. She was 5 years old when we lost our second baby. She remembers. Your story is continually being written and I unfortunately know how hard it is to know this chapter will always exist. Allison, you are a beautiful example of how to draw close to God when you are experiencing loss. I am praying for your ability to celebrate with others. I was graciously given the mercy to do so. As I watched others welcome their babies, I remembered that I would never want them to experience the loss of a baby. I attended those baby showers and birthdays so thankful that their story did not include this chapter. I am praying for your medical decisions ahead, for your heart as you walk into the next pregnancy, and for God to gracious and merciful to you and Brandon. Although this community is a beuatiful one, I am praying for women to physically come alongside of you who have experienced this and can walk with you through the pain. Thank you for sharing your story.

    Sweet Allison, it breaks my heart to watch this video! I had two miscarriages before I went on to have my kids (now 10 and 7 years old). Miscarriage is so common, and yet no one ever talks about it! I so appreciate your transparency about your experience, and I'm sure this video will be a balm to so many! I'm praying that you won't have to have a DNC, and that you will feel God's peace and presence. "Weeping may stay overnight, but there is joy in the morning." Psalm 30:5

    Allison, you didn’t have to share your painful experience, but we, your TH-cam community, appreciate your transparency. It’s not an easy thing to go through, a lost of a child you wanted to be part of your family. As you can tell many women go through it and it does help to know we are not alone in this experience. I too had a miscarriage at 10wks. Our son was super excited to get a sibling only to find out it wasn’t meant to be. Forward 21yrs, he remains an only child. It was hard at first bc he really wanted a sibling. But time does heal broken hearts. My husband and I are grateful to God for our son. In his perfect timing, you and Brandon will get to grow your family again. Take this time to heal, find the courage to try again when you are ready and trust in the Lord. He will not forsake you but bless you and Brandon and Palmer too. Condolences to you both. ❤

    We ended up pregnant again soon after, and our son will be 29 next weekend. We had 3 children with no problems after, so try not to be fearful. God will help you get through this. Love and prayers ❤

    So sorry to learn this news. My mother had multiple pregnancy losses and after her first, she hated hearing “things happen for a reason.” The only thing that helped her was being told that she would never get over it (how can you?) but that she would learn to get used to the loss. My mom is 72 now but she’s never forgotten all the little lives that she carried no matter how short.

    Allison, I don’t know if you’re going to see this comment and I’m at a loss for words. My husband and I both cried when we saw your post on Instagram, you feel like a best friend to me because I have watched you for so many years. I’ve dreamt about being pregnant along side you (I tagged you in my new years vision board where there’s a section about being a mom), I just feel so much love in my heart for you. I have never cried like this over a loss from a creator, and I think it’s because I truly hold you as a sister in Christ. And as your sister I just feel so deeply sorry for you and Brandon and wish I could send you something, do something for you, or literally any small act to bring you even a slice of joy.
    You are a person who brings forth so much life. You bring life in the words you speak. The videos you make. The creative ideas you share. The small moments you beautifully capture and document. Your beautiful garden, your delicious recipes, and your cozy home are all evidences of the life you create. I know this is only the beginning of the story for your family. Whenever, and if ever, you decide to try again, I know that life is in your future 💛.

    I’m so sorry Allison. We also found out in early August that we were pregnant and at our 10 week ultrasound got the news that there was no heartbeat. Confirmed again a week later and then the process of losing our baby started. I had never even heard of a missed miscarriage before that. Also trying to find joy and hope through this process. I cried with you watching this. Sending love and so many prayers to you guys as the process continues. ❤ Please if you have any questions about what might be next don’t hesitate to ask your close friends that have gone through it or me. I am happy to chat with you. It was a very unknown process and I had no idea what was coming next.

    Allison and Brandon, I am truly sorry for your loss. Never lose faith, I went through 4 miscarriages and luckily pregnancy number 5 became my beautiful daughter who is now 13. I remember the journey of the joys and then devastating ultrasounds when there was no heartbeat. I had 3 natural miscarriages at home and one through the surgery process. The surgery process was easier for me both physically and emotionally. Also with the surgery at the hospital they were able to test the fetus to give more answers.

    Thank you for sharing. You are not alone. I experienced 3 missed miscarriages all between 7-9 weeks pregnant over a year and a half time period. It was by far the hardest time of my life. Ask your doctor, but what finally helped me was getting on *progesterone* immediately once I found out I was pregnant….I wish I would have done that after my first loss, but I didn’t know and figured it was a one off. The second time it happened, I started to think ok maybe something is wrong…
    Please ask your doctor! I wish someone would have shared this info with me. I am sitting here now with my 9 week old rainbow baby on my chest and the moment she was born was the happiest of my life. All the heartache was so worth it, and I see the reason for Gods timing now. It is just hard to see it when you are going through it.
    Praying for you. Sending so much love.

    Allison, my heart truly breaks with you, I cried watching this, and the grief of losing your first baby is like no other. You are not alone. And it’s not your fault. Those words brought me such great comfort while we grieved our first baby last year around this time. The deepest part of my heart aches for you ❤️‍🩹
    Something that brought me a lot of comfort is that your baby will always be with you, even in miscarriage their little cells stay inside of you even after they’ve left for heaven & I thought how special of God to do that.
    I pray you feel upheld by the tears we are weeping alongside of you. And just know however you feel moving forward with grief and joy - there is endless grace to feel whatever you feel. May our Good Shepherd comfort & protect your hearts as you walk through the valley. 💔 All my love Allison ❤️‍🩹

I just recently started watching your videos, but when you mentioned having a time of grief in your last update, I knew deep down right away that you had lost a baby. I can't explain how, I just knew. I hope that you find peace. Will be praying for healing.

    Allison, I just want you to know as a long time sub, I am praying for you and so sorry for losing this precious life from God. My husband and I lost our first baby too, much of what you shared was exactly how we felt. Crying and holding one another and it bringing our marriage so much closer. Nothing prepared you for that kind of anguish.
    Now we have a 17 month old baby boy, and pregnant with another baby. It was so hard being pregnant again after the miscarriage, but it forced me to trust in my Savior Jesus so much more, and really lean into my faith that God is sovereign, He is in full control of life and death, and has numbered our days. That gives us hope as believers that death is not the end! We will see these precious babies in eternity, and I want to encourage you that the Lord very well could give you a healthy baby in the future, this is my prayer for you and for God’s peace to strengthen and encourage you, and for God to use this suffering for His glory and your good (Romans 8:28, for we know that all things work together for the good of those who are called according to Gods purposes)
    Much love my sister ❤️❤️❤️

    I am so sorry for what you are going through. I also had a miscarriage early in a pregnancy many years ago and I remember how heartbreaking it was. It hurts so badly.
    My next pregnancy went to term and now my grown son has 3 kids of his own. I can't imagine life without these exact people I was destined to have as a child and grandchildren. None of them would have existed if my previous baby had been born. But still I wonder even after all these years, what would that child have been like.

    I found your channel through Michelle Reed, so just hearing your story. I experienced the same thing- same situation, timing etc. It still hurts, it always will- even after two kids since. So happy for you that you are expecting your rainbow baby ❤

    Allison, I'm so very sorry. I also experienced a miscarriage at 10 weeks, and it was the deepest heartache imaginable. Your baby will always have a special place in your heart.
    I pray you take solace, as I do, in that the baby is safe with our Lord in heaven, watching over you. And you will reunite one day. Hugs to you 💕

    Allison, my heart and prayers go out to you and your family. I had a miscarriage in 2021 and it was the most difficult thing that my husband and I have ever been through. I think its so sweet that you’re honoring your baby by doing something special in your garden. Its true…its not your fault and try to remember that throughout your grieving process. I had to constantly tell myself that it wasn’t the food I ate, or vitamins I took, or anything…these things are unexplained. There is a poem “Wait”, by Russell Kelfer that helped me a lot during my grieving process. Maybe it can be a source of healing for you too. Sending you all a big hug and prayers of healing and continued support from those around you ❤️

    😢 I’m just crying so hard because it just brought back memories of my miscarriage… The healing process is a roller coaster for sure.. However, 4 years later I was blessed with a beautiful baby boy, which is now 18 years old ❤ GOD is good because we never know why but, his plans for us is something totally different. Allison and Brandon sorry for your loss! GOD will prevail 💐 Blessings to you both 🙏

    I am so sorry for your and Brandon's loss. 36 years ago our first baby (son) was a stillborn and it was like hitting a brickwall. My husband was a Marine and i never saw him cry till that moment. Was like hitting brick wall. My faith and family/friends helped us through it! Stay in faith. Again so sorry in my thoughts and prayers!!💔🙏

    Thank you so for sharing your story. Just experienced a missed miscarriage with our first pregnancy, I always knew it’s common and possible, but didn’t think it would happen to us. It’s so hard to tell all our family too, after seeing their excitement when we first shared our news.
    Our time will come though!

    My daughter and her fiancée have been having fertility struggles for years. They underwent 2 IVF cycles. Both of which resulted in pregnancy and both were lost soon after. After some soul searching they started at a new clinic. Before they had another IVF, they had a miracle happen and got pregnant naturally! She is now 22 weeks and we are all over the moon for this new rainbow baby boy to come in February. ❤ Don’t give up hope and continue to have faith that your time will come! Blessings to you!

    As soon as you posted that you were going through a hard time in the last video, I just had a second sense that this was what it was. I also miscarried my first pregnancy, baby was due in March, at roughly 8 weeks. It’s so so devastating and I’ll be praying for you to heal and have strength and peace of mind at this time ❤ hopefully we both get our rainbow babies soon! Btw you are one of the only non Jewish TH-camrs that I watch who posted about what’s been happening in Israel, and the fact that you are going through such a hard time and were still able to make that post really means SO much to me as a Jewish long time viewer of yours. You’re the best and I’m sending you so much love and strength in this time

  • @Moos23
    @Moos23 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

    Im so sorry! Im so glad that you have the support you need to get you through this and not letting it affect your hope. From someone who had 2 missed miscarriages, I now have two wonderful babies and let me tell you this “experience” will change you and happen for a reason. I didnt understand why me when it happened but after becoming a mom, it all made perfect sense as to why i miscarried. I would not have been 100000% grateful for being pregnant or becoming a mom if i didnt miscarry, i wouldnt have cherish those moments as much, i wouldnt have been this patience with my babies, i wouldnt have been this strong for my babies during difficult motherhood times. But those micarriages remind me of how tough i am, how much i wanted those babies and how grateful i am for those babies during the tough times. It allows me to pause time and really enjoy my babies although there are so much household work to be done etc

Please know that a lot of people love and care about you. I know that there are hard times ahead. Be gentle with yourself and know that you can lean on your loved ones. I wish I could send you more support than just this comment. I’ll be thinking and praying for you. And know the perfect time will come and that you will be a mama someday soon.

    Allison, you are not alone we as women that have gone through what you are now going through feel your valid pain… It’s something that you will remember for the rest of your life time and that’s a reminder that the joy and excitement and pain loss of your and Brandon’s child was REAL! One of the many blessings out of this situation is knowing you can get pregnant… Please find comfort in that if anything, know that your RAINBOW BABY(IES) are coming, I believe it and I know that all the sweet women leaving comments and your friends and family believe it as well… Pray that when the LORD does bless you guys with another baby that your excitement and joy will still be exactly that, don’t let the enemy rob you of that with doubts/fear because of the loss of this baby because he’s definitely good at doing that… GOD IS GOOD AND HE IS FAITHFUL!!! Take your time healing and praying and comforting each other and being encouraged with knowing GOD OUR FATHER IN HEAVEN is collecting all of your sweet tears and in your due season will bless you with new tears from the joy/excitement of knowing your pregnant again!!! We love you and we are with you and praying for you… 😘😘

    Writing you this with my 5 week old rainbow baby in my arms. I experienced a miscarriage of our first baby around the same gestation as you on Thanksgiving Day last year. This experience, although challenging and heartbreaking, will change you, your husband and your relationship for the better. My husband and I have been together for over 8 years and we still comment on how our miscarriage brought us closer than anything else we had experienced. I pray you find solace in knowing that with the Lord’s blessing your womb will experience love, light, joy and life again. I pray in this time you find moments to nourish both your body and soul and grow through this with all the love and support you both deserve.

  • @madisonhenien7062

    I’ve been following you for years, and experienced back to back miscarriages September and November of 2021. Watching your videos is one of the things that helped me see the beauty of the small things in life and how God can bring comfort and beauty in every season through that time. We just threw our miracle baby girls 1st birthday party last month and I can declare from the mountaintops that God is GOOD and He is FAITHFUL. Even in the waiting. Even in the confusion. Even in the numbness. One of my favorite quotes I heard was “grief is love that never got the chance to be shown.” And that really helped me process that what I was experiencing was that I never got the chance to show love to that baby. So what you’re saying about honoring that baby really will help you through the grief. I also wrote a letter to our babies, and dried some flowers from that time that are now in my baby’s nursery! I also have a bracelet with their heavenly birthday engraved on it and I keep it on always! Praying for you and your family.

    Dear Allison,
    As a women that is now into my early 40’s I can tell you that miscarriage is something that needs to be talked about much more. I myself have had 5 miscarriages, 2 of them were missed miscarriages. One I had to have a DNC, and the last one was at the end of 2020 and I was not able to have a DNC because of the pandemic, which was a traumatic experience being isolated at home and having to pass everything naturally at home. At 32 I had a pregnancy that ended in neonatal death, my first baby was born at 20 weeks and because her lungs were not developed enough, she passed in my arms after I delivered her. Please keep that hope and your eyes to God! His plan and grace is sufficient. After the loss of my daughter and many miscarriages in between, I finally had my son, who just turned 9 last week. I was still brave and wanted to add to our family after him, but kept having miscarriages, so our last attempt was the one in 2020 at the age of 40. I gave it my best for 8 years, and was blessed with one child earth side and I am so grateful to be able to experience motherhood. I cried with you because I feel that deep pain as understand exactly how you feel. I’ll be praying for your family for peace, hope and understanding. God Bless you!
