I know this is a personal decision but I'd like some opinions on the matter for reference. We had a miscarriage in September and while it was devastating and I still haven't gotten over it completely, part of me is relieved. The idea of having a newborn and dealing with the news of his diagnosis sounds overwhelming.… read more
