Our Christmas was magical. Tom and I sent baby announcements to all our friends and family. Everything was perfect.

Until…

One morning I woke with stabbing pain in my belly, blood over the bed. We went to the ER. I gave birth to a still born, a son.

One night, when Tom was sleeping, I grabbed his phone to look through the photos the hospital had taken. They were tasteful last photos of us with our tiny little boy. Tom had a text message from a woman. I began to click through them.

One read, “We are having a boy!”
