Rainbow Babies

I am 17wks 2days pregnant with my rainbow baby. (Pregnancy after a loss) I found out yesterday that I'm having another boy. I'm so excited. I'm definitely taking it easy this time. Anyone else having a rainbow baby?

I've never heard that term either. I'm pregnant with my rainbow baby as well. I'm 13.5 weeks now and so happy, I had a missed miscarriage at 12.3 weeks on October 29 had a d&c and it was one of the toughest days I've had. So happy that im pregnant again definitely been taking it easy this time around :)

22w 4days with mine... Such a beautiful metaphor, the rainbow after a storm. I only heard about it last week when my sister told me my little girl is a rainbow baby. I'm sure we've all been through some pretty stormy losses!

I'm 15wks with my rainbow baby and so in love with it already <3 we lost a baby at 12wks December 31,2012 and one before that in September. We have literally gotten to watch this one grow since 6wks having ultrasounds every 2wks. Truly amazing :)
