Birth Encouragement

These quotes and verses serve to bring encouragement to you as you prepare for the birth of your baby.  Because pregnancy loss is still birth, these affirmations and encouragements are borrowed from childbirth websites (sources at end) and in fact are more fitting here than anywhere else.
