I just joined the group and wanted to introduce myself and say
hello. A little about me: Married to Robert for 8 years, no living
children YET, we lost our little girl on July 30, 2007 to trisomy 18
(rare chromosome disorder). I delivered her still at 37 weeks and
new that her chances of living were not good after an amnio test at
20 weeks. I just found out that I am pregnant last week and will be
6 weeks this friday according TMP.
I have to tell you that I am scared to death! I have not had any of
the usual preg signs this time and that makes me nervous. I know
that all pregnancies are different. I know it is strange but I have
actually prayed for symptoms.
I go to the doctor tuesday and they will do an US. I pray to see a
heartbeat! I know that this pregnancy can be a healing one for me.
This past mothers day was very difficult but I had numerous
blessings as well. Lots of cards of people thinking of me and which
were pleasant surprises. On Sunday my church dedicated the memorial
garden for families who have lost a child or infant at whatever
stage of pregnancy, this has been in the works for 8 years but they
were inspired to complete it after my journey with Lilly. What a
huge honor for us!
I hope to get to know you all and walk through this with you. I know
you know my daily struggles and in the end all we really want is a
healthy baby.
