Shocked & devastated


Recommended Posts

We went for an ultrasound on Monday, at 12 weeks. We knew something wasn't right and then the doctor said there was "no cardiac activity." We were stunned. It didn't make us feel any better when he said how rare it is to lose a baby after "cardiac activity" is detected. We saw the heart beat at an 8 week u/s. (I am a high risk OB candidate and have frequent u/s, in case any are wondering why we would have had so many so early.)

 

We chose to to miscarry at home, not at the hospital, no D&C. I passed the baby last night and we buried our wee angel this morning, beneath a very protective tree in our back yard.

 

Our oldest was born at 6:36 am on June 21st, 1994. He is 18 today. We chose to bury our lost one at 6:36 am this morning.

 

Now to proceed with this new reality, this incredible heartbreak.

I'm so very sorry. This is so sad. May your little "angel" be waiting for you and see you first when you step over to the other side someday.

 

I have sibs waiting for me that I never knew...
