Guest guest Posted February 14, 2001 Report Share Posted February 14, 2001 Hi Benita, you may not know me since I barely post here my name is Roxy and I just wanted to express my sincerest condolences for both you & your sister for her loss. It's a very sad thing that happened but you must trust that the baby is now with GOD and in a happy place. With that said I do hope your ok and that she is also getting through this one day at a time knowing that she is not alone in this. -- In OSSG-pregnant@y..., Benita Pautz <bpautz@l...> wrote: > I just found out yesterday that my sister lost her baby and I am so sad.

Guest guest Posted February 15, 2001 Report Share Posted February 15, 2001 Benita there is nothing wrong with crying.........let it out......holding it in is what hurts you! teresa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 17, 2001 Report Share Posted February 17, 2001 benita i have seen a perinatologist/high risk dr my whole time. really, its just like a regular dr, you will never know the difference, except they are better equiped to help you if you need it. if i were you i would ask or suggest they do u/s once per month to check on fetal growth. you dont want months passing and not knowing if your baby has stopped growing or something is wrong. i get one per month (i got prego 4 mos post op) and the baby is right on target for size. they mentioned that they might end up taking the baby out early if he stopped growing (intrauterine growth retardation-IUGR) you can mention it to your dr so maybe they will do them for you too. but the baby is growing big still and he is due in march. im 34 wks now and just hoping he keeps growing since i have never gained any weight this whole pregnancy. good luck and keep us posted. teresa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 17, 2001 Report Share Posted February 17, 2001 Roxy, Thanks so much. It's amazing how time does make it better. It's only been a few days and by no means are we over it but at least I'm not crying every 2 minutes now. I spoke to my sister yesterday and I'm going to go see her today and they are doing well. They know that it was God's will and are very accepting of it. They are going to try again as soon as the doctor clears them. It may sound weird but I was figuring out the time period the other day and I realized at about the same time her baby's heart stopped beating was when I was conceiving. I think that God knew hers would not be healthy so that's why I got pregnant so fast. I have to hold on to some thing, and this has been comforting to me. I had an appt with the nurse yesterday and filled out all my paperwork and had blood drawn, etc. I have my first dr. appt on the 28th. They said I am 6 weeks pregnant. They said I was a high-risk so I will be seeing a perinatologist, I think that was what they called him. It was kind of scary being told I was high risk but it is just becuase of the surgery and now I'll get extra special attention! Thanks for your post!

Guest guest Posted February 20, 2001 Report Share Posted February 20, 2001 oh my gosh, i am sorry to hear that. take care of yourself too. julie sad news I just found out yesterday that my sister lost her baby and I am so sad. I don't know what to do for her. It's actually not making me feel like I'm going to lose mine, but I am just filled with this overwhelming sadness. This was her first also and we were going to be pregnant together (she was 2 months ahead of me), and both be pregnant in my other sisters wedding. The baby's heart stopped beating at 12 weeks, 3 days and the thumb was still in the mouth on the ultra sound. She goes in tomorrow for a D & C. I know that she will have babies in the future, but I am just trying to grieve the loss of this one. She is actually taking it better than me and saying it was God's will and the baby would not have been healthy. Her husband wrote the most heart wrenching email to everybody. Today is a new day and I hope it gets better. Wish me luck, and keep us in your prayers Benita > > Children are a reward from the Lord.
