Your story (I am so so...Wow, I am just blown away. Your story (I am so sorry for the loss of your baby), the Lane family story (I am so sorry for the loss of your babies and your mother). I needed the comfort tonight of women that have "traveled the road". We lost a baby at 8 weeks in Dec 08 and thought we were "safe" this past fall/winter of 09 on the next pregnancy. However, at the 12 week appt (12/29/09)we found out our baby had died. I was 12 weeks 2 days and the baby was 12 weeks 1 day. Since I am of "advanced maternal age" (aka old!!) they sent the baby for genetic testing and to determine gender. We found out our baby was normal and was a sweet little boy. I now watch my two boys (6 and 3) play and I just sit and ponder what the third boy would have been like. Sometimes I can almost feel his soft hair as I picture rubbing my chin against his sweet, little head and can almost smell his fresh out of the bath skin. I know I will hold him (and his sibling) someday... Thanks ladies for sharing your precious stories. It is hard but with God's amazing and tender care we make it thru...<br /><br />PS Linda Maus sent me here and I am so glad she did...Lori Eakernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6479773871921382128.post-49154490496027825322009-12-17T09:10:59.973-06:002009-12-17T09:10:59.973-06:00That was a great tip!! I think sometimes we forget...That was a great tip!! I think sometimes we forget that our kids grow-up way to fast and that someday we will have all of the alone time in the world :)<br /><br />I found you through Kelly's Corner. I LOVE the fact you are doing this book. 6 years ago when our life begin to change forever it would have been nice to have something like this out there.<br /><br />Here is the quick review. Got pregnant on our own with a little girl, Jenni Lynn, found out at 24 weeks she had a very rare genetic disease had her her at 26 weeks lived a few moments and returned to our God. <br /><br />Used clomid and got pregnant again all was well at a 6 week and 8 week ultrasound, at the 12 week no heartbeat. Had a D&C woke-up from it to find my mother had been killed in a car accident while coming to be with us.<br /><br />7 month of trying told fallopian tubes had been destroyed by an infection after D&C only choice In-Vitro. Did in-vitro got pregnant with twins, all was well until 14 weeks and they could not control my bleeding and I lost them. Spent a few days in the hospital and recieved two blood transfusions.<br /><br />Used frozen embryo's got pregnant with our son. The pregnancy was a very rocky road and almost lost him multiple times. After eight weeks of complete bed rest and in and out of hospital, we had an emergency c-section and he joined our family.<br /><br />When our son was 20 months we decided to try one more time. We used our frzen blastocysts and got pregnant with twins. At 10 weeks I was put on bedrest and every pregnancy complication you could get we had. We spent many days and weeks in the hospital and at 35 weeks we had them in another emergency c-section. We found out that one of our daughters has some genetic issues and that has provided some additional challenges but they have blessed our lives in so many way.<br /><br />I am glad that you have taken the challenge to write this beautiful book for so many of us out there who have, are or will struggle with bringing their baby into this world.<br /><br />Thank you,<br /><br />Wendi <br /><br />P.S.
