Got my fingers, toes, arms, legs and eyes crossed for your friend and her little bubba!! Please stay in there safe and warm for a little while longer, little baby - your mummy wants you to be okay!!

Thats wonderful to read!!! Sending tonnes of sticky vibes & keeping your friend & her baby in my prayers. Hoping bub stays put for another few months

& your friend is blessed with a healthy baby in her arms when the time comes.
You're being a wonderful friend, as others have said, please dont under-estimate how important your friendship is to her, you two have a special bond due to being able to understand each others struggles through TTC. Alot of people just dont understand because they've never had to experience it.

All my thoughts and prayers are with your friend SG. So glad to hear the contractions have stopped, and bubs is staying put for now.

You are a great friend, so dont you ever doubt that for a moment. I would give anything to have a friend as caring and compassionate as you

I had stayed away from this thread, because it's a bit close to me at the moment, but had a look at the last few posts, and then had to go back.

Sending positive thoughts that bub hangs in there until he grows bigger.

take care,

Kate

that the little fella keeps going strong and cooks for much much longer.

to you and your friend

I hope he hangs in there... how emotionally draining for his parents and family.

**Jas** · December 3rd, 2009, 11:09 AM

That is wonderful beyond words! I am so happy for your friend! I will continue praying for your friend, baby and family and the medical professionals surrounding her.

This is good news SG...

If the baby can stay inutero for another 2 weeks the baby statistically has a 40% chance of survival (that is based on stats at the RBWH Qld). Each week the stats increase greatly. So let's all hope and pray that her body can hang on a while to this precious little boy.

Her decision to let her son go if he is born soon is a Courageous and painful one. I understand why she has chosen that & I am in awe of her strength.

I wish I could just squeeze her hand for her & tell her we are all praying for her. She is going through an unspeakably challenging time.
