new and sad

[dd0207]

I'm so sorry for your losses and congratulations on your new pregnancy. You have been through such a rough time and I pray that all goes well and you get through this pregnancy safe and sound with a beautiful bub to take home at the end.

Sounds like your OB is keeping a very close eye on you which is great. My old OB was on holidays when I went into labour so his partner from the Hills District delivered my son. Wonder if it's the same OB you're seeing? Are we at liberty to say? Wow you went into labour very quickly and I thought I was quick - 2 hours for me. It must have been so shocking for you and my heart goes out to you (infact I'm in tears right now). My old OB said the same - the fact that my labour was so short means it will probably be the same for every pregnancy so I will definitely need a stitch too.

Did your cycle get out of whack after losing Luke? I have had 2 normal periods since losing my angel and DH and I want to TTC this month but I think my cycle is totally off the planet this month. I think I may have ovulated last weekend which is a week earlier than expected (I haven't been using OPKs, I only noticed EWCM). So we jumped right in but I bled very heavily afterwards and am still spotting since. I made an appt to see my OB tomorrow to make sure nothing is wrong. I'm so concerned there may be some underlying damage from the infection I had or the 2 curettes I had to have.

As for Sids & Kids - I called them the week I lost my angel and "no-one experienced enough" was there to talk to me. So I left my details and didn't get a call back for over a week! They were very apologetic but I was still very disappointed. I may still consider going to a group sessions to meet others that have experienced this unbelievable tragedy.

I'm so happy you responded to me and shared your story. I give you the warmest hugs and please keep me posted on your pregnancy and how you go with the stitch. My prayers and thoughts are with you.
