Thinking of you this morning Lisa xo

lisaren

Since I'm
Not having contractions the placenta is not in a good spot so may not be able to do cvs. We looked at baby and oh she's so precious. I really think it's a girl. She was stretching her legs. The hygroma is big. Very big. From the top of the head down to the butt. Plus her abdomen is swollen with fluid. Edema. Hygromas this large don't end well. The increase fluids on body, lungs and heart can eventually cause the baby to pass. I'm waiting to see if the contractions -Braxton hicks to me, push the placenta up.
Also no hydrops.

Good Luck!!

You're in my thoughts and prayers today, Lisa.

That's a little disappointing. But at least you got to see her are you still there, waiting to see if you get some Braxton hicks?

I am so, so sorry that you're dealing with this.  It's just not fair.  Big ((hugs)) to you and your family.

Lots of thoughts for you.

Autumnsnow

So sorry that it's that big.  At least you got to see her.  Are they waiting for you to have Braxton Hicks today?

Kristy774

Praying for you.

@lisaren no hydrops is a really good sign!!!! Lots of hygromas can self resolve with no hydrops. If they can't do cvs is there something else they can do to test for what they need to?

TXSparky

I am so so sorry you are dealing with this. I really hope and will pray with every bit of my heart that something good will be coming your way and that somehow you will find some peace in everything going on in your life. With all of the support you have offered others, you certainly deserve it. I have been and will continue to keep you in my prayers. I only wish I could do more.

Thanks for the update! I will be thinking of you and your little one!

The first thing I did this morning when I woke up was look for an update from you Lisa (I'm west coast). Sorry to read about your nightmare. Praying things work out for further testing and more clarity. How is your H doing? Glad you could see your baby better today!

I'm still sending lots of good thoughts to you during this very difficult time.

Thinking of you and that sweet little baby this morning.

lisaren

Could not do cvs. The fluid is all around baby, like a halo, under the chin, and seeping in abdomen. It's like the baby is wearing a spacesuit. The outcome will Not be good. The baby's belly is already swollen. The MFM Dr has been amazing as well as my midwife.Tomorrow is Emma Claire's birthday so we will celebrate this with smiles.
With seeing this big of a cystic hygroma in this gestation of pregnancy, the baby will develop hydrops and/or pass before birth, the inevitable will happen. At this point waiting for this seems cruel and unfair to the sweet baby. Nothing seems to make much sense. I'm hoping the decisions we've made and continue to make will be the right ones and we can find peace within.

I love all of you to the moon and back. I will check in from time to time. I will not be ttc again, so I will stop by to just peek here. I know this place is full of snark and honesty but I hope my rainbows and cupcakes brought some smiles to the board.
What each of you are going through, and will experience, is magical. Remember every single second. Take the small shit in stride. The nursery the baby showers, the small shit... Just love the moment. You are all so blessed to have this little being coming into your life. They are lucky to have you.

I know some are freaked out about Fb, but if you wanted to add me I'm ok with that. I'm
Not crazy, or a stalker. But I understand that many are.

I will ask BJ to make @HisGirlFriday929‌ the mod.

I'll update when I know anything else.

@lisaren I have no words to tell you how I feel about what you are going through. Your words left me in tears in my office. You are such an amazing and strong person and I wish you and your family all the best in the future. What is happening to you isn't fair but I hope that you will find peace in whatever decision you make.

@lisaren I've been thinking of you all morning but haven't had a chance to pop in for an update. I'm absolutely heartbroken for you. I'm so, so sorry you're going through this. I have no words to even express my condolences, only hugs & prayers.

lisaren

Here's the picture. They tried to find one that had a profile. You can see the halo on the bottom pic. I know my info is on here but it's fine. Such a sweet nose.

ProcessofBecoming

I'm so, so sorry, and cannot imagine the pain that you and your family are enduring right now. You're making impossible decisions, while trying to care for your family and yourself and I have such respect and admiration for how you're handling all of this. You've been a great moderator and source of support for so many on this board, and your presence here will be so deeply missed. I'm praying for you and wishing you strength and peace in the days ahead. The pictures of your baby are beautiful; my heart breaks for what you're going through. Huge hugs. 

brichar31

I am heartbroken for you, I've been checking the BMB constantly over the passed day hoping by some miracle things would start to look up for your sweet baby.  I'm so sorry you and your family are going through this, its devastating I'm sure.  Take care of yourself.

I am so sorry you are going through this.

PandaCon

@Lisaren  I am so so sorry that you have to go through all this.  I know that making these decisions are unbelievably hard.  We will miss your rainbows and sprinkles on this board.  As previous posters have said you are an incredibly tough woman and will always be a N14 Momma. 

She is precious and beautiful.  Again I am so so sorry that you and your family are going through this. Take care of yourself lady. I will be praying for your whole family. 

ccam

I can't even imagine what you are going through right now.  No one should have to make these kind of decisions.  My T&Ps are with you, your family and your LO.

@lisaren There isn't anything I can say that others before me haven't already said. My heart breaks for you and your family going through this, and your rainbows and cupcakes will definitely be missed.
