sad day

lmg423 · March 2011

I posted a couple weeks ago about my SIL who had severe eclampsia at 27 weeks and had her daughter early.

They were both doing well and last night the baby took a turn for the worst. It's incredibly sad and being 40+ weeks pregnant is making it even harder. I could go any day but have a induction scheduled for Sunday.

They are having a service for her in the next few days. I've never experienced something like this with someone so close. And while I want to be there to give support. I'm such a wreck and it's making me anxious for my own birth. I couldn't sleep at all last night and have just been laying in bed all day today. Still not able to sleep. It's so hard to have this loss.

I'm kind of hoping our little one holds out until April just to have some separation.

I am so sorry for your family's loss. DH's grandmother passed away a week and a half ago so I completely understand wanting a time space between a death and a birth. My prayers go out to your family.
