It always sucks to see the ten million happy pregnancy and baby updates, but I just read on FB that a couple I know just lost their baby at around 20 weeks.
This majorly bums me out. They struggled for a long time to have a baby due to health factors with the mom and they were over the moon.
I'm not close friends with these people, but I am definitely going to be thinking about them for a while after reading that heartbreaking news.
Re: ...another reason FB blows...
IVF #1 with ICSI - ER 1/20 (16R, 12M, 10F), ET 1/23 (1-10 cell and 1-8cell transferred), BFP on 1/31 Beta #1 on 2/3 = 68, Beta #2 on 2/6 = 261 EDD 10/12/12
After more than 2 years of fertility treatments, FET did the trick!
IVF March 2012 - BFP! - Severe OHSS = 8 days in the hospital in kidney failure
No heartbeat at 10w6d
FET August 27,2012 = BFP!
It's a boy!

Weird... that does sound very similar. It's so sad that anybody anywhere has to go through this. Ever.
It is. When I found out on Monday night what was going on I was up til 2am sobbing for them because its just so heart wrenching
Oh my gosh, that is terrible. Do you notice though that even people you don't know you feel connected through for the same reason? Just reading the initial post about the terrible news made me tear up. I just hope that they have the support system as we do on here (and of course their families) to help them get through it.
Keeping them in my thoughts...
Yes, I do. I feel like I should send them a message in a few weeks to let them know I've been thinking about them, even though we don't know them that well.
They have a LOT of good friends... but they're friends who seem to be walking baby making machines. It's going to be really hard. Everyone here who is sending them well wishes is so sweet!!
