2nd time round, still no heartbeat!(a bit long)

We had our first missed mc in September, only found out when we went for our first ultrasound that there is no heartbeat and baby's heart stopped beating +/- 2 days prior. So we had a d&e (or d&c) and waited 3 months before we started ttc again. Found out we were pregnant first week of Feb. Scheduled our first ultrasounf for the day after my birthday, only to find out that it's still the same story as with the first pregnancy, still no heartbeat.

I took it quite well, (or so I thought, since it's only hitting me now).

The doctor phoned today with the test results, it was a downs baby. I am devistated, she said she's going to get a second opinion and she still wants to do more test. Not devistated becos it was a downs baby, but devistated that the chances are 50/50 that we will get pregnant again and 50/50 that I will be able to carry past the 1st Trimester.

I don't know if I can do this whole thing again. Getting excited when you find out you are pregnant, being pregnant for 9 weeks and then not being pregnant anymore!! Such a rollercoaster.

 Any other moms who feel the same way?
