Found out Saturday that friends of ours who were pg & due in Feb lost their little boy at 19 weeks because of unforeseen complications. My heart hurts for them; they had been TTC for about 9 mos prior to getting pg. This is the first time I've seen something like this happen to someone I actually know, and it is so much harder to hear about now that we have our LO. Hug your babies extra today, even after they blowout their diapers and spit up all over you. Eta emoticon removed
I'm just having a hard time getting it off my mind. I was going to make a ring sling for them, but now I don't want to give it to them. Maybe if they decide to try again? Eta spelling error
A couple I know IRL lost their baby when she was 17 weeks pregnant. When they were ready, they tried again and they have a beautiful baby boy who was also born in June. I can't imagine the pain they went through and are still going through.
And now I'm crying, being a mom really makes me emotional when I hear stories like this. I've know friends to have miscarriages but cannot imagine being 19 weeks along.HUGS
So sorry for your friends. While I was pregnant the secretary at my schools' daughter was also expecting 4 days after my due date, she lost her baby at 20 weeks. It broke my heart bc her mom and I would talk daily about the babies and what all was going on. It really made me treasure my pregnancy.
I'm so sorry for the loss. Mine was lost at 7 weeks but I didn't know until 11 weeks. I can't imagine being half way along and going through that. So sad.
