Late Term and Child Loss

Can I join :(

Hey all,
I found out Wed that we lost one of our twin boys at 21 weeks.  Jonathan Daniel was doing great at our appointment on July 15th.  He did have a hole in his heart which we were meeting with the cardiologist to develop a plan for after birth.  We were told that the hole was not a big problem and that everything should be fine.  I went in for my Dr appointment July 23 to find that Jonathan did not have a heart beat any more.  The dr believes he got a blood clot caused by the hole.  I am still in shock.  I'm trying to stay positive since I am still pregnant with his brother but it is so hard.  Now that Jonathan is gone I am actually feeling his brother moving around and kicking.  I am 22 weeks pregnant and am on modified bed rest until I have another dr appointment to see how things are going.  They are afraid that I will go in to labor early.

Any advice would be appreciated.

  • I am sorry for your loss. I lost my baby at 22 weeks and it honesty was the hardest thing I have ever had to do. You are suffering a loss, but you are also celebrating a future birth - focus on that!

    I am so sorry for your loss. We lost our twins at 21 weeks. I can't imagine the anxiety and fear you feel right now, I had hoped we would be able to save our Twin B and keep her in after her sister's water broke, but they were born within 30 minutes of each other.

    I hope you can find a few moments of peace in your grief and fear, and I hope that you are able to have a supported experience whatever the outcome.

    So sorry for your loss!  We lost both our boys on July 16 due to TTTS.  It's devastating! 

    All I can say is stay strong for your other son!!  Everyday is a blessing in disguise!  I can say this from a sincere and truthful heart because that's exactly what our daughter is to us right now...She just turned 11 months old and she is truly our saving grace.  It's hard to frown when she smiles so bright at us! 

    So think of every flutter, kick, and punch he gives you as your reason to smile!!! 

     

    BIG HUGS and prayers to you! <3 

  • I am so sorry for your loss.  I lost twins at 22.5 weeks.  At one point, my doctors had talked about trying to save baby B, but his water actually broke before baby A.  Sending love and hugs to you and your family. I hope your other little boy is able to come home with you. 
  • I'm so sorry for the loss of your baby boy. I hope the rest of your pregnancy goes, my prayers are with you.

    I am so so sorry for the loss of your son Jonathan Daniel.  My heart breaks for all of us who end up here, and I have a very soft spot for other IFers. 

    We went through cycles together in July and then in March, and I am hoping for the very best as your pregnancy continues.  Please come here as often as you want for support or just to lurk and be in the 'company' of others who have had similar experiences and get it, for lack of a better term.
