I was torn between not wanting to AW, and not wanting to ghost out after being a part of this great board for months now. We had an appointment today that confirmed the NIPT via ultrasound. We will be scheduled into the hospital next week to officially end the pregnancy. It has been an incredibly difficult three weeks since we got the NIPT results, but we believe that we are making the best decision for our little boy. I am feeling destroyed right now, and don't know that I'll be able to deal with the heartbreak of trying again, but I might be back on the TTCAL board after I've done some healing. I wish you all the best over the next few months. Thank you for all the support and the messages.
My heart is shattered reading your words. I am so sorry for you and your family that you have to endure this. Take all the time you need to grieve your son and don’t let anyone make you feel otherwise. You are a wonderful mother. My PM door is always open if you need to vent, cry, or talk about daily life after.
So much love and internet hugs to you today.

@bakerstreetboys I’m so incredibly sorry for what you are going through. I also had a previous loss and then had to make the horrible decision to TMFR- my baby girl had Triploidy. I found a lot of comfort on Baby Center boards about triploidy and TMFR and I thought that I would share that as a resource for you since TB does not have any resources or boards on these topics. I hope that knowing that you are not alone and that others have gone through it are going through the same thing could provide even a small bit of comfort at this awful time.
I am so sorry. Wishing you strength, rest, and support in the coming hours, days, and months. I know this whole board and probably many lurkers are thinking of you and sending you good thoughts.
@bakerstreetboys I was so hoping this update wouldn’t come. I am sorry for the loss of your sweet boy and and sending you and your family love during this difficult time.
