I feel this baby moving inside of me and it pains me to think that this might be the only contact I ever have with my child.
I feel lucky and blessed to have one healthy and beautiful child that I can hold in my arms, but somehow that does not lessen the pain of having an unborn child in danger.
I feel like waiting a whole week to see if this child that’s in my body, that I already love, will ever have a chance to see the light of day is longer than I’ve ever had to wait for anything.
I feel helpless.
I feel scared.
I feel alone.
I feel a tiny bit of hope.
I feel afraid of hoping.
I feel grateful for all the support I have gotten. Thank you.

I will hope for you. I wish I could give you a big hug. I know the pain of that kind of loss, and I pray you will never know.

Friend, I know you don’t necassarily hold the same beliefs that I do, but I find comforting the thought that God has you and your tiny baby in His hands. He has that baby in His heart and the baby will be okay, whether it’s bad news or good. The baby will go home to be with God. That is sad for you…like you, I would be devastated that I didn’t get to have the baby with me. BUT, if worst case scenario is this precious life doesn’t get to live on earth, this baby will be glorified in heaven. And already is, really, even if it’s great news. I pray for you. I will keep praying for you. And your family.

Words can not express the actual support I would like to give you in your time of need but I will continue praying for you. The Lord does miracles all the time and can turn a negative situation into a positive one. That is my deepest desire for you along with peace and comfort. Hugs to you amiga.

Rebecca says
Just a little tidbit to maybe give you a bit of hope. When I was pregnant with my first, they saw something ‘wrong’ with her heart. I was sent to a level two ultrasound and at that appointment whatever it was, was gone. He explained that if mom is sick weird things sometimes show up on the ultrasound on vital organs like the heart (I’m sure the kidneys are no exception). Have you been sick? Maybe everything is just fine and you and the baby will have stories to share about that one time when you were 17 weeks along.
unknownmami says
Thank you, my friend.
Aging Mommy says
I so wish there were some words to say that would magically make you feel better, or make this all go away or this next week be over and done with so you can get your answers. I have been thinking about you all morning and will continue to think about you and hope for good news.
Jen says

A cold pain gripped my stomach when I read your post from yesterday. I’m *so* sorry that you have this awful sword hanging over you and I can imagine how fear is currently filling your every waking hour.
I’m assuming that you now have the awful wait for a second scan. It’s been 22 years since I was carrying a baby but even given medical advances, 17 weeks does still seem very early to truly know what is going on and to make such profound pronouncements. I’m hoping and praying that this was an error and that baby is fine.
Sending all my love to you and your family. x
