Relaxing Doesn't Make Babies

Miscarriage and a Miracle (not mine)

February 7, 2007 — 11:51 am

A friend of mine in some forums, she got pregnant with her second child… pregnant again after a miscarriage. It was a good thing. :) She is/was 7 weeks and started bleeding. A lot. She said she passed a huge clot or two. Everyone was so upset for her… it’s just not fair for one person to have to go through that much pain, you know? So yesterday she had her blood drawn to confirm her hcg levels were dropping appropriately.

They had doubled.

She scheduled an U/S and went to check… and they saw a very live baby measuring right on track, heart beating away.

Let it be known… miracles DO exist.

(She thinks she was pregnant with twins and lost one of them… but the doctor’s can’t confirm that one way or the other.)

Update: I am very sorry to have to edit this to say that at the next ultrasound it was discovered that the baby’s heart had stopped beating.

    that happened to me too. I thought I was going to die. Thankfully it was just blood left over from when I had a cyst on my ovary and it closed over after the egg was released.

    That would just be SO scary. In a way, I think getting pregnant and losing it would be harder than not getting pregnant at all.

    I think so too
