Janaki died inside me and I can almost pinpoint the moment of her death. My first ever miscarriage, I had no bleeding, nothing, saw a heartbeat and then at 9.5 weeks the baby had gotten smaller and died. What a cruel joke. <br /><br />I know I've already commented on your later post and how glad I am that everything is going well, but we're allowed to be neurotic damnit.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7557679011566521438.post-30082088196400315392009-04-30T17:13:00.000-07:002009-04-30T17:13:00.000-07:00I hope the scan went well today.I hope the scan went well today.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7557679011566521438.post-58533045598350130642009-04-30T09:26:00.000-07:002009-04-30T09:26:00.000-07:00I am wanted you to know that I am thinking about y...I am wanted you to know that I am thinking about you and sending all my well wishes and prayers you way.

The day before our heart-breaking ultrasound last year, we attempted to find a heart beat using one. We could not. <br /><br />We tried to convince ourselves that it was simply too early to find one (10 weeks) with a doppler, but there was simply no heart beat to be found.<br /><br />I'm not sure we're ready to try using one again. If we can't find a beat (which is very common due to baby movement etc) we'll be panicked...<br /><br />More cruel tricks fate plays...<br /><br />Mr. ShelbyMr. Shelbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16401409256981463271noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7557679011566521438.post-78063084362298323882009-04-30T08:36:00.000-07:002009-04-30T08:36:00.000-07:00Good luck tomorrow.Good luck tomorrow.Tarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14683127027917195775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7557679011566521438.post-49772306745495191352009-04-30T06:35:00.000-07:002009-04-30T06:35:00.000-07:00I wish I could take away your anxiety.

I wish I could put this protective little bubble around you, so you didn't have to experience anymore worry around this pregnancy.<br /><br />I know today's u/s will be a milestone for you. I hope after it, you will be able to yell "HA!" back at that imaginary voice. Or best yet, I hope it will bring you further peace of mind.<br /><br />I am thinking of you.
