    I had to deal with death every one of my three boys... I was 16 when I was preg with ds1 so that was extreme stress on me ... Ds3 I had a crazy amount of stress! And ds1 was 3 weeks early 6.14 and 19 inches... Ds2 a week late 8.9 and 21 inches ds 3 was 8.10 and 20 and he was a week early...
    I swear when I'm preganant it's a death sentence for someone with ds3 I lost my grandma who I was very very close with she died of alzimers so it was very hard to watch
