Congratulations again ladybug. I think that's the first time I've read a sway with tears in my eyes! I'm so happy that you were given this precious gift at such an otherwise awful time of your life and I hope for a healthy and preferably pink baby in around 8 months time. Take care x

I think your sway looks fantastic and I wish you loads of luck and love for a h and h nine months and a beautiful pink bundle, fx!

Congrats LadyBug!! I really hope this is your GIRL! Sway looks great!

I am so thrilled for you, I think you had a wonderful sway and I know that whatever the outcome, your mom is definitely involved in the making of this little one. God Bless you and your family during this difficult time. xo.

Ladybug,
I just read this thread and your post. I am so sorry. I hope you are managing okay and that you may come to peace with the fact that it was not meant to be this time. I am especially sorry about your mom, what a difficult time for you.
Sending you lots of prayers and best wishes.
