I know. I'm not judging you at all. If I knew my child would be severely impaired I would do the same. Just didn't sound like you knew how things were going to go.

With the amnio results, they will likely find the genetic issue at fault but it is extremely likely that it is a totally random event just like my DD.

She is my lightning strike. It's one of those things that "never happens" and I didn't run around in any thunderstorms or have any reason for this to happen but it did. I'm sorry that something has happened to your DD too.

It's shocking when one finds out about something like this and it takes time to make peace with it. I still struggle some days. No judgement from me at all. You have to do what's best for your family. It's not our place to judge at all.

Northern, how utterly devastating. I'm so very sorry. I hate the randomness of this whole baby making gig, there's nothing fair about it at all. I won't be able to get onto the net for a few days after this, but I'll be thinking of you and will pray that things go as smoothly as possible, and that they treat you and Evelyn with care and respect. All she will ever know is your love. I wish I knew what to say that might give you some comfort, or at least give you a huge hug. :(

Fish, still crossing everything that you get some better news soon. Please stop blaming yourself, there is no way you can possibly isolate yourself from all germs, bacteria, or risks, it's simply not possible, so blaming yourself is like adding insult to injury. If only our babies outcomes were diectly related to how much we love them, things would be so much better. Sorry you had a crappy experience at the hospital yesterday, I hope the next one is better and you get more info soon. Waiting and not knowing is torture. Xxx

Northern- I wish I had the words to make everything better. I'm so very sorry. :(

Fish- I agree with everyone else.. Do not blame yourself!! I'll be praying hard that it's an old infection.

Hugs to both of you!!

4Giffins- My ultrasound is tomorrow too! I go one hour after you at 12. What time zone are you in?

Gender u/s tomorrow? That's exciting!

Shiningstar and 4giffins, good luck for tomorrow!

I think Shiningstar and 4Giffins are finding out tomorrow.

Exciting I will be stalking! :)

Northern - I read your blog, my heart breaks for you :(

Northern I too have been reading your blog and with each update I end up in tears. No mother should ever have to go through a loss like this, the word "unfair" just doesn't touch the scale of this. My heart is truly breaking for you and your family. I can tell from your words how amazingly strong you are and although I understand you will never be the same, I know you will come through this.
