My first doctor's appointment was today, and it was an enormous letdown. The baby's heartbeat is half of where it should be at this point in the pregnancy. This means that my chances of miscarrying in the next 2 weeks is extremely high. I'm going back next week for another ultrasound as my doctor did see a heartbeat...it just wasn't strong.
I'm not going to lie...my husband and I are heartbroken. I never knew there could be this kind of sadness. I'm hoping and praying that by some miracle, God decides to save our baby and he/she turns out healthy and happy.
As things progress, I'll keep you ladies updated, but just was looking for a little support in having to go through this. I was hoping I would never have to write a post like this...
Oh no :( I am so sorry! I don't know what to say really, but you'll be in my thoughts. I hope your baby manages to pull through!
We're all here for you.
((hugs))
I am so sorry to hear that. ((Hugs)) I will keep you in my thoughts and will be sending positive thoughts your way! Keep us updated- you always have us to turn to when you need to!
Oh, honey, I am so sorry. I know how long you've wanted a baby and how long you've been trying. I am so sorry you have to go through this. Hugs. I'll keep you in my prayers as things develop.
I can't imagine how you're feeling... I will keep all my fingers crossed for you and baby, and will be thinking about you and sending lots of healthy baby thoughts your way. *hugs*
I am so sorry, and I really hope that maybe it's just a slight abnormality that fixes itself. I wish you all the best, and I am so sorry. You'll be in my thoughts (((hugs)))
Aw, I am so sorry to hear that! My heart goes out to you right now! Hopefully everything turns out ok!
((HUGS)) I hope everything will turn out well and your doctor will find a stronger heartbeat next week!
I am so, so sorry! Did they put you on bed rest? Take it easy - prayers being sent your way for a strong, healthy heart beat!
My thoughts and prayers are with you. This thing does happen with a happy ending, so stay positive for your little one. Things always work out in the end. Stay strong and healthy and everything will be okay.
Oh I'm so sorry! I agree it's a completely new type of pain.
Hang in there little baby!
Thanks all. It's comforting to know that you all are here to offer encouraging words. My doctor said that there isn't anything that I can or can't do to prevent it from happening if it's going to happen...and there wasn't anything I did or didn't do that produced this outcome either. So it's definietly a wait and see approach. I know that God will only give me as much as I can handle, but this definitely isn't something I wanted experience handling.
Major hugs your way, I hope things look better at your next appointment!
@2PeasinaPod: Aw, BIG HUGS!!!! I'm sorry about the news you received today. Crossing my fingers that at your next appt. the heartbeat will be stronger and everything will be just fine!!!!
I'm so sorry you're going through this and have to deal with these weeks of such uncertainty. I hope all turns out well.
You're in my prayers, I am so sorry you have to go through this. I hope you will be blessed with better news at the next doctor's visit!
Thinking of you....wishing I could take away your worry and sadness - oh if it were only that easy right?
I'm really hoping that your next ultrasound will have better news (I know I have read of instances where the heart rate was higher at the next ultrasound). Did the doctor tell you what they measured the heart rate at? Or did they just say it was low?
*big hugs*
(((((HUGS)))))) I am so sorry. I really hope that things turn around and your next appointment brings you better news....and a healthy happy baby early next year.
@echo: We actually saw the heartbeat ourselves. He couldn't find it at first, and when he finally did, we could see that it was slower than my own pulse rate (which is usually around 90...high for a healthy female, I know). I knew as soon as the nurse left when he couldn't find it at first that it was bad news. I'm not giving up on him/her yet, but I'm just trying not to get my hopes up too high either....
@2PeasinaPod: I'm so sorry your appointment was so sad. I know it's impossible not to worry and be upset, but remember that right now, you are still pregnant, your baby is still with you, still alive, heart still beating. Will be praying for strength for you and your little one, better news next week, and peace to you and your husband as you go through this.
im so sorry that youre facing this - your family is in my prayers, especially your little one
Stick, baby, stick!
My thoughts are with you, and your DH!
Stay strong, baby! Thoughts and prayers for you, DH and Little One!
I'm so so sorry 2peas. I know how much you love this baby already, and that you have been waiting for him / her to come to you for a while now. I am sending all my best wishes for a happy ending for you, and that the heartbeat gets stronger and stronger.
@2PeasinaPod: I know exactly what you mean about trying to remain positive, but at the same time, trying not to get your hopes up too high either. It's such a fine line to walk isn't it? Keeping all my fingers and toes crossed for you!!
I'm sorry. I hope things pick up and you and your baby are both healthy. Either way, I am sorry that you have to go through this. :(
Oh I'm so sorry. I'll be thinking of you and your little on over the next few weeks as you get updates and news. Please keep us posted.
I have been following you from the start and my thoughts/prayers are with you.
@2PeasinaPod: I'm so sorry :( Lots of prayers and thoughts going out to you and your husband. Please keep us updated and try to stay strong and positive
I am so sad to hear this. :(
In my positive thinking I say at least there IS a heartbeat!
Thinking of you & your baby that his/her heartbeat continues to beat stronger!!!
*hugs!
*BIG HUGS* I'm so sorry this is happening. I'll be thinking of you and sending good intentions your way.
That's no good!
Totally praying that our awesome God would have His hand on that child..... His child, that the healing that our Saviour accomplished for us would be manifested and that Gods Word would invade and encourage your heart.. knowing that what is from God is ALWAYS good and that it's the enemy that comes to steal, kill, and destroy. I speak and believe life over that child and that the plan that was set out for them before the creation of the Earth would stand and that with God they would walk in out to completion. In Jesus Mighty name!
p.s. Remember that David fasted and prayed for his son full of faith that God would heal him to the very end, regardless of the way it looked... he stood on the Word and God's truth ;)
I'll continue to pray for you and your family! ;)
