I cant explain...

I can'e explain what I am feeling right now. I just got home from a long 24hrs. My oldest sister had been taken to the hospital for bleeding. She is 22-23 weeks pregnant and this is the second time she has had to go to the ER this month. I spent the night with her last night and luckily everything seems to have calmed down. They released her this morning. I was totally excited to see her be able to go home. It isnt going to be an easy pregnancy for her, but I know she is strong enought to handle anything that is thrown at her.
The other thing is that some aquantinces of ours did not share the same outcome that we had last night. They were in labor and delivery last night at six months pregnant. The baby did not make it.
I am just sad for them, becuase we were going through all of thse emotions. I just cant explain it. I cant even imagine what they are going though and my heart aches for them tonight.

As a woman who is trying to concieve a child it is very scary to see all of the things that can go wrong. I know that this is part of it, and part of the miracle of actually getting to bring your child home. Im just sad for them

Poncho and sara, my heart goes out to you, I am so sorry for your loss. You will be in my prayers.

Oh sweetie, I'm so sorry about your sister. So glad to hear that everything is calming down. How scary. And that is just heartbreaking about the couple that lost their child. I empathize with you on how scary it can be for us TTC and everything that can go wrong. Good luck to you and your sister!

Thanks. I really appreciate that. My sister is at home currently on "light activity" orders. She is determined to keep that baby in there for 13 more weeks so she can have a at home birth! I hope she does!
