Challenges with our baby

[AlohaStyle]

Oh man, so sorry for your loss. I'm not saying at all my experience is the same as yours, but my wife and I went through a miscarriage after we already had an ultrasound showing the baby and heartbeat. We were devastated but I know it doesn't compare to seeing your boy in person and letting him go.

One thing that helped us get through it is just realizing everything happens for a reason and it just wasn't meant to be. Hopefully this will help your wife get healthy and you will be ready for a new child when the timing is ready.

Thoughts and prayers to you and your wife.

So sorry Chris. Got goosebumps reading this and a great deal of sadness for you.

So very sorry to hear this Chris....thoughts go out to you an your wife brother.

Went through losing a baby at 14 weeks just this past year, so I know the pain and helplessness that you're feeling.

Be strong for your wife as she'll need that more than anything right now. I hate that this type of thing happens far too often with pregnancy. Just plain sucks ass for lack of a better way of putting it.

Hang in there brother...

Something never shared outside my immediate family is we too went through the same thing as AlohaStyle.

Essentially my wife's body rejected the fetus after we knew she was pregnant and had begun preparations. We were devastated and my wife felt she had done something wrong to cause her body to abort.

It was a very very challenging time for us and took many months for the wounds to even begin to heal. It was also particularly devastating because my wife is older than me and we always had concerns about having a child.

In the end she became pregnant a year later, carried our son to full term and he a is a healthy happy bouncing 4 year old.

I'm sorry for the pain and hurt you are going through now. I can only hope you find peace soon and are not discouraged enough to try again.

I'm so sorry for your loss, Chris. I'm sure I speak for everyone when I say if there is anything we can do, please reach out.

 

[Gravity]

I'm so sorry to hear that, brother. My wife is pregnant right now, and the stress of worrying about her and the baby got to me a bit after reading your post, got some major tears, heh.

If there is ANYTHING you need, please let us know.

 

[CigarSaint]

My prayer are with you and your wife for sure.

I'm praying for you and your wife.

God works in mysterious ways my friend. I know it sounds like a common reply but I believe that in everything that happens in life.

Nancy and I had the same thing happen only to be blessed later on with 2 kids.

Things will work themselves out for you both. But, from experience, this is the time your wife needs you the most. Comfort her, tell her you love her, and don't give up the fight.

If there is anything I can do for you please don't hesitate to ask.

God Bless

Hi brothers,

I'd like to ask that you keep my wife and me in your thoughts and prayers right now. As some of you know, my wife is pregnant with our first child.

We had a scan about five-six weeks ago that showed some potential genetic abnormalities. We did further tests that ruled out some of the worst possibilities, but it did turn up some odd features on one of the chromosomes.

Could be just fine, or could mean a lot of different problems from minor to very serious. Please keep us in your prayers -- we are committed to this child (a son) but it feels like every time we get some clarity it comes with a ton more questions about what could really be going on. It has been very frustrating.

I will say an extra prayer for you and your family...God Bless you all.
