This week we found out our little girl has major heart (and other problems). She is not compatible with life and we have decided to terminate.
I am beyond heartbroken. DH is normally the strong, silent type but he is devastated. Our 20 week scan revealed a possible problem. We were referred to GOSH who found out things were far, far worse than previously thought.
I feel so guilty as I was very unsure about this pregnancy: we have a non-sleeping 13 month old and family are far away. I didn't know how I was going to cope. Now I wish that'd been the only thing to worry about.
I've bought a little outfit, shawl and teddy for her.
Have spent today throwing up. I know I have to be strong for my son but I don't know how I'll get through this - how can I ever be happy after this?
The moment that kills me is remembering the delight on DH's face when we were told it was a girl. Then it all went horrible.
I can't see how we can cope?
