After loosing dd2 last year at 22weeks (T18 and a tfmr) I was told I probably couldn't have any more.

I made myself ok with it. It would just be 3 of us.

Then I found out I was pregnant. It has been anxious and stressful. All tests came back clear, found out he was a boy. I had a really good feeling that things would be ok.

Routine antenatal clinic today the doc said at the end of the appointment that he could give me a quick scan if I had time and it wouldn't make me too anxious.

Turns out our baby died, the day after our scan at fmc where everything looked great. No reason they can tell.

I actually don't think I know how to do all this again.

Kitty im so sorry to hear this. I was on here last year as gingerbreadmam. We discovered our son died at 27weeks. I cant believe this has happened to you i am very truly sorry. You gave me some great advice and support when i went through my loss. I wish i could do the same for you.

My db found out his dp was 5months pregnant 3months after i gave birth to lucas. They never wanted any more dc, were adamant. Felt so cruel at the time but the due date is fast approaching and i am now looking forward to her arrival. I know u have much less time than that and things are still fresh but just saying try not to focus on it too much right now.

marmiteontoast76 · 07/03/2016 19:24

It is unbearable. There are no words.
I've just pmd you.

KittyandTeal · 07/03/2016 19:52

I remember you dexty. I'm glad I could help a bit. Hopefully I'll get there again.

It's good to hear that you are excited. I'm sure it will be bitter sweet but in the end I will be excited. And I'm glad dd1 will have a cousin as we will definitely not be having any more.

FourForYouGlenCoco · 07/03/2016 20:25

Oh no. You don't know me I don't think but I've seen you on various posts, and always admired your grace and ability to somehow say the right thing, even when there is no right thing to say. I am so, so terribly sorry this has happened to you again. It's so bloody unfair. Leo is a gorgeous name. Flowers

Oh kitty no no no, there are just no words I am so sorry, we have only ever 'chatted' here on mnet but I was so pleased for you when I saw you were pregnant. Life is so unbelievably unfair and cruel.

No words are enough. I am sending you love and strength and thinking of you and your family.

SweetieDrops · 07/03/2016 20:52

I'm so sorry Kitty, I've seen your posts and I was hoping things would work out what a sad thing to happen. Take care of yourself Flowers

KittyandTeal · 07/03/2016 20:59

Thank you all, it is strangely comforting to think so many people out there care.

I guess it's normal but I'm feeling utterly broken right now. I'm wondering if this is the thing that finally breaks me. I'm not quite sure how you come back from this.
