Hello Everyone,

I am sorry I have not posted sooner. So emotional about everything. Well they say my baby will not live long. They say the baby has a chromosome problem Trisomy18. So when I give birth I will have comfort care. This is so hard speaking it out loud. I am still praying for a miracle because God can do the impossible when man gives up. I believe that god has the final say so. Any advice on how to deal with this. D

I am so sorry to hear about your baby. I believe in the power of prayer and positive thought. I hope and pray that everything is OK. I don't know if there is anyway to deal with it other then head on. Enjoy every minute that you are blessed to have this baby in your life and give baby everything that you can. It is a hard concept for me to deal with but it is out of our hands.

*big huge hugs*

I am so sorry that you are going through so much! You and your little one are in my thoughts and prayers. Make sure you find someone to talk to - friends, family member, pastor, etc.

I am so sorry to hear this. I pray the drs are wrong and that things turn out better than expected...but if not, that you get as much time as possible to hold and love your little one. I have no words to bring comfort to you, and wish there was something to do to help you through this. I would recommend that since you're fore-warned that this is a strong possibility that you start now to find a support group or someone to talk to as you go through the rest of your pregnancy and the birth of your baby. Don't wait until after your baby's birth. This is going to be the hardest, most stressful thing you've ever been through - I know that w/o ever having been there myself - and you will need help. Hold tight to your husband and lean on each other, but also reach out to someone outside the situation to help you through.
