Im really sorry you had to experince this. I know its hard right now but I also hope that one day you receive the blessing you so deserve.
dansam, my baby has cystic hygroma and also an omphalocele which means its abdominal organs are developing outside its body. the ch is huge, it covers my babys neck shoulders and back right down to the tiny bottom. i too have been referred for more tests and detailed scan on tuesday to find out more. i know deep down i will lose this baby as that black shadow which was enveloping my baby was just SO BIG!!!! i pray for a miracle but i KNOW on Tuesday my world is going to cave in and i will feel even more lost than i do now. i pray you're still on here hun and that you're ok. i know how you feel, I've already had seven misscarriages and this will be my eigth lost baby, this hurts so much more than the misscarriages as i know my baby is growing and has a heartbeat and alli can do is wait for him or her to die. it is literally sould destroying hun, my heart goes out to u. this shouldn't happen, why?? i just wan to know why? I'm sure you will feel the same and I'd love to share and support hun. xxxxx
hope you're ok dansam and have managed to find some peace after your loss xxxxx
