Such sad words I never wanted to say...

Many of you know and have been praying for my SIL and her precious baby girl as she was having complications with her pregnancy...Well Wednesday she had gone in for another sonogram and they said her fluid levels were up which was good, not great like they wanted but good and her H&H level had stayed up so they were happy with that. Well Thursday morning she had some problems and some pain in her side so she immediately called the Dr and they sent her to the hospital for another sonogram and blood test. So she went and did these things and they determined that her cervix was a bit dilated and that the pain was contractions, but her sonogram was the same as the day before and her H&H level was good so they decided to just keep her for observation overnight and to try and get the labor to stop.

Well I am deeply saddened to tell you that I got a text this afternoon (which was actually sent this morning but it came through late) but the text said that they had lost the baby this morning and they were expecting delivery within the next 8 hours...And she would call me later, well I never did talk to her...I was tempted to call her so many times but I just knew if she wanted to talk she would call me, and I want to give her the space she needs to absorb all of this...I do not know what happened other than my FIL in a brief conversation with my Hubby said that the baby's heart stopped and that she still had not delivered the baby, they were waiting for that to happen...So that is what I knew as of 3:30 Friday afternoon and I know nothing else...

My heart breaks for her and she is in my prayers profusely and I love her very much...

  10. Thank you all for your warm thoughts and prayers. I did talk to my SIL today and she of course is very distraught and is not ready to talk about the deep feelings of saddness that she is feeling. She did want me to pass along a thank you to everyone who has thought and prayed for their family...Now she needs tons and tons of prayers for healing..
