feeling contractions, and been very uncomfortable. Just as I was on
my way to the bedroom to get ready for bed, I felt more contractions
and knew I needed to go to the ER. Once we arrived at TGH, we went
strait up to L&D. They quickly determined that I was in labor. It
seemed as though Baby A needed to come out. At 2:24am on 1/31/09,
Baby A was stillborn. Since then, my labor signs have seemed to
subside, and the others seem fine. On Sunday, I am scheduled to get a
cerclage (a stitch in my cervix) that may possibly help me carry the
others longer. Still, there are no guarantees that I'll even make it
to 24 weeks because the doctors all say that we are in uncharted
territory. All we can do is pray that I can continue carrying the
others to viability.
I am going to try and get some more rest now. Please, please continue
your prayers for us.
Love,
Lauren & Josh

Lo and josh,
ReplyDeleteMy heart breaks for what you have had to go through this past week. We are praying for you. Hang in there.
I've only just "met" you and your blog, but my heart aches for you. I am so sorry for your loss. I imagine that you don't have the luxury to grieve as you grow your remaining three.
ReplyDeleteKnow that we are thinking of you.
Thinking of you all at this difficult time. You have been through so much, I can't imagine. Hope it's only good news from here on out. The footprints on Josh's blog are so sweet, I know you will cherish those forever...she's your babies little hero.
