Can I share one more quick thing? Last week on the very day I began spotting, I was at the kitchen sink (where my deep thinking occurs) and I had a wave of peace and grace and happiness regarding this new baby. I remember a feeling of giving over my will to God's and then laughing. A little later I felt sickly, unmistakeningly pregnant sickly,and then the spotting late that evening. I wonder now if the baby died that same day. I don't know, but it gives me a bit of peace thinking that I had that sweet moment. |

Erika, I am so sorry. I just had to comment o the above. I experienced this very profoundly during my last pregnancy (before Cecilia) and we know the baby passed that day b/c of the timing of the ultrasound we had. I prayed, then laughed out loud. The exact same thing.

Thank you, everyone, for your kind words and prayers!
Lisa, I am so glad you shared your experience. My HCG levels were 11,000+ the next day and then two days later only 500, so I do think the baby may have very well died that day.
God granted another moment of peace for me. I hadn't passed any tissue at all, just lots of bleeding. Then one afternoon last week, I passed what we know was the baby. And, that was it. More bleeding and now almost nothing. Even in my confusion and sadness and guilt, God is so good.
Thank you again for everything.
Much, much love,
