Please storm Heaven with your prayers for me and the baby I carry. I'm about 11 weeks along. I started spotting early this morning about 4am. I feel fine and fear the worst although I'm hoping for the best.
And pray that a doctor will see me soon. My dh just switched jobs 3 weeks ago and we have yet to get our medical cards. So, I'm praying the doctor will accept a piece of paper with all the pertinent information about our insurance. We are also new to this city so I'm not an "established" patient.
Your prayers are much appreciated!
I'm off to Mass right now. I can't think of what else to do.  I've never lost a baby before.
UPDATE: Thank you so much for your prayers!! I was finally able to get an appointment for tomorrow morning with a midwife. DH just started a new job 2 weeks ago and I was just waiting until we had medical cards and were in the system. So I hadn't made any appointments. Well, now I'm considered an "unestablished patient" and everyone I called said the wait was 3 weeks for an initial visit. I've been on the phone all day and called this place several times and they finally decided to allow me to come in tomorrow morning despite not having all our insurance information or being established. I can be quite persistent when need be. I pray tonight is uneventful and that all turns out well.
Again, thank you for your prayers. I believe they helped me get an appointment so early tomorrow. I'm still hoping for the best. Your comments were so encouraging to me and give me hope.
Well, I got back from the midwife around 2pm. Since they had to squeeze me in I did a lot of reading in their waiting room. The midwife was not able to find a heartbeat. And the ultrasound showed a completely empty sac. No tube even. The sac and placenta kept forming up to 7 wks 3 days but the baby stopped growing right after implantation, they think.
The kids were sad and even asked if they could pray for it to come back to life. Thankfully, I have both my mothers here and they both came to watch the kids. I'm disappointed about what will not be and so is dh. But I can't even begin to say how much all the prayers have done for me. I always hear people say that they can feel the prayers helping. And I've always wondered if that was true.
I felt peace going to bed last night (knowing someone as far away as Australia would be praying for me while I slept!!). And although I was sad in the office, I know that life must go on. And I can't stop looking at my five miracles. I'm even more astounded that they survived and are here with me now.
Now I just wait for my body to finish and heal. Time to readjust my thoughts and plans for the next several months. I think its still sinking in. Thank you so much for keeping me in your thoughts and prayers.
