JulieS 12-27-2005 Tuesday, 10:46 AM Tell her we're thinking of her! Thanks for the update.
1stTimeMommy 12-28-2005 Wednesday, 11:19 PM I just logged on to see what was going on and saw that Jenna (also my best friend) has put this prayer request in for our family. It brought tears to my eyes seeing how many people are pulling for us...so many strangers and yet I feel like one of the family. I cannot begin to tell you how much this means to us. To give an update for you, I went back into the doctor today because of some worrisome discharge. The doctor ordered more bloodwork to check my hCG and I have to go in again on Friday for another round, so to speak. We won't find anything out until Tuesday when we return to the doctor's office. Until then, I am still on bedrest. Bedrest sounds like a great idea until about the 3rd day. We pray we are still "with child", but also have come to terms with the reality that this may not be God's will as of now. Not to say we won't be terribly upset, but we can and will accept what He brings upon us. Thank you for the prayers...truly.
laurachelle 12-28-2005 Wednesday, 11:21 PM Thanks for the update. I'm hoping you'll get some good news at your next appointment!
Jenna 12-28-2005 Wednesday, 11:23 PM Just Remember Andrea what our grandmother said to me, God is finding the perfect baby for you and Freddie like he did for Craig and I. If it is not his will remember also I will be there for you both, I love you both tons that words can't even express. I have been there several times and it's hard and I hope and pray everynight that you won't have to know the pain. hugs and kisses to you both.
ChickieShannon 12-28-2005 Wednesday, 11:25 PM Thanks for the update! You and the baby are in my prayers. :hug Take care!
Jenna 12-29-2005 Thursday, 12:26 AM Freddie, Andrea's hubby just called me and they think that she just passed the baby. My heart is breaking so hard for her and Freddie. Please keep them in your prayers. Everything happens for a reason and I know that soon enough they will be parents. I just wished that I could have spared her from the pain of a miscarriage. Andrea if you get on and read this I love you and call me anytime to talk to cry or laugh. XOXOXOXOXOX

1stTimeMommy 12-30-2005 Friday, 06:42 PM I have returned once again. I went in for more blood work this morning to confirm what we already know. Yesterday, they gave me the results from my first bloodwork and my hCG was only 318. They said that level is what a woman who is about 1-2 weeks pregnant would be and we knew we were at least 4 weeks. So, as I said, today was just for confirmation, which we will get on Monday. As much as this hurts, we are doing our best to be positive. We now know we can at least get pregnant, which is what was our original worry. It is strange how, even being barely a month pregnant, I feel such a terrible loss. My father says it's my natural maternal instinct that has already kicked in, with me feeling so out of control in not being able to help my baby. Overall, I think I am doing better than I figured I ever would, not to say that I definitely have my moments. Thank you for your prayers and thoughts. I know this is why I feel more peace in my heart than pain. I already love you all.

Krysta 12-30-2005 Friday, 06:48 PM Andrea, I am so sorry to hear that update. :(
I ahve been thinking about you and waiting to hear some news.
Please- no matter what happens with your baby, stick around. We have a few other DAM's that are not moms quite yet- and we love them just the same.
We are here to support you, and to be a shoulder through this tough time. Several of our moms have lost babies at different stages, and know what you're going through. I am sure some of them would be willing to chat with you, if you needed to!
Keep us posted! :hug And more importantly: take care of yourself!
ReallyRena 12-30-2005 Friday, 06:50 PM (((HUGS))) TO YOU!!! It doesn't matter how far along!!! we are here for you!
1stTimeMommy 12-30-2005 Friday, 07:22 PM Hugs to All...Thank you from the bottom of our hearts...truly.
Jenna 12-30-2005 Friday, 08:20 PM Andi I love you signature- never never never never give up. If I did even after all the years and heartache I wouldn't have Charlie and Alison. I love you lady! bueno!
kelbel 12-30-2005 Friday, 11:01 PM I am very sorry for your loss. I'm praying for you & your family as you go thru this difficult time. :hug
Astreia 12-30-2005 Friday, 11:07 PM I am so very very sorry for your loss. Please know that you have a great group of ladies here who are more than willing to help you. So glad to hear that you're not giving up hope.

We are here for you, whatever you need.
HollyGirl 12-31-2005 Saturday, 07:08 AM I'm so sorry.
Julia 12-31-2005 Saturday, 08:48 AM It is strange how, even being barely a month pregnant, I feel such a terrible loss.
Not strange at all. I felt the same way when I lost my second pregnancy (I've been pg three time). You just never think that the 1 in 4 pregnancies that end in miscarriage will be yours, but the statistic is fairly high. Now that you miscarried, think of it as a 3 in 4 chance that you won't miscarry the next time. You are already on the way with your positive thinking I see in your signature.
Take some time to nurse your heart and if it makes you feel better do a little something for this baby. One of the moms on the board bought an angel ornament to mark her loss. I chose to take the two names I was considering off the list for the next pregnancy. Just an idea.
Journaling is a wonderful thing - you could write this baby a letter and share it with you husband (men are pretty stoic for us, but they feel loss too).
:grouphug
You will know when your heart is ready to try again. Let us know, so we can send you fertility vibes. :thumb

1stTimeMommy 01-03-2006 Tuesday, 05:02 PM OK ladies, I know something crazy is definitely going on with this body of mine. I went in today to get the expected confirmation of our loss...BUT instead they checked my hCG level from Friday's test and it was 345, which is 27 points higher than Wednesday's results! So, I had to go in again today to get MORE bloodwork done, so they can see what is going on now. The doc said if I was losing or had lost the baby, then the numbers should be significantly smaller, or vice versa if everything was ok. They are not sure what to think as of yet. They said an ectopic pregnancy is probably not the case, because by now I would be severely hurting. AND as far as the MC, they said my body is not reacting normally, as far as the bleeding (or lack thereof) and my hormone levels, etc. I only bleed when I am up and about, as long as I am resting...nothing. The only thing that has sounded somewhat normal so far was from a girlfriend of mine. She said she MC and had a D and C, however they did not get everything out when they did the procedure. So, for awhile her body thought she was still pregnant and continued or tried to continue making the hormones needed until she finally passed everything. So, once again, we are playing the waiting game. The doc said technically I could still be pregnant, but then if that is the case, my baby is developing slowly?? Will something probably be wrong with him? And what did I pass then? It's just so frustrating not knowing and having to keep waiting while my body tries to decide what to do. If anyone has gone through this, or knows anyone who has, or just anything, please help.
1stTimeMommy 01-03-2006 Tuesday, 05:35 PM Moving updates to Pregnancy forum. Thanks for everyone's support.
Chelsea 01-03-2006 Tuesday, 05:37 PM You continue to be in my prayers. I hope you get some answers soon. Please keep us updated!
RyliesMomma 01-03-2006 Tuesday, 05:41 PM :grouphug :grouphug Much love and hugs to you:grouphug :grouphug
1stTimeMommy 01-04-2006 Wednesday, 08:57 PM Thank you all so much...hugs to all of you, too! Going to the doc on Thursday afternoon, so will let you know as soon as I hear something.
1stTimeMommy 01-08-2006 Sunday, 12:15 AM The official news on our baby is that it stopped growing at about 2-3 weeks. The doc gave me a shot of methotrexate to rid my body of what is left inside. She said this should take care of everything. Very hard and devastating to know I have been carrying my baby around for the last several weeks like this, but I know God has a wonderful plan for us and I am trying to continue to focus on that. Thank you for all of your support and prayers.
Chelsea 01-08-2006 Sunday, 10:41 AM I am really sorry. You will continue to be in my prayers.
laurachelle 01-08-2006 Sunday, 10:46 AM I'm so very sorry for your loss. :(
