Pregnancy Info HOME

This is why i want to wait!!!! because of stories like the one below. I REFUSE TO GET THE d&c!!!!!!!!!! i have to fly to my home country in June and the Dr said it's very dangerous to fly like this, that i could hemorage badly...at this point i don't care if it kills me, i will not get the d&c. i might sound crazy....but it will break my heart if i found out that i shouldn't have had the d&c.

This is a letter that I sent to a new friend here that I met today on the phone. We share so much in common and today I got my prayers answered...

Hi there. I read your story and Im going thru the same thing with my doc. I am preg with my 5th child and found out at 6 weeks and they confirmed with a US and found no fetal pole just the sack and water. My HCG level was 1900 My doc said that with a 98% that I will m/c. Because with levels that high there WOULD be a fetal pole! My HGC levals were normal so far and Im waiting it out till something happens. I started to spot today just a tiny bit, I got nervouse and called the doc and he wants to US again tomarrow and said he can let me know with 100% certainty IF there is a baby or not. He thinks it is already over... I can't live my life without hope...Im a hair over 7 weeks now and I am going AMA and going to let my body do whats right for itself will I think that I am in harms way. As of the last 6 hours the spotting has stopped and im praying really hard.If this is meant to be then it is meant to be but IF i can give this child one last hope, then is that not our job as the mother to do so? I think so !

Please write me back asap. I need to know how things turned out for you and ANY thing that you can maybe tell me to help my situation would be great. God bless you and your choices and all your loved ones.

TODAY I HAD MY ULTRASOUND. I ASKED MY TECH TO TELL ME IF THERE WAS ANY SIGN OF A FETAL POLE EVEN IF NOT ALIVE AND SHE LOOKED AROUND AND SAID WELL "HOW ABOUT A HEARTBEAT?" 140 AND TICKING STRONG. THE BABY IS 7 WEEKS AND 2 DAYS AND WAS NOT THERE LAST WEEK AND NOW THERE AND HEALTHY SO FAR.( HIDING PERHAPS OR ???) MY DOC WAS SHOCKED AFTER I RAN STRAIGHT FROM ULTRASOUND BACK TO HIS OFFICE TO SAY "bo'yaaaaa" IN HIS FACE. I want every woman to know that the ONLY way that the tech saw this life growing in me before the Doc wanted to end his life is she put me on a THICK foam wedge under my hips and jacked them up SO high that I thought I was going to get sick. Using a vaginal probe US she was able to find my little "Bean" and the heartbeat was something that I could have stared at forever. Please Please Please Ask for them to do this to you even if they look at you like your weird, INSIST!!! This saved my Unborn child !!!

LADIES DOCTORS ONLY KNOW WHAT MEDICAL SCIENCE KNOWS AND IN MORE CASES THAT IS WONDERFUL. TRUST YOUR OWN BODY AND HEART. WE ARE ULTIMATLY THE ONES THAT GOD HAS ENTRUSTED THESE LITTLE LIVES TO AND IT IS OUR JOB TO BE THE ADVOCATE OF OUR CHILDREN TILL THEY HAVE A VOICE OF THEIR OWN.
MY DOCTOR WAS ONLY GIVING ME THIS UNTRASOUND TODAY TO SHUT ME UP AND PROVE THAT THE BABY DIDNT EXSIST. WHO FOOLED WHO.
GOD BLESS YOU ALL AND PLEASE KEEP JULIE FROM KANSAS IN OUR PRAYERS TONIGHT FOR SHE WILL HAVE ANOTHER US TOMARROW. KEEP STRONG JULIE, KNOW THAT YOU HAVE A NEW FRIEND IN ILLINOIS...
