Well, I now know why they say not to tell everyone you know that your expecting till 12 weeks...
Last Thursday the 17th I started spotting, not heavily but even a little is too much. I havent had any pain with the spotting but I was concerned so I called the Dr. who had me go to the lab for a blood test to check hormone levels. In the begining of pregnancy these levels double every about every 48 hours. My levels did not even close to double, so I had an ultra sound today which showed us the "embryo" had not developed a yolk therefore does not have its own life support and never even had any cardiac development. So I'll miscarry within the next month but I pray it dosent take that long. Its so small that it should just seem like a really heavy period, I wont need to have a D&C. So its really sad but I am so relieved that I never heard a heart beat then have this happen. Its wierd to see and feel the changes that your body goes through in the begining of a pregnancy and know that I wont get to see my belly get big and round and then push out that little infant. I guess having these feelings means that we arent ready to be done having children, its just not going to be right now.

So sorry to hear of your news Sheri. One of my friends in California had one when she was like 16 weeks along. Soo tough. She said what helped her get through it was knowing that it just wasn't meant to be, and that everything happens for a reason. you are in my thoughts and prayers.
Oh Sherri, I am so sorry! I love your positive attitude about this just not being the right time! We are so lucky to understand that. Your family is in our thoughts and prayers!
Sheir,
I hope all is well, I don't know if you knew but we just went through that I was 12 weeks a long. To make a long story short it was something I wanted over fast and it last almost two months. The lord blesses us in many ways and it helped me to look at my loss as a blessing. Lots of love Oh yea what class is your daughter in at trentwood charlees in preschool there.
WHAT???????
Sheri you are in my prayers. I need to call you. I just found out you left a message on my voicemail. I never check my messages.
Ok- my miscarriage turned out to be one of my biggest heart breaks. It took me a while to digest what happened and what I had just lost. My body really took it hard...I remember just shaking and trembling because my body and spirit were experiencing such pain and sorrow. I really felt a huge loss- a death. It was so hard for about 6 months. I was only 12 weeks along but it was still so incredibly hard to deal with.
I am thankful for prayer and fasting- and the beautiful promises of the gospel. I know through God's love and the atonement I was able to move on and be healed- I love you Sheri. I will call you tomorrow after church ok? Love you. April
