Kiss
Thank you sooooooooooooooo much sweetness for the advice. I'm so all over that at my next appointment with my OB to get to the bottom of this issue. Need to give my baby what my baby deserves. :) Even it means adding more vitamins to my geriatric looking pill box in the a.m. Geesh. Back to Dancing with the Stars. Rub that belly for me! xo

I’m With You
Hey Allison. I just joined that Blood Clotting Disorder group and saw one of your post and thought the same thing. Only baby aspirin and no lovenox/heparin. But that's what the doctor said. But I wanted to pick your brain on something else...folic acid? Did they ever up your dose of that? I'm seeing on the internet that some women with blood clot disorders are encouraged to take more FA. I called my dr. and she said that the 800mcg that my prenatal provides is enough. What do you think?
Funny how none of us rely 100% on what our doctors tell us...we trust each other more. What a blessing to have that. And you're at the front of our choo-choo train...and I can't wait until you arrive at the station cause it means that we all have a better chance of doinging the same. Thank you for the inspiration.
Big huggies to you,

Hug
Allison,I wish I had some magic words for you that would make it easier. The end is the hardest test I think I have ever had-even harder than losing Faith because now we know what it's like and what we can lose. That night that Hope did that scared the life out of me. From then on I was physically and emotionally drained. I focused on getting to each appt. After an appt I would thrive on the brief moments of peace. Night time was awful-like you I would wake up often sometimes every 30 mins to do kickcounts. I would write journals to Faith and Hope when I couldn't sleep. I would try to envision Hope's birthday as a celebration. I would try to think of all the people there all happy and the room full of laughter and Hope's cry. I talked to Faith and Hope constantly. Believing in Faith got me through those weeks. I focused on signs from her like butterflies from her to remind me that she was involved in the outcome. I believed in the connection between Faith and Hope.It is so hard sweetie. Try to stay tuned into Christian. I hope I didn't scare you more. I know you are strong enough to get to the end and the beginning of your life with Christian's baby brother. I'm praying for you. Hugs,Cynthia

Close Stillbirth
I lost my beautiful son Christian on Dec. 16th 2008 due to a cord accident. I woke up at 8:23 p.m. on that evening and my baby wasn't moving. Twenty minutes later, I rushed to the hospital where I was told that there wasn't a heartbeat. At 3:13 a.m. on Dec. 18th I gave birth to my beautiful angel. He weighed 6 lbs 10 ounces and he was the most beautiful thing I had ever laid my eyes on. He was my firstborn child.

Open Pregnancy After Loss/Infertility
My name is Allison and I am 31 years old. I lost my firstborn son Christian on Dec. 18th, 2008 at 38 weeks pregnant due to an umbilical cord accident. He was a beautiful, healthy, 7lb. baby. I just found out last night that I am pregnant again, and 4 weeks along, due in mid January. I am excited, but nervous at the same time.
