How do you find hope?

Question

Supposed to be 8weeks tomorrow and the doctor just called and said my levels are going up but not how she wants. She said a second miscarriage is inevitable. I don't know what's worse at this point, trying to hold out hope that since the levels are going up she's wrong or give up and let go of the hope? 
Any success stories or prayers would be greatly appreciated at this point. I just don't know anymore.

Answer

I'm praying for you too. This isn't really a success story but... I was almost 16 weeks pregnant with my first. I work 3rd shift on the weekends. I went in for my shift and got bad stomach pains (they were contractions but I didn't know it). When I went to the bathroom a sac started to come out, it was my water sac. I was taken to the ER. The whole time I was just praying and hoping that nothing was wrong with my baby. If I cried it meant it was true that I was losing my precious little one who I've always loved, so I didn't. I just prayed and prayed that everything was alright, I had to though. The couldn't hear the heartbeat but I still had faith.  After we had an ultrasound and the doctor eventually told us that our baby had passed and that there was no fluid around the baby. I don't like crying in front of people but the tears just kept coming. We went home and had to go back the next day where I was induced into labor. Our baby was born with some of the organs outside the stomach. With that being said, sometimes when we pray for the things to happen, it does happen just not the way we wanted. We prayed for our baby's health and safety. God is merciful. Our baby would have been in pain and would have to have many surgeries. But now our baby isn't in any pain and won't have to suffer. I would do anything to have my baby here and pay any amount of money.  I am able to find peace in knowing that my baby isn't in pain or suffering but it still hurts and I still cry and it's still hard. I'm sorry that you have to go through that pain but I hope you will be able to find comfort in the Lord. :)

You're in my prayers.
