worst nightmare came true.

Lindsey
I feel like I'm dreaming. Went to our 11 week chek up yesterday expecting to see our little miracle and hear the heartbeat. When the doc tried to use the doppler she couldn't find the heartbeat so we did an ultrasound. I immediately start crying because I know I don't see what I'm supposed to be seeing. No heartbeat and the baby was too small to be 11 weeks. The doctor stopped. Turned on the lights. Took my hand and said, " Okay, I'm so sorry but I'm not seeing what I was hoping to see here. However, in these situations I always get a second opinion." She sends us to the hospital for a STAT ultrasound. My worst nightmare was confirmed. No heartbeat. No growth after 9 weeks. No movement. It felt like in that moment, my heart broke into a million pieces. How? Why? Just a few weeks earlier we had a tiny healthy little baby. The doc said it was probably a chromosomal problem. We had three options, take medicine to help my body pass the baby and tissue, wait for my body to do it on its own, or a D&C. We chose option three and the doctor suggested that as well since I was a little further along. I had a D&C this morning. I would never wish this kind of heartbreak on my worst enemy. So many things were already planned, ppl were told and we were happy. All I'm asking for is prayers. 💔 "Their tiny feet go before us to teach us the way home."
