Well - where do I begin?
Got scanned again this morning & baby appears to be fine, but my fluid hasnt built up since last time (or if it had - I lost it again last night) so im back to square one
The outlook is very poor & i've been given "19 chances out of 20" that I'll lose my baby, the worst thing is... it could happen tomorrow or it might not be until 6wks further down the road. It's the uncertainty that I find hard to deal with.
My consultant recommended I have a termination but I couldnt live with myself knowing that there was the slightest chance my baby would make it.
I have to be monitored twice a week by him for signs of infection & all being well I'll be re-scanned every monday to check for progress.
He's setting me up with a counsellor to give me support as im basically waiting for my baby to die & there's not a damn thing anyone can do about it
I've been broken hearted all day but i've decided that i dont wanna grieve for him until i know for certain that he's gone. I keep telling myself that we we're put onto this planet to have children & the human body is an amazing thing so if there's any way things are going to turn out right I just have to be strong and have faith. I know that stress is bad for us both so I cant afford to let myself fall to pieces.
I'm just gonna have to take it one day at a time & hope i can get through another week without losing any more fluid - so i can at least have some hope for my next scan.
Thank you all for your kind words of support - it really means a lot to me xx
