I really wish we had kept it in there a little longer.
Tuesday we had our doctors appointment, and an ultrasound, our second one. We saw a heartbeat at the 7 week ultrasound, but this time there wasn't one to be found. This is all a little new to me, you know what everyone says, I really never thought it would ever happen to me. But, here we are. I'm going in tomorrow morning for a d&c.
After tomorrow we can begin to move forward, but after tomorrow I will no longer be pregnant. It will probably be a very long and draining day. We're doing alright, and have come to terms with this. I know that when we decide to have another baby it will, more likely than not, happen quickly and be another wonderful pregnancy.
Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers.

We will for sure be praying for you and hoping that all goes well for you tomorrow!
Sorry for your loss, we are thinking of you both.
You'll be in our prayers. Let me know if you need ANYTHING!
Thinking of you guys! Having just gone through this just make sure you get some rest and take the time you need for yourself! Call if you need anything. So Sorry you have to even go through this.
I am so sorry for your loss too. You and your family will be in our prayers. Please let me know if you need anything.
My heart has been heavy since I talked to you earlier today. I am so sorry you are having to go through this, and I am so sorry I was out of town and couldn't be there for you like you have been for me time after time. I just wish I could have given you a hug, taken the girls, or brought you treats. All things you have done for me when I have needed them. Count on me for dinner tomorrow night. Sean even said he'd make the flank steaks if it would make you happy. We are praying for you and know you will get through this. Please let me know ANYTHING I can do. Call me any minute you need to talk. Love, Allie
I know I've already said this, but I sure do love ya, April and I have been thinking about you & praying for you since I heard the news on Tuesday!
Wish there was something I could do to take the hurt away! Please know that I am here for you and would do anything for you!
Do you want/need dinner tomorrow night? I was going to offer to take your girls but you may have already heard that Savannah started throwing up yesterday morning and is still running a fever today, so I will keep the sickies away from you. I would be more than happy to do dinner though. Let me know! Love ya~
April, I'm so sorry to hear this news. When I read it, my heart sank for you and your family. It's a sad, and hard thing to go through. We suffered two miscarriages before being able to sustain the pregnancy with Lily. The first one we had was at my 12 week ultrasound. The first appt., we saw and heard the heart beat, the second appt., we went in expecting to see this growing thriving baby, and there was no heartbeat. The second miscarriage happened at a little over 5 weeks. It's a horrible thing to go through, and something that is so hard on a woman. I had a hard time with mine, and was so confused as to why the miscarriages happened. Finally, with Lily I was put on Progesterone at 4.5 weeks and was on it until 15 weeks. You never know why things happen, but as time goes on and you see things happen, you start to wonder if that's why it happened. You get what I mean?
April, you guys will be in my prayers as you go through this, and dealing with everything that accompanies the D&C, and afterwards. Again, I'm so sorry this had to happen, and I hope that you do well w/ the D&C. I feel for you, and also for your family. Having a baby is such an exciting time, and than when something like this happens, your stuck wondering: "Why." Please know that Heavenly Father loves you and feels your pain. He is there for you guys, and only he knows why things have to happen the way they do.
You guys will be in our thoughts and prayers.
I don't know if you remember me April, but I was friend with Kristen Hinton-Heppler at Ricks. I found your blog through HER blog and have enjoyed looking at your fabulous pictures and reading all of your fun adventures.
I am so sorry for your loss. I will keep you and your family in my thoughts and prayers. Take care April!
We're thinking and praying for you today April. I hope all goes smoothly for you. Again, I'm so sorry, and I hope you call me if you ever think it would help. After today the worst should be behind you for the most part, and you'll be able to continue to move forward. Just let me know if you need anything! I was going to make Chocolate, chocolate chip cookies for you too, but I didn't want you to think I thought of you as the type to "eat away your hurt." :) But I would want them, so if you do feel you need a chocolate treat just say the word! Love ya!
Thinking of you today!!! :) I know this sounds cheesey but I felt like the only one that understood and that could give me peace, when I went through this, was my Heavenly Father. I felt as though his arms surrounded me in a big hug and it gave me such comfort. I am sooo in awe that you are able to blog about this. You are soooo tough!!! I LOVE you tons!!!
Thanks a ton to all of you, your words really have been a comfort to me. The d&c went well, and I'm feeling fine, it went much better than I would have thought,(not that I ever want to experience it again).
Kate, I'm not tough, believe me, I did not want to blog about this. But, since I had announced the pregnancy, I thought I should announce the end of it as well.
Thank you everyone!
April I am so, so sorry. That is such a difficult thing to go through. Our prayers are with you.
April,
I am a little slow these days and just read your post. I am so sorry for the difficult week you have had. You will be in my prayers.
I know this probably isn't an easy time, but Just know that we're thinking of you!
I'm so sorry for your loss. You are in my prayers. You are an amazing woman.
I am so sorry, it's not a very easy thing to deal with (I know first hand) but you are strong and will make it through. Love ya and my prayers are with you guys!!
