Very Sad News

Today was a very sad day. I had an ultrasound this morning, Peter went with me and our friend Emily watched Brynt for us. The ultrasound showed a baby that was no larger than 6 weeks old, and I should be 10 weeks this week. There was also no heartbeat. The Dr. said that I had a missed miscarriage. That my body still thinks I am pregnant, but the baby is no longer alive. If I do not have a miscarriage by this weekend, I will need to go in for a D&C. A procedure where I would have to go into the hospital, get put to sleep, and they clean the uterus out. It's hard on your body and is not an easy recovery. Please be praying for us, as this is not an easy time. We are heartbroken. We have faith that God has a plan for us, but its still very hard.

I am here for you always! It is very expected t be sad and grieve over something like this, but it is leaning on friends that love you, like me, and leaning on God that will get you through it. Let me know if there is anything else I can do for you! My heart aches for you.
