Ok, before I being to go on and on about my feeling I need to bring everyone up to speed. Our Best Friends have been trying to get pregnant for over 3 years now, and have experienced 3 or more miscarriages and at least 2 tubal pregnancies. This time however was different, she was able to get pregnant and she is now 22 weeks 5 days ;o) We are completely estatic and happy for them and could not be more thrilled that she has made it this far and they are going to have a baby by the end of this year. Now, mind you these friends have also been there for us going through the death of Evan and seeing us day after day going to the hospital to see Ethan.......now on to my vent and major concerns!!! I dont think I would be so upset if I didnt care so much and Im reliving my prengnacy all over again every time I think of her, and here is why......
Like I said she is now 22 wks 5 days, and has just been taking off work because she is having minor contractions they are not affecting her cervix however they are enough for the Dr to be worried about and tell her to REST as mush cas possible and no more work. She is now taking the same medication I was on when I was 20 wks pregnant and I started having contractions. She has also been referred to the Specialist, that let my precious Evan die. As soon as I found out I have been so scared for her because she still has a week and a half before the vital week and even then its like a 50/50 chance of survival. With this being said, I wrote her a text and said I couldnt believe what is happening but the good news is that some woman can go til 40wks on those meds, but you need to take it easy, drink lots of water, not alot of walking, and start drinking the boost protein drinks to help Brett(the baby's name) grow faster. She listened to us of coarse but now is going to go to Soak City tomorrow and my heart is just broken. Soak City is an amusement park that will require lots of walking and its suppose to be in the 100's tomorrow. I DONT understand why someone who has seen all that we have went thru and been there for us and everything that she has gone thru herself, would even right going. I know she doesnt want to make her 6 yr old son sad because they cant go but if shes already having contractions I think it needs to be taken very very serious and if it were me I wouldnt be moving much at all besides from the bed to the couch. Im just so upset that they would even consider it at take that chance to put Brett in harm. I know its not me and I cant do anything but give my opinion and I know it wont be our fault if something does happen....but WHY wouldnt you listen to us!! Why wouldnt you think about your unborn child before thinking of anyone else in this WORLD!!! I just dont even know what to say to them anymore besides ok have fun and to check on her every once in a while to make sure shes ok. I JUST DONT GET IT.
Well thank you for letting me vent, and also keep them in your thoughts and prayers we need to get her to at least the 30 wks in ordr to try to minimized all the complications. Just because Ethan didnt have very many health problems doesnt mean every baby is like that, many ARE NOT!!! Well good night thanks for listening again!!
