Please

I've been so proud of myself. Mr SC commented yesterday also that never in a million years would he have expected me to be like this this time around.


Relaxed. Calm. Not freaking out.


For the record, I've only cried once. I think that's pretty damn good, considering the circumstances.


Today though, I'm six weeks pregnant.


In three of my four losses, I didn't make it to this point without any problems. In my most recent miscarriage in the spring, I started spotting at 6w2d. That's Tuesday. This Tuesday.


I had a dream last night. In all of my losses, I had dreams that I miscarried. The dream last night was very different.


I had a baby. I'm not sure if it was a baby girl or boy but the baby was only a few months old and the dream was me juggling the regular household things (cooking, work for school), baby it tow. The baby also had an ear infection and I was running around trying to find a pediatrician.

Please universe. Powers that be. God. Buddha. Someone. Please let there be a heart beating inside me, other than my own. Please let that little heart keep beating strong until my child dies at the age of ninety years old.


Please let me hold our baby in my arms in July.

  5. You know how hard I'm praying for you..and I think dreams can be prophetic..Mine were, not only the being pregnant part, but the sex of the baby..Oh, I just hope you can see the heart beating beautifully at your next appointment..

  6. I'm hoping that dream is indeed a good sign, like your body knows something deep down that just can't be seen by anyone else yet. (I had eerie dreams too about my pregnancies and miscarriages.) I am hoping and praying for you! One day at a time, right?

  9. I'm praying for you and that little heartbeat! I know just how significant that heartbeat is! Now that I have Ella, I still thank and praise God every night as I feel it beating under my hand on her chest when I put her to sleep.

  12. I am praying for you that this is the one. There has to be a time where all the negative stuff just falls to the wayside and joy takes its place. I am praying this is the time for you - not least because it gives the rest of us with very similar stories the hope we need to go on. Sending you all the good vibes in the world! xx
