Heartbroken :-(

I went to pick up my offical ultrasound results today and went to see the Dr. The lady yesterday was lovely and showed me the heartbeat, but obviously didn't tell me the full story, I guess they're not supposed to. My Dr looked at the results today and yes there is one healthy little bubba, but there is also a 'non viable second twin' roughly the same size. This was our twins and yet one is dead. At the moment I am just so stunned and confused. Why would God prepare us for years with dreams of twins if we were only ever gonna get to hold one of them? It might seem ungrateful to be sad about losing one baby when there is another healthy one in there, but that was my bubba and I'm heartbroken. I have an appointment to see an obstetrician tomorrow and I guess will find out then what they do now, I don't know if they have to remove it or not. I would really value prayer right now :-(

Oh sweetie, what a yucky thing to go thru!! I am praying for you at this time!! I do know that if the bubba is in Jesus's arms that they will not remove it as it is to risky for your other bubba, they will let your body 'reabsorb it'. I also know of people who have being told one bubba was dead when it was in fact alive. I will be praying for a miracle for you and for God to hold you close at this time. Losing a bubba is heartbreaking!!! I'm so sorry you are walking thru this! Call me if you need a shoulder!!

Love and BIG hugs!

Oh, this is horrible for you. So amazing that you had a dream for years about having twins and then this..... It seems so unfair right now but you need to stay strong for the other baby too. I will hold you in prayer today x
