Title: Prayers for my wife and I
Post by: Chris M on November 14, 2007, 03:39 PM
It's odd how quickly life can change. I have been so excited the past 4 months that my wife was going to give birth to our first child in May. We went to the doctor on Monday for a checkup and sonogram. The sonogram showed the heartbeat we had seen in the previous two was no longer there. So this morning my wife had surgery and thankfully is resting now after the two of us have been pretty much sleepless since Monday morning.

For those of you that pray, please do so. We were so excited and thought we were out of the "dark" time of pregnancy only to have this happen. Only those who have had this happen or have kids can understand how truly devastated we are.  Sadly the next time she gets pregnant, we are going to have a constant fear hanging over us.

I'm really sorry to hear that Chris.  :'(

I remember how hard that can be. My mom had two miscarrages, one before I was born and another between my brother and sister. I was still pretty young at the time so I didn't completely understand what happened other than my mom and dad were very sad. I'm hoping for the best for you and the wife.

Chris,

Just wanted to add my condolences to you and your wife.  I'm sure words offer little comfort at a time like this, but we will definitely add your family to our prayers.  My wife and I struggled for a long time to have children and now that we do, I can't imagine what life would be like without them.  Just know that one way or another, you will find a way to bring children into your home and take comfort in the fact that you still have each other.  Best wishes and hope for the future!

Justin

Chris, I am very sorry for your loss, and being a parent this hits me hard. 

My prayers go to you and your entire family during this difficult time.  It's never easy understanding why these things happen or coming to terms with them, but please do your best to take care of yourself and your wife as you go through this emotional time.  If you ever want to chat please shoot me a PM.  God Bless, and your family is in my prayers.

I'm so sorry. I know this is so difficult for you both. I hope the prayers and positive thoughts that are coming your way are making a difference and helping you somehow. It will take a long time to get over this, but I hope you both will, and that you will have the child you want someday.

Yeah, I'm really sorry to hear about this as well, and my thoughts and prayers will be with you and the Mrs., Chris.

My sister miscarried last month, and we've had two other close friends do the same recently.  It's unfortunately a more common thing than many people realize.  We know two others who have miscarried, who both wound up having perfectly healthy babies the very next year, so hopefully that's what'll happen for you guys as well.  Hang in there...

Wow Chris you brought a tear to my eye, my wife and I went through the same thing a year ago come Sept. 23rd.  Tore me apart as I've been fortunate to not really lose anybody that close to me since I was a child.  We'd already had 2 beautiful/healthy daughters before and never thought something would/could go wrong.  I had never been so angry in all my life, but no where to direct it.  But as much as it might hurt now, you will heal and you MUST try again.  Thanksgiving Day our brand new baby boy will be a month old and we couldn't be happier.  Point being you are healthy your wife is healthy and be thankful that you can, in fact, try again.  If there is anything, talk whatever I would be happy to help in anyway I could.

My sister went through this and she nearly went off the deep end, it was touch and go there for a while, however she did recover, and went onto have my healthy basketball playing nephew and hes into boxing as well, hes the tallest in the family, so basically what I am saying is dont give up hope, I know at the min it feels as if your entire world has just fell out your arse, but it will get better and like the post said before me your both healthy so if you want you can both try again and hopefully will conceive again and this time it will be a bouncing bundle of trouble.

So hang on in there the two of you and support each other, through this trying of times.

And hopefullly things will improve.
