Dear Marta,
I'm so sorry to hear about Pedro's passing. I too had a concealed abruption that killed my daughter in December 2014, though at 39 weeks during labour. The fear and lack of trust in your body's ability to keep your baby safe inside is so difficult to live with during a subsequent pregnancy. Keep breathing and taking it one day at a time. Try not to add self recrimination for being afraid during your already stressful pregnancy. Easier said than done, I know. You're doing great. Hang in there.
Sending love

Dear Gaby, dear Emma
thank you so much for your soothing messages!
I'm sorry Gaby that you suffered as well the loss of your darling daughter. And at such late stage.
I do hope that despite the great sadness of our pasts that brought us here to this community, we can find a happier future... eventually...

Oh Marta, I'm so sorry to hear of your loss and I completely understand how stressed you are and apprehensive. I felt the same during my subsequent pregnancy. It was very hard. A quick mantra helped me: breathe,today I am pregnant. It was the best I could do...and then my doctors were very kind. I had an extra ultrasound the week of my loss (they made up a reason for it being necessary)...and the pregnancy threads here were a lifeline. Perhaps you can revive them? Good luck, thinking of you.

He was 2 days away of completing his 34 weeks.
We are currently expecting a new baby boy, today completing 22 w... But I have not yet been able to fully embrace this new joy, because I keep thinking what if things go wrong again this time?
I know it is normal to be afraid, by I Iwish I could be naive again and expect only the happy endings
I wish I could look into my older daughter' eyes and say confidently, you will really have a brother.
