Its so important to keep your pre-natal appointmen

After two miscarriages and uterus surgery I thank g-d was able to get pregnant again. At my 34rth week regular check up with my OB, I was diagnosed with preeclampsia. I had protein in my urine, high blood pressure, swelling in my feet, hands.... I was send to the hopspital immediately for monitoring. The doctors there monitored me overnight and released me with strict instructions to see my OB the vey next day. When I went to the visit, my symptoms had already worsened and I was sent back to the hospital to determine the next step. Since I was still in my 34rth week, my doctor had advised me that he wanted to wait as long as he could to give the baby a chance to develop further before they delivered me. The policy they stood by was as long as the benefits outweighed the possibility of danger to mother and child. Withing 1 day my conditioned had worsened and I developed Toxemia and the HELLP syndrome. I had an emergency c-section right away. Thankfully my son and I were just fine.
I am sharing my story so that everyone knows how important it is to keep every prenatal appointment. If I had skipped that appointment, I cannot imagine what might of happened. I would have never know I had this condition, it would have rapidly gone down hill, I would have ended up seizing...and who knows what would have happened.

Not everything happens for the worst.

I was having trouble getting pregnant in the previous years then when i finally did i ended up having a miscarrage due to stress after that i tried again for anouther five years and finally ended up gatting pregant. I was 8 weeks when the doctor said the baby had lost it's heart beat. I was so upset. After that I thought it was just not ment to be so I just gave up. Well about 4 months later I ended up getting pregnant and I am due in 9 days. I am having a boy!! So not evertthing happens for the worst it happens for a reason. Good Luck to anyone who is trying to have a baby.

Hydrops & Downs

Hi my wife was 24 weeks pregnant and we lost our little angel. All tests up and till the 24 weeks was fine, no Downs or abnomalities were detected. On 24 weeks we discovered during our normal 24 weeks check up that our child had Hydrops and the Dr's performed more test and we discovered that our little bot had Downs as well with little chance of making it to 30 weeks. Total devastation. We miss you boy and Mommy and Daddy love you dearly. This happened 1 week ago.

My name is J.C. and i got pregnant when i was 12 yrs old i was 7 months when my mama finally found out the baby's father didm't claim her at all. My mama wouldn't take me to the doctor and my step daddy was a big help.Well when i was at school only one friend knew i was pregnant until the it happened this boy was playing and hit me in my stomach and killed my baby right there in the hallway without knowing it. Now the boy is locked up they gave him 5 yrs in jdc because he didn't know i was pregnant but he shouldn't have hit me. Now i am 15 yrs old and today is my baby's death anniversary she is my dead love but please teens don't have kids cause they lead to problems and heartache. Also love and satisfaction but it depends on your situation.
