Prior to the hospital, I was at home on bedrest for 2 months. My issue is also IC and funneling...had a cerclage put in at 15 weeks...thank God the stitches are working! <BR/>I have had two 2nd trimester losses in the past (at 20 weeks and 16 weeks) and do have one 7 year old daughter that is our miracle child. <BR/>I don't know how you are doing now, but if you ever want to share stories and commiserate, just e-mail!<BR/><BR/>mamahaniaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24778307.post-1147987828173232822006-05-18T14:30:00.000-07:002006-05-18T14:30:00.000-07:00I had no idea of what it was like to go through th...I had no idea of what it was like to go through this, Becci.

I believe He will hear your cries and answer them just like Hannah (Samuel's mother) and Rachel and Elizabeth (John the Baptist's mother)!! (Please don't think this is a meaningless "platitude". I really believe it! I'm crying out too...)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24778307.post-1147896983825278392006-05-17T13:16:00.000-07:002006-05-17T13:16:00.000-07:00Wow Sara, I had no idea!

It would make sense being that a lot of the symptoms a baby could have long-term from prematurity are probably similar to if you did drugs during pregnancy. It's definitely one of those things that I want to do everything the dr. says to ensure that she gets here safe. I know he has my interests at heart as well as my baby's.<BR/><BR/>Tonya, thanks for the encouragement. I never really feel strong or inspiring, but I do hope that I can help people with my story and I think this has given me a new vision for the future as far as what I want to do with my life (aside from the obvious about having a family).Beccihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02843445845439279244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24778307.post-1147893007319951672006-05-17T12:10:00.000-07:002006-05-17T12:10:00.000-07:00Thanks for posting these details about IC Becci.. ...Thanks for posting these details about IC Becci.. It has helped me see your situation alot more clearly. I did a little reading online about it once I knew you had it just so I can understand a little bit but thats not the same as it coming from you. <BR/><BR/>Bedrest... Like I have said before I don't know how you do it!! I know why you do it but I know how difficult it must be for you. I was only on it for a day or so.. in hospital before my emergency section and even that bothered me.. of course I was worried about a million things but it still sucked..lol<BR/><BR/>I know you are going to make it.. and yes I have said it over and over but I have faith in you and in your little peanut!! You are going to be a mommy to a living child and that alone will change your life forever.. and although the IC and bedrest and all of the worry and stress will still always be remembered it will be so much different once she is there with you :) <BR/><BR/>You are a very strong and inspiring woman and you are doing a brilliant job!! You just hang in there girl.. although none of us can really know what it is like first hand to be in your shoes we are here for you when you need someone to listen and hopefully give you some encouragement!!<BR/><BR/>*hugs*Tonyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02281227691142336314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24778307.post-1147891514106683852006-05-17T11:45:00.000-07:002006-05-17T11:45:00.000-07:00Hmmm...I like the new, but liked the old too!! Th...Hmmm...I like the new, but liked the old too!! The old was girly girly which I thought was fitting, considering you are having a girly girl!!! <BR/><BR/>I can tell you from what my SIL has told me about bedrest and social workers and whatnot is in Oregon they can nail you with child endangerment if you are not on bedrest when you are supposed to be. My SIL told me that her social worker told her they have actually taken the mother's rights away from her unborn child for not complying with bedrest orders. <BR/><BR/>We all know though that YOU won't have a problem with that one!!!Sarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03922470034890803992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24778307.post-1147866095505260872006-05-17T04:41:00.000-07:002006-05-17T04:41:00.000-07:00Thank you so much for explaining about IC.
