Waiting on a Miracle

Still Here.....always on a Rollercoaster!

Yes, I am still alive....if anyone still checks in here. The "babies" are now 2 & my latest saga is that I am almost 13 weeks PREGNANT!!!!! We are still pretty shocked as this was a TOTAL SURPRISE!

It has not been an easy pregnancy so far. We had 2 scares of miscarriage w/ a trip to the ER. I don't know what I was thinking, but we did the 1st trimester screening & I came back "High Risk" for Down Syndrome. I have a 1/211 chance of a baby with ds. (My NT scan was fine, it was the bloodwork.) I refused the cvs & amnio because of the miscarriage risk.....and now I need to wait until my level II ultrasound at the end of August. I hope and pray that this baby is healthy & chromonally perfect.....but of course I would love any baby. I obviously won't know for sure until January when the baby is (hopefully) born. I still have doubts that my body will keep this little one safe....but I am trying to stay positive.

Well, that is it for now. I just figured I would give an update if anyone was still around...and if anyone has advice on taking care of 3 kids under 2.5 years old, I'd love to hear it!!!!! :)
