Hello all. I posted a few weeks ago about my wife and I having a surprise 3rd child. Our first two were fertility assisted and this one was natural and a big surprise. Unfortunately today she started spotting and got into her OB this afternoon. The ultrasound revealed a baby that was only 5 weeks along in week 7. Blood tests confirmed her hCG levels had dropped a lot. She told me the nausea and breast tenderness had gone away this week but didn't think much of it. Now of course she's devastated. We had told immediate family, but that's it. This really sucks. I was just starting to wrap my head around a 3rd child, how to arrange the house for it, looking at mini vans, etc. We're blessed to have our 2 sons, but it's not any easier. My faith helps a bit, maybe God was sparing us from something terrible (danger to my wife/baby later in the pregnancy), I don't know....I'm just at a loss here. And a tiny bit of me is relieved??? Which is terrible to even think about. But I'm just being honest. Still, it doesn't hold a candle to the thought of what might have been....just wanted to vent. Hug your little ones. I know I did tonight. This sucks. A lot. via /r/Parenting https://ift.tt/2mwrK0I
