27 Weeks and counting....


Today was our 27 weeks checkup and glucose test (I also got a flu shot).  Baby girl's heartbeat is a strong 150 bpm! Dr. Moore said he loves nothing more than a BORING pregnancy! I thought... hmmm, boring for who? But I know that he meant that everything was normal!  From here on out I will be seeing the Dr. every two weeks.  Here's an update on her progress:

Your baby is getting more active and attentive
Week 27: Your baby begins to recognize the sound of your voice
Your baby gets very active at 27 weeks, and you’ll likely feel it very soon. Here are some other changes she's going through:
  • At Week 27, your baby probably weighs almost 2 pounds, and is about the length of a head of broccoli.
  • Her lungs, liver, and immune system keep maturing.
  • She might know your voice and your partner's voice.
  • During Week 27, your baby is as much as four times longer than she was during the 12th week of pregnancy.

I saw you in a dream...

  Madison Sophia Young Born into Heaven Sunday, November 18, 2012 I saw you in a dream Before you were real I can't explain the way I feel Don't ask me to try It makes my heart cry Love created the seed that attached itself to my heart The seed became a life To me became a part The mystery of how it begins we will never know What makes a seed begin to grow What makes a heart begin to beat Growing little hands and little feet What makes it look like you or me Is simply just a mystery The cosmic force that makes me whole Is bound up in your little soul You hold my hand from inside out I feel you turn and dance about I don't know what's in God's plan He took you by your tiny hand Your beautiful little angle face Is now a part of time and space Your purest soul that's ever been Will never ever be touched by sin I cry, I weep, I cannot sleep I think what might have been Thank you for the joy you...

"So, how's the baby?"

It amazes me how different peoples reactions are when I tell them I lost my baby. All in all I've only had to answer this question about six times. I know that it doesn't sound like an awful lot but each one still manages to throw me into a funk. Yesterday, three people, today one. I play these conversations over and over in my head and wonder how the other person took the news. It all starts with a sweet, innocent gesture, a simple: "So, how's the baby?" I reply, "Unfortunately, we lost her". If you can imagine the look of someone seeing a ghost, that's about the look I receive. I've heard: "I'm so sorry", "God Bless You", "that's not the answer that I was expecting" "Oh, I totally forgot!" (guessing this person knew and asked without thinking?!?) Some people blush and look like they want to run away, some gave me a hug, some say they will keep me in their prayers. And before you know ...

Due Date

Welcome to 2013.....2013, the year we were so excited to become parents, have a family and welcome our daughter Madison into the world. When you first find out your "due date" the day is forever engraved in your mind, your body, and your soul. You tell everyone the date and circle every calendar that you own. You count down the weeks until your due date and say it countless times as it's usually the first thing someone asks you when they find out that you're pregnant.  For us January 10, 2013 is that date. There is no guarantee that she would have actually been born on this exact date, but as this date gets closer I can't stop wondering when her actual date of arrival would have been.  January 10th, it seemed like a lifetime away when I saw my first positive pregnancy test on May 4th 2012. I have to say that the 32 and 1/2 weeks that I was pregnant flew by very quickly.... and here we are now into January and I feel this empty feeling inside as I...
