Default Thinking of you Rachelle

I've been thinking of you and your family and hoping you're doing OK during this difficult time. Hugs and prayers for all of you. I know you'll have a sibling for little Shelly someday soon. Keep the faith!

thanks jane. it's been rough. i just got back from yet another u/s and it was clear so no D&C this time around. i had to take cytotec twice but it did the job this time (in December it didn't). i'm not sure what we will do next. embryo adoption or traditional adoption. i'll give myself a little rest before i dive into that stuff. i don't know how dh will be or how fast he will want to move. he is notoriously slow in deciding to do anything, let alone this big. for now i have shelly who is such a sweetheart. at the YMCA today, the babysitters said how wonderful she is w/ the babies and how she'll be such a good big sister. i pray she is sooner rather than later as i didn't want the kids so far apart. oh well, they will be now.

i think i have your email but PM me it again so i can keep in touch

Rachelle, your kids wont be far apart, MINE are far apart 11.5 years!!

Take some time and I know you will make the best choice for you and your family

I am glad the cytotec worked this time and you didnt need the dnc.

I was worried about having my kids too far apart too. It turns out that the four year separation was even better than the three years for me! Who knew?

I've been thinking of you a lot, too. I'm glad you are going to give yourself a little chance to breathe. I know you are going to find your way to your next baby, however you do it. God's got you all in his hand and his perfect plan for you will happen. And Shelly will be a fantastic BIG SISTER!
