Beloved – A New Devotional for Young Women

Tight places... Fun faces
Has less space
But don't worry fellows
We've got lots of pillows!
Tragedy
It is with a heavy heart we share the news of our miscarriage. This one has been especially hard, since this indicates there may be something going on, as this third occurrence is further than the "statistical norm". We just feel emotionally exhausted, after suffering from hearing the baby's survival percentage change weekly, from 99% to 0% to 40% to 95% to miscarriage.
We would definitely appreciate your prayers.
New Handel Baby!
Thanks to everyone for your thoughts and prayers these last few weeks! We've had quite a emotional roller coaster ride. Three weeks ago Julie took a pregnancy test and it was positive. Given our previous two miscarriages we made an appointment with our doctor right away and she sent us to get some blood test. The test measured Julie's HCG count which was supposed to double over two days. My HCG count actually went down over 2 days - our doctor didn't' have much hope except the fact that she had done a vaginal ultrasound both of the test days and our little baby had grown from a tiny uterine bubble to a definitive yoke and sack. Given the contrasting tests she gave it a 40% chance of viability. Today she did another ultrasound to look for a heartbeat... and there it was! She says our chances are not about 95% that it will be a normal pregnancy!
