Update on my DILs pregnancy. My DIL went to the Dr for a stage II ultrasound yesterday because of the placenta separation. The baby is a healthy little boy but smaller than the Dr expected. This was fantastic news but then the bad news came. There is a problem with the umbilical cord called velamentous cord insertion. It means that the cord is attached to the placenta incorrectly and the blood vessels are not completely encased in the protective whartons jelly (I think that is what they called it) The blood vessels feeding the baby are exposed and could rupture causing the baby to bleed to death in a matter of moments. The doctor said my DIL will need an early c-section and cannot go into labor as the labor would cause the vessels to rupture. Would you please continue to pray, hope and wish for a successful pregnancy and delivery. Thank you all so very much for all the support you have so generously given. You are appreciated more than I can express. Hugs, Barba

Thank you! My DIL and son have asked everyone not to get any baby items for them prior to the birth. They said it would make it more difficult if something goes wrong. My heart aches for them! Hugs, Barba
Barba, still praying daily. God expects us to pray BOLD prayers. He is able to do all and not to pray boldly is insulting to his greatness. I'm praying boldly for this child.

Barba, My prayers are with your DIL and you. I know how that ache in your heart feels. My niece,s baby died in the womb today at 37 weeks. Nothing prepares you for the loss of a child. I pray that your little one will continue to grow and be healthy. Hugs Cindy B

Barba and Cindy B - my heart is heavy for both of you right now, knowing that you can't do anything but just be there for your 'children'. Your love and just being there will carry your young ones through this awful time.
Thoughts of support and comfort are winging their way around the world from way DownUnder for both you and your families.

This little one is in Gods hands. So far he is growing and we can only pray that he will continue till the day of the C-Section. We pray that none of the possible complications will happen and he will enter this world healthy.

We should never take a pregnancy and delivery for granted should we. I'm praying this little guy will grow stronger and everything will work well for him and his big family who already loves him. Waiting is so hard, and that is exactly what he needs - time to grow :-) I will be praying. a hug for you, Jan

My dear Barba, I know I replied to this when you first posted, maybe I didn't hit 'submit'. This must be such a scary time for all of you, I do understand about them not wanting baby things until this dear little one is actually in their arms. It's so unnerving to hear these problems of an unborn baby, yet, if we have the technology to know it's a problem, at least they can prepare for an early C-section and the doctors know what they are facing, and how to deal with it. Years ago it would not have been possible, and the outcome might have been very bad. So I will praise Heaven for letting us keep learning to heal better, and pray for the safe delivery of this precious little one. And pray for peace for you and the kids as well, that you may relax into the loving arms of God and know all will be as God wills. Very big hugs, Marji

Thank you, I am doing my best which some days is not that good but I try not to let anyone know. I keep my weak moments for when I go to bed at night and do a lot of praying for strength the next day. Thanks with hugs, Barba
