I am so sorry to hear this Erica!! I will be praying for you and your husband. I also went through this experience before, and it's not easy!! My prayers are with ya!!! ((((Hugs))))

Hi Erica. I too lost a baby-- and I went full term. It happened 34 years ago and I will always remember that painful time. If you decide to try again (and you should), remember to give yourself some time before trying again and make sure the OBGYN monitors you closely. I'm very sorry for your loss but I'm pretty sure that weight loss surgery only helps you to get pregnant instead of hindering you. Just know that there are lots of people out there that have experienced a similar loss and that they have gone on to have a healthy baby and wonderful future. While the baby I lost will always be a part of me, I also have a wonderful baby girl that was healthy and is now 20 years old. She weighed 10 pounds and 1/3 oz and was 22 inches long. I remember asking my husband in the delivery room if she had all her fingers and toes because I was sure God didn't want me to have a baby. He said of course she does and she's all beautiful and rosy and gorgeous. So we can't question why things like this happen. They happen and we have to move forward while not forgetting our lost loved one. I wish you all the best life has to offer. Alice From Dallas 11/10/04 285/165

Oh Erica I am so sorry to hear that. Please, please don't blame yourself..you are right God had other plans for your little angel. I am keeping you in my prayers. Lori

Guys, Thanks so much for being so kind! Unfortunately, we just lost the baby yesterday. We are very upset and part of me wonders if it's because I had the surgery, but I also know that there are tons of women who are post op who have gotten pg and had very healthy babies, so I just have to accept that God had other plans for this little one. My first son passed away when I was 23.5 weeks along, so I know he is taking care of this baby until we can be with them again. Thanks again for your support and prayers. God bless! Erica

Sheesh I am happy for you but I hope that's not my reason!!! My baby is 18 years old!!!! Come on scale, come on scale, come on scale. Congrats on your new baby. Lori 241/231/147/136
