About Me

I'm 29 years old on the verge of turning 30 September 2008. My husband and I agreed that I would get pregnant before my 30th birthday. My plan came to an end July 3, 2008. I knew I was a high risk prego, because I previously had a miscarriage November 2007 between the 11-12the week. My MD dx me w/ having an incompetent cervix. In April I confirmed that I was pregnant again, so the doctor decided that a cerclage was the best thing for me. We agreed to do it at 11 weeks. Two weeks later my water broke @ 13 weeks and 6 days. What is most disappointing is that the baby still had a heartbeat and seemed to be going strong. I just need to know why my water broke? What is wrong w/ me? I'm confused, lonely and hurt all at the same time. My life changed over night..... My husband got a job in a new city, but I remained behind because of the pregnancy and agreed to continue working. The doctor felt that it was fine. My job is sedentary. Now, plans have changed. I have to leave my job and move w/ my husband to a new city. I have to start over again w/ a new doctor and find a fertility specialist. The specialist are few and far between due to our new home being a smaller town. Right now life sucks. My husband wants me to stay at home but I think I just might lose my mind. I've been working since I've graduated, in fact supporting him while he was in school. It is very difficult to accept the fact that I now have to depend on someone else. I feel helpless and hopeless. In addition, the city we are in is not particularly good for my line of work. The plan was for me to remain in our old home until we had the baby. Once I had the baby I would move home and be a stay at home mom for a while. This would keep me busy. Now....??? I have no clue. Everyday I ask God for strength to get me through this difficult time. It seems like the days are longer. I have a difficult time being around people and babies. Thanks for reading my story.
