Nal,

I am so sorry. I had a lot of miscarriages in my 20's. And now, looking back, I believe they were lyme related.

Please don't feel guilty about your concerns on being pregnant. They were normal concerns.

I will be praying for you as I know its hard to go through.

Hi Nancy
I am so very sorry to hear your bad news, My prayers are with you & the baby.

I have to tell you that ,I was very fertile my whole life and had no issues until after the tickbite. I lost a child( Dr. thought likely twins) early in the pregnancy when I was in my mid thirties around the time I was 1st bitten.
I Never understood how & why till I was diagnosed 7 years later and though at the time of the loss I attributed it to stress in my marriage at the time , I now realize it was Lyme affecting me in this way.. Now I am in some sort of post menopause pretty early in life which sucks too..I am only getting one or to cycles a year..We had planned on maybe having a child.. My current husband & I but do not kno if that will be a possibility. I have grown up children I had when young, But he has none & did want one.. My clock is ticking though due to my age etc..lyme sure didn't help.

I will keep you in my thoughts, take care..
Sandi

But I do remember it being said that God gives you what you can deal with. Accept this as his answer.

You did nothing wrong either way, remember this whatever happens, ok? [kiss]

Nancy,

I am so sorry for your loss. I have had a couple of miscarriages (not Lyme related) and know how devestating it is.

I've always felt that God sends down this little angels to us and sometimes, for whatever reason, these angels aren't supposed to stay with us.

So God takes them back home to Heaven with him.

I will pray for you and your angel and send you all of my positive thoughts.

Oh Nancy,

Words can't even express... I've had several miscarriages plus two healthy children... words just aren't enough...

Such a sorrow as this is a pure as sadness can be; let it be a sacred time to care for yourself and just BE....

You will surely have angels enter your life in new ways. I'm sure your angels are on duty right now and watching over you.

Blessings to you,

tori

Thanks guys. Funny thing is that I didn't think i wanted another baby until I lost one. Weird huh? I had Audrey while dealing with Lyme. I know I can have more children if I decide to. We'll see what happens.

Im in a full miscarriage now. Going in tomorrow (yes, on Christmas eve) to have a blood test repeated.

You guys are the best though-thank you, thank you for the support-has meant so much to me.

Nancy,

I am so sorry. I, too, believe that I miscarried about a week ago. It was very early - maybe 4 weeks or less - without having confirmed that I was pregnant. But I am pretty certain I was. And then pretty certain that I was miscarrying - in a way that we know our bodies pretty well.

I was very nervous about it - with the meds and everything that I was / am on. I went off of most of them when I realized I was probably pregnant, but I still worried about others that it would take time to get off of.

I can't imagine what you are going through, but I know that I was / am fairly sad about it. I look at mine as sort of a blessing in some ways.

I wish I could help, but all I can do is send my best. You can make it through this. We're all here for you. I am sorry.

Sorry if I sound harsh but it probably is for the better, embryos/foetuses that don't make it are mainly not viable. Nature's way of not bringing into the world humans who won't have much of a chance of a good healthy life.

Plus, if you are still battling Lyme...hmmm...not such a great thing to have a baby.

Concentrate on yourself and on your family, good luck
