My heart is still broken as I lost my baby girl on February 13th 2013. She was born at 20 weeks. She weighed 15 ounces and was almost 9 inches long. She was diagnosed a few weeks ago with a very large Cystic Hygroma and Fetal Hydrops, her body was so swollen her heart could not handle the swelling. They believe she had Turners Syndrome and we will find out in a few days on what made her so sick. I went into labor naturally and delivered her sleeping my heart aches for her. We held her for about 12 hours. We took lots of pictures and promised her we would try again for another baby. The doctors suggested waiting 3 months. Ive known women that became pregnant 2-3 months after delivering a baby and per research I've read that women are the most fertile after delivering a baby. Not sure if this is true or not. Has anyone had any success right after? And anyone around the same gestation I was? Thanks ladies also if anyone would like to see pictures of my sweet angel Isabelle they are in my 'Pregnancy Journal' (see link in my signature) her skin is red due to how early she is and she has a small bruise on her forehead. In one of the pics you can see part of the Hygroma and you can see by her hands how swollen she was, but she was still so very beautiful to us. We miss her so much!
