Our little boy sent from our beautiful angel SKYLA

Hi everyone, well i had my 18wk Morph scan today and everything is fantastic. They got a good look at his heart and all looks good. The sub chorionic hemorrhage that i had seems to have disappeared which is a big relief. They checked to see if he had 2 collarbones, i know that sounds weird but Skyla only had 1. Well he has 2. And no CDH!!! I am so happy. They also did some 3D pics of our little guy today. I ended up taking a photo of them with my phone. I am only 18wks 5days but the 3D pics turned out pretty good considering how early i am. There is two pictures of his face and an awsome one of him kneeling. It looks really cool, oh and a picture just to prove he really is a boy. LOL. They also cancelled the fetal echo that was planned for tuesday 16th Dec and made an appointment for Jan 20th, i will be 24wks by then so the cardiologist should be able to get a good look then but as far as they were concerned today, everything is perfect. Yay.

The closer it is getting to christmas the harder it seems to be getting. I am really missing my baby girl so much. Next Monday is my birthday too. Last year i had my little girl here with me and she was doing so well. We were at the ward and she wasnt even on any oxygen. We were thinking we were going home. God how i miss her so much. We love you Skyla. Thankyou for looking out for your little brother. I cant Wait til he is older so i can tell him all about his beautiful big sister SKYLA. What a brave girl you were and how strong you were. He will be so proud. We all are. Miss you bubba and we love you so much. Keep looking out for us up there. Cant wait til i see you again. Love mummy. xoxo

Back at the Hospital

27TH November- A Big Day
Today was a really big day for us, and a hard one at that. We met with Skyla's Dr and social worker at 1pm to get her autopsy report. It was still Pulmonary Hypotension episode which caused her to arrest. Although they didnt find a syndrome or genetic problem they still think she did have one but just couldnt put a name to it.
Now onto our news. We are having a BABY!!!!! And a healthy one at that. We had a scan today. I am 16wks 5days. I am due May 9th which is one day before Mothers Day. The stomach and everything is exactly where it should be. Yay no CDH. I am so happy. They still have to check the heart out in more detail but so far everything looks great. Now onto the sex, GIRL or BOY. I asked them and they are 90% sure we are having a BOY!!!!!!!!!! Now all we have to do is come up with a name for our little man. I told Blake today that he is getting a little brother. He was happy but i know he really wanted a sister. The first thing he asked me was "Is he Healthy". Thats all we want. Then he gave me the biggest kiss and cuddle. I knew the baby had to be healthy especially with a big sister in heaven watching over us all. Thanks Skyla, we love you and miss you so much bubba. Thankyou for sending mummy, daddy and Blake a healthy bubby. We love you.God how i wish our little girl was still here to make our family complete. As the days pass, it doesnt get any easier. I miss her so much. Having a new bubby on the way is never gonna replace our little girl. I hope it does help to ease our pain a little.
