Hey guys Monday didn't go so well. My baby has a bad heart, her arms and legs are not moving, it looks as if her arms and gegs were stuck in the same spot since she was 13 weeks.. all I saw was nubs. She has a lot of health problems and I'm so upset to why me. Every test was done. Thanks to everyone and there responses.

I'm so sorry to hear that. We're here if you want to talk.

Sorry to hear things are not well... wishing you much strength in whatever decision you make.

After all its your body, your baby, your decision, not up to doctors... I hope everything works out for you and your partner :)

I am so sorry you have to make a decision like this. I once walked in your shoes. I was pregnant with a baby that had something called anacephaly. The easiest way to explain that is that the baby's brain did not completely develop and if I made it to term, the baby would only live a few hours to a few days in excruciating pain. In the end, I chose to terminate the pregnancy.

While it's not an easy decision to make... terminate or continue with the pregnancy, the choice is yours and yours alone.

I remember being where you are and having people tell me to attempt to carry to term... to terminate, etc. I did what was, what I felt in my heart, was in the best interest of my child and myself.

No matter what decision you make, it will be the right one for you. Don't let people to persuade you to do something you personally are not comfortable with. It will be you that has to live with the consequences, not the people who try to persuade you what THEY believe is right.

My prayers are also with you.
