As quite a few of you know, my daughter was expecting twins, however we were recently advised that she was having what is termed a Mono-amniotic pregnancy, and that the outcome wasn't great. During her fortnightly scan yesterday we were told that both babies had died.
She has now got to wait until Saturday to be admitted to the delivery suite at the hospital where she will be given a pessary (sp) every 3 hours to bring on labour.
She has- to all our horror, got to delivery these babies as normal.
I've pondered since yesterday whether to make this post, however as a few of of you knew about her pregnancy and the difficulties involved I thought it right to let you know.
I'm not really a praying person, but since yesterday I have been doing- I honestly don't know how we're going to get through Saturday and the weeks/months to follow.
If anyone feels this post is a bit too depressing, feel free to report it, it has however helped slightly to write it down.
Dear B00, I"m so saddened to read your news, for you and your daughter and all the family - this must be one of the hardest situations to face - please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers over the coming months.

Hi BOO - just to let you know that I've just read your last post & can't imagine how you must all be feeling.
It's been such a traumatic time for your daughter, her partner, you & your family, that I hope once you've got through the next couple of weeks, things will start to look a bit clearer & brighter for you all.
Boo love, so sorry to read of your sadness, kindly been directed this way by Psychick in order that I can see why everyone is so concerned about you. I have shed a tear for the little ones, and you and your daughter too. Words are nothing, but please know I have given them. Xx
BOO - I'm so very sorry to hear this news. Reading this puts my petty problems into place. You, your daughter and your family are in our thoughts.
Please post something soon to tell us how your daughter is doing.
I've only just seen your post and I would like to tell you how sorry I am.
I can't imagine the pain you are going through........ and as for your poor daughter, please dear God bless her.
Such a terrible thing.... my dad died at the end of October, i got married on the 01/06/07 this year so glad he was there to see it, he dearly wanted a granchild more than anything, so inspite of everything we are still going to try for a baby in the new year. although cant begin to imagine how your poor daughter must be feeling, best wishes xxx
