12wks: Bittersweet Day

Today was our long awaited sonogram (NT Scan). We found out that we lost baby B. It happened around 8w5d. It was shocking but I knew there was a risk for it to happen, as it's common in twin pregnancies (and IVF). But it still hit me pretty hard. 

We are 12wks today. Baby A is thriving and measuring 12w1d. Nuchal fold measured 1.2mm, which is well within range of less than 3mm so that was perfect as well. Not much else to say, just waiting for things to feel better.. I know it takes time. It's hard to be happy for Baby A knowing we lost baby B. I feel bad for feeling happy. I know A LOT of you understand where I'm coming from... Next appointment is 4/22 at 16w1d. Hopefully we can see the gender then! I'm thinking another boy.


R.I.P. sweet baby B.. Mama and Daddy love you always...
