We will probaby TTC straight away...

December 9, 2003

As scary as it will be, my DH and I don't want to take any

precautions against getting pg. We were both in two minds before the

surgery, but for some reason we feel differently now.

I'm just glad we feel the same way.

My slightest concern is that since having our daughters my DH and I

are both now keen for a girl. We really wanted a boy when we had our

son, and then really didn't care what came next.

Now that we both know how excitied we were to be having daughters we

are both a little partial to experiencing a little girl. Utmost in

our hearts though is to have a healthy baby, but this is now in the

back of our minds. I know I will be happy no matter what, but feel a

little bad that we feel this way.

I'm so glad I'm going to have this board here for the emotional times

ahead.

Abdominal Cerclage placed 2 Dec 2003 – still working up the courage

to TTC.

Matt 20 mths – emergency vag/cerl 24 wks, 11 weeks bed rest then

delivered 35 wks PROM and cord prolapse.

Paige and Amy – preventative vag/cerl 14 wks, delivered alive 20 wks,

passed away short time later wrapped in my arms.

Babies were suffering from chronic Twin-to-Twin Transfusion Syndrome

(TTTS). Unsure whether I/C, TTTS or infection caused contractions,

which resulted in cervix dilating and stitch to fail.
