When I went to my doctors appointment Wednesday and they could not find the baby's heartbeat so I spent Wednesday night in the hospital delivering a baby that was only 13-14 weeks along. It looks like I lost the baby right after my 13 week appointment. I had to be induced and actually deliver the baby. A week and a half earlier and it would have been a D and C but we were just to far along. I only had to dilate to a three. It was all done with cervical medicine and they said it was going to be more painful then I found it to be. I never needed any pain medicine. My heat hurt more then my body. Afterwards we actually got to see the baby. It was all there, only in teeny tiny miniature form, all its toes and fingers its mouth and nose. It was 4 inches long and weighed 19 grams or 0.6 of an once. It was pretty amazing. Physically I am doing fine and emotionally we will get there. We are really disappointed we were really looking forward to this baby but we know things will work out.
