Did something happen on the last pregnancy?

I didn't want to say anything and bring a downer into such a happy thread, but yeah. We got pregnant last November (would've been the first one), and lost it about 8 weeks in. It was rough, but we made it through and are ready to try again. It was just one of those things. We were the unlucky 1 in 5.

Sorry to hear about that

. Everything always works out for the best. Hope all goes well next time.

Sorry to hear that Shark

I know how you feel though. My wife and I experienced a similar situation before this pregnancy. For us, it stopped growing at about 6 weeks.

We were very excited when they found a heartbeat. Chances of miscarriage are very slim after that. Hang in there and keep trying... isn't trying the best part

Shark: :hug: I'm glad you finally told us, honey.

Voo: :love: thanks for these. They're always so amazing.

Yep, we had a heartbeat up until about the 8th week, then it just...stopped. No reason or anything, just something went wrong in the development. It absolutely amazed us how many people go through what we did, some numerous times. It's something you really never hear about until it happens to you.

So glad to hear (and see) everything is going well for you this time, Voo! :-D :thumbsup:

I hear about more and more miscarriages.... I know about 5 myself and well... I'm young.

Voo... we are all so excited for you. You know this means you have to keep us posted on the development. :wink:

And Shark... now you have an excuse for... doing what it takes to be the next to follow Voo :wink:

Yeah but it takes two to practice.

Congrats, Vood. Having an in-house model (my almost 2 year old daughter) has possibly done more for my portrait photography than anything else.

Shark - I lost 2 myself at 6 and 8 weeks when I was in my early 20s. It can be (and was) heartbreaking. Just keep the faith. I now have a wonderful son who is nearly 16 now. (OMG - am I THAT old?) :shock: Kids are absolutely worth all that it takes to get them here.

Congrats Voo! You are going to be a great daddy!!! Just think of all of the photo lessons you can pass on to your son or daughter.
