Let me start by telling you my background this is technically my 2nd pregnancy last year @ 25 years old and i got pregnant for the first time in august 06 at my almost 15 week checkup they could not find the baby's heartbeat, they tried with a doppler and then did 3 u/s and pronounced the baby dead, they said i was too far along to have a d&c preformed and that it would be better for me to be induced and deliver the baby. on Nov. 30th i gave birth to a baby boy about the size of my hand and i will never forget that day for as long as i live. id been walking around in a state of confusion and grief for months because they hadnt found out the reason why this had happened. first the autopsy came back normal, then the genetic testing done on the fetus came back normal, i was overcome with more grief knowing my baby was fine and now hes dead. so the next step was for me to get tested for blood clotting disorders, i got tested and waited for the results for 2 weeks. Turns out i had what they call PAI-1 4G/5G, which means one of my alleles was mutated from birth , which means i have a higher chance of developing clots and when im pregnant clots form in the placenta and stop blood flow from getting to the fetus so then it dies.

so now i have to be on a daily injection of blood thinners in order to try to keep this pregnancy going. needless to say im extemely nervous about this pregnancy and very anxious. we didnt plan on getting pregnant again this soon but now that i am im hoping and praying for my miracle baby.
