I hope no one ever has to go through this

On Friday I lost the baby.  I started to have contractions around 10 on Friday, but figured they were constipation pains.  Finally around 1 am we went to the ER, which since I was 20 weeks they took me up to labor and delivery.  I was 1 cm dialated, but there was nothing they could really do since the contractions went away.  They told me to take tylenol and if I had more than 5 contractions in an hour to come back.  Around 5 pm on Friday they started again, but again I put it off as constipation pains.  Around 6 they were every 3 mins and were lasting for 30 seconds.  Erik was sleeping on the couch and he woke up to me screaming cause I was in so much pain.  He called an ambulance who then transported me to the hospital.  We were there not even 45 mins when baby Bennett entered the world at 20 weeks.  I knew there was no chance of him survivng and he lived for almost an hour.  It was one of the hardest things I have ever gone through. I don't ever wish for someone to go through this pain and heartache.  I know that God has a plan for everyone and obviously he wanted Bennett to spend time with him.  I know that he is up there in heaven with my dad watching over Erik and myself.

I really don't know what I would have done if it had not been for him and my family this weekend.  They have been there for us through everything and going through this has made Erik and I even closer than we were ever before.
