With a heavy heart (LR)...
XP from DH's FB post this AM....
"On Wednesday, Oct. 1st, we received the tragic news that out sweet baby boy's heart had stopped beating. In the early morning on Friday, Oct. 3rd, Lincoln Alexander was delivered. For only 18 weeks, he was 7.6 oz and 9.5 inches long (was going to be tall like his mama).We held him in our arms as the sun came up. He was the perfect little baby boy we were so looking forward too. Holding Little Linc is something we will never forget. I am so sorry buddy. The world was not ready for Little Linc, but [FMW] and I sure were. We are grateful for your love and support as we process this unimaginable loss."
Over the past several months, I have appreciated the support and knowledge you ladies have shared as we have traveled our IF journey. I will be taking a break from GP though for a while until DH and I have processed through this. Thank you all for your thoughts.
