Post-Op appointment

Justin and I had our appointment with the doctor today (on our anniversary- what a joy) to tell us about the pregnancy. He told us that is was a "genetic defect that was incongruent with life." Half of all miscarriages are because of genetics and our chances go down for a healthy pregnancy each time we have one. He gave us the option of getting genetic testing done to see if Justin and I are prone to producing a baby that would have these abnormalities. If that was the case, we would look into having a donor sperm or egg.

I'm just not ready to do that quite yet. I'm sure it would be really expensive, plus I just don't want to know if it was anyone's fault. Maybe if it happens again, I'd look into it. He said we had to wait 2 periods before we try again. I'm not going to. I'm impatient and want to leave it in God's timing. It's probably not the wisest thing to do, but at this point I really don't care.

He also told us it was a baby girl.

I'm disheartened.
