Every day I check a blog written by Stacy, another mother in a similar situation. I consider reading hers posts therapy. I truly believe God led me to her site. The experiences she talked about in her post today "The Fourth Part 2" are very similar to ours. If you have time, and want to further understand how we feel, read this post.

Kristi,
I have never posted before but thought that I would share my thoughts with you today. I am a fellow blog reader of Stacy's. I will not say that I am in the same situation as you, as I am not. I am praying for you everyday and hoping that God can use his power to work a miracle for both you and Stacy. I am glad that you have found her site and find it useful in helping you. Please know, I am thinking and praying for you.
Best Wishes,
Jennifer
Kristi,
I will continue to pray for you and your family. I am so glad that you are able to cherrish the kicks and wiggles of your son... I know you know what a blessing it is to be able to truly enjoy those moments in pregnancy and to not take them for granted.
I will continue to pray, too, for a miracle, and for you to be strengthened as you begin your year teaching.

I just saw your comment on Stacy's blog and wanted to come here and tell you how very sorry I am for this trial you are going through. I lost my son at 31 weeks in June to Trisomy 13. We, too, were given a poor diagnosis early in my pregnancy. I know the road you are traveling. I will pray for you.
Kristi, I saw your post on Stacy's blog and wanted to write. My son, Nathaniel was also diagnosed with an Omphalocele. We found out at the big ultrasound when I was about 20 weeks along, he was also diagnosed with a heart defect. We only had 10 short days to walk this path with God before we learned our son no longer had a heart beat. I love your strength and faith. I just wanted to tell you not to give up on Matthew David, he needs you to be strong and positive. There is a group called MOO's (Mothers of Omphalocele), if you google it you should be able to find it, maybe they can offer some support to you. I belonged to the group for a short time and after my sweet Nathaniel (also means "Gift of God" and that's exactly why we chose it) I was invited to the O Angels group. I pray you will not need this group but it has been a great source of comfort for me, Stacy knows how to join if you should need this group. It's been 14 months since my sweet Nathaniel was delivered and I held him for the first and last time in my arms. I miss him every second of every day but I know that God has a plan for us and that Nathaniel is a well and whole angel in Heaven looking down on us and we will be with him some day in Heaven. Keep your faith in God that He is in control here. You will never know "why this is happening to you" but be proud that God has chosen you and your family to have Matthew David a part of your lives.
