As quite a few of you know, my daughter was expecting twins, however we were recently advised that she was having what is termed a Mono-amniotic pregnancy, and that the outcome wasn't great. During her fortnightly scan yesterday we were told that both babies had died.

She has now got to wait until Saturday to be admitted to the delivery suite at the hospital where she will be given a pessary (sp) every 3 hours to bring on labour.

She has- to all our horror, got to delivery these babies as normal.

I've pondered since yesterday whether to make this post, however as a few of of you knew about her pregnancy and the difficulties involved I thought it right to let you know.

I'm not really a praying person, but since yesterday I have been doing- I honestly don't know how we're going to get through Saturday and the weeks/months to follow.

If anyone feels this post is a bit too depressing, feel free to report it, it has however helped slightly to write it down.

Thanks for listening.

Boo: On this day of Remembrance, I offered special prayers for those who suffered, as well as those who are suffering now. You, your daughter, her partner and the twins are held close today.

Thank you V V.

The boys were delivered last night at 11pm. Weighing 12oz and 13 oz.

We were allowed to look at them in a little white casket and my daughter held them today, as well as having photos taken and hand and footprints.

They are still at the hospital as she is still undecided as to what she wants to do with them. But she herself is home and is sending a few days with her dad.

So that, is that really- I can honestly say it's been the worst weekend iv'e ever had, but all your lovely words and wellwishes have helped me- thank you, thank you, thank you xxxx
<<hugs>>
Boo, I cannot even begin to imagine what you all went through last night and today.
Take care, Thoughts are with you and your family. xxxxxxxxxxx Just get through one day at a time. Hang in there. xx
BOO, Im so glad that part of the ordeal is over for your daughter, her boyfriend and of course you. I hope Im not going to word this wrong, but now you can all be there for each other as your grieving really starts. Im glad you daughter was able to hold the boys and she chose to go ahead with the photos and prints. A lasting memory of her little angels.

Big hugs to you all xxx
oh B00, am sending you huge hugs, you must all be in such limbo.

I hope that your daughter is to receive as much help and counselling as she needs and that you all, as a family, get help to try and come to terms with the loss of two precious angels xxx
Oh BOO - how terribly sad - to actually see them - makes it all too real. I send my thoughts and love to you all . xx
Thanks for up dating us Boo. I've been thinking about you all today,since I heard your awful news last night. In the middle of all your awful grief,I'm glad you were all able to have that private time with the babies.I can't begin to know what you're going through,but,lots of hugs to you and all your family. Linda xx
Aw Boo, so tiny. Glad you got footprints etc, I am having my sons tattooed on me when i am brave enough.

I can also recommend S.A.N.D.S. Myself and my mum used to go together and talking about it all really helped.
Boo sweetheart , I can just be here for you along with the rest of your AB family , know that I am thinking of you at this very difficult time and send you hugs . xxx
So desperately sorry to hear that BOO. xxx
BOO, I am so sorry to read about your daughter and the twins. My sister when she was 18 had to give birth to a stillborn son at almost full term. She later went on to have more children. But that does not take away the pain from loosing her first child.

My thoughts are with you and your daughter xx

so sorry boo , maybe she could have their ashes and put them in her garden ,with maybe a plant or bush , dont know just a suggestion.xxx

Ohh I can't begin to add anything more it is so sad. Time is the great healer, no use saying that now I know. Give my love and best wishes to your daughter. XX puss
BOO i send my prayers and love to you and your family. My thoughts are with you all at this sad time xxxx
Oh Boo! I just saw this tonight. I am so sorry for this difficult time. My thoughts and prayers are with you and you daughter.
Bless you all. xx.
B00, you are in my thoughts. I will say a prayer for the littluns before I sleep.

(((hugs)))) Lacey xxxxxx
