Oh Kat. I'm so terribly sorry!! I am praying for you and Dorian and Logan.

My Daddy and My darling Father in law (who passed on the 3rd) are surely looking after him for you.

Kat,
I am so sorry to hear this.  I can't imagine your heartbreak.  I wish you a safe and peaceful delivery for your precious little boy.

no matter how much you "prepare" for this, you are never really prepared.  Kat, you all are in my prayers today and as you go through the next several months.

I have been following you throughout your journey, too, Kat. Though I never posted, I prayed for you all. Your Logan touched many lives. Your words touched us all.

May your family find moments of peace. So many people will be with you in heart, and would gently hug you if they could, for as long as you needed comfort.

Bless you.

Kat, I just don't know what to say.  I've been following this thread, although I think I've only posted on it once or twice.  I have felt in awe of how incredibly brave you are.  When I read your latest update I could only cry and wish I was there with you to give you a huge hug.  My thoughts are with you and Dorian and Logan.  I can't even begin to put into words what I'm feeling in my heart for you right now.

Ok, for the first time tonight since I delivered him I'm sobbing.  Thank you all for your responces. 
Logan was born tonight at 5:07pm. 
2 lb 5oz
15 inches. 

Blue eyes

I wasn't in active labor till about 5:00 tonight - they started softening my cervix at about 11 yesterday morning.    One push and our little boy was there - in body.  One more push and I was done.  No tears - doing well. 

They cleaned Logan up and brought him back to us.  We spent about 5 hours with him.  Holding him, talking, calling family - and above all - smiling! 

Dorian was present for his birth - as were Dorian's mom, and her mom!    That was just the family I had time to list to have in the room in the 7 minutes of "pushing"  Once he was born and back in the room with us a lot of family saw him.  One of Dor's cousins was the only one who did not know what to think of him and was a bit scared and standoffish. 

We really enjoyed our 5 hours with him, family left soon after seeing him to give us time with him.  We kept him with us till I was sent home from the hospital.  We got 70 pictures of him.  He's the most perfect little boy I've ever seen.  He has the eyes of both of his grandfathers, his father's nose and chin, his mother's feet and mouth. 

We were placed in a hallway by ourselves... could have been a bad thing - having nurses and such forget about you - but it was great.  My day time nurses were all mine and we both very pleased with them.  They were great as to the point that I got hugs before they went home each night.  The night time nurses were not so great - but I learned to do stuff on my own, which I liked since I felt odd having to call someone each time I had to go to the bathroom and such.

Kat! I haven't been on in a while, I am so sorry to hear that he was gone before he was born. You had a great pregnancy with him. I want to see pictures of your little man, please PM me some.

I feel like I've been going through this with you from the beginning...

I'm so sorry to read about your update... It brought so many memories of our twins' birth and the weeks and months following right back to me.  *hugs*  I'm glad you got to spend time with him on your terms and that the medical staff treated you all with the respect and dignity and privacy that you all deserved.

I hope that you remember how strong you both have been to come this far and that you remember to love and rely on one another to get through the coming months together.

I am so so sorry... truly..

I'm glad you got to take pictures

Best wishes and hugs, pm me anytime if I can possibly do anything at all to help or just listen.

PS Didn't say it before.. but Logan is a great name, very masculine and different without being geeky ^^

I have a lot of PM's to reply to.  WS - thanks so much.

Everyone else - I can't address each of the posts here individually - I appreciate every word though.  Dorian and I are doing well.  Spent Christmas with his family and after having to have gotten to spend time with Logan, and finally knowing what was God's will for him - a lot of weight was lifted off our shoulders (and replaced on me as milk - it hurts!)  We've had our sad times, but for the most part we are really happy about all the time and memories we have of him. 

Kelly - you're gonna be annoyed with me - I'm back to prepregnancy weight already - I'm thrilled - if I can take off another 15 or 20 even better! 

We went to the funeral home today and got everything paperwork wise done.  Picked out his urn and everything. 

Thanks everyone.

I'm off to send pm's now.

I admit, I didn't read all of the way through this thread.  However...

Honey, I'm so, so, so sorry that you and your family were put through this.  I know you'll be in the hearts, minds, and prayers of many people on this forum, mine included.  I don't know what to say except that I'm glad you seem to be doing well and are making peace with this.  You must be a very strong woman.
