Jenn wanted me to give you all an update. She has been in the hospital since Saturday evening. We had some complications with the pregnancy and delivered a little girl, Samantha Grace, this afternoon. 8" long, 5.6 ounces, stillborn. Tonight is supposed to be Jenn's last night in the hospital. We are both doing pretty well emotionally. The doctor gave us a realistic picture Sunday evening and we both got some of our emotions taken care of. Obviously we are not out of the woods yet, but we've gotten a good start. This loss should be easier than our last as we were able to see our child and will be saying a good-bye tomorrow. We aren't planning on having any sort of ceremony and are going to have her cremated. The doctors don't really have any idea why we had problems and there didn't seem to be any developmental issues with the baby. She was perfect. As I said, Jenn should be home tomorrow evening so I'll leave all your questions to her. Thanks for everything.
Stephen

i am very sorry to hear such sad news. i've had a few losses similar to this one so if you ever need to talk..... sometimes just having your friends support you, you somehow find that hidden strength that you never knew you had, and help you. We are praying for you all

Just a quick update. We just got home from the hospital and are getting ready to do some final things at the funeral home...paper signing and stuff. I haven't had time to read through the thread, but I see how many responses are here and just want to say thank you. I've gotten a couple of PM's, and although they are marked as unread, I've read the email versions that I've gotten. Some have asked for my address, so I'm giving Bill my permission to give you the address, just PM him....is that OK Bill? I just won't be on the computer much the next couple of days. I'm exhausted and sore and will most likely just sleep for a couple of days. Know that I will get onto the computer eventually and read through everything. In case somebody decides to call to talk, I'm not sure how many phone calls I'll get to, so don't be alarmed if I don't get the phone when you call, I'm ok....just not reaching the phone at the moment. Thanks again for all of your prayers.
