Ok, so I have talked about the pregnancy message board that I have been on since April plenty of times. I know many people probably think it's silly and all, but I have made a lot of online friends there. One of those friends being my "labor buddy." We were all paired with someone who was due at least two weeks earlier/later so that when one of us went into labor we could post it on the board and when the baby came we could post that the baby is here and what the stats are, etc..

Well, my labor buddies husband called me yesterday and left me a voice mail stating that she was in labor and he would update me whenever possible. She was due two weeks after me so that would make her 35 weeks pregnant. Not an ideal time to go into labor, but there have been quite a few ladies on the board who have delivered earlier and everything turned out just fine.

Well, I got another call from her husband this afternoon. He left another message, but this time it just said to call him back. I called him and he said the baby didn't make it. They don't know why. Tests are going to be run. He lived for 2 hours and then passed away. I can't even imagine what they are going through. He was crying on the phone and I was crying. I didn't know what to say other than how sorry I am. I wish there was something I could do. I can't imagine what I would do if something happened to Gabrielle. I am just so sad.
