RIP
I'm so sorry for your loss 🥺
My niece is fighting for her life in picu after her first repair for HLHS - pls pray for Emma Sophia ❤
😢
Rest in the sweetest peace little one ❤️
1. shortness of breath 2. her kids told her they had a dream she was pregnant 3. poor sleep, vivid dreams 4. excess saliva 5. sensitivity to smells
FYI..... HLHS is short for Hypo Plastic Left Heart Syndrome. Babies are born with only the right side of their heart.... There are 3 options 1) Take them home and let them die 2) Heart transplant, dangerous 3). A series of 3 open heart surgeries a) Glenn b) Fontan (sp) c) Norwood
My niece went through this same thing 8 years ago with her 2nd child, a beautiful baby boy, she found out at her 5 month ultrasound and she carried him full term. This beautiful baby boy lived 2 hours after his birth. He was here for a short time but he left us all knowing he was soooooo loved and we will always miss him. Sending prayers your way
Young Drummy Derry ya bass
🎀🧸What a painfully, beautiful story. You are so strong..how lucky she was to have had you as her Mamma. Thank you for sharing her story. 🎀🧸
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I'm 5dpo my 3 years old came to me hug me and kiss my belly and then he said mommy I want to see the baby. I pray this is it for me. not feeling any symptoms tho but feeling bloated and having a stomach bug
Thank you for sharing your beautiful baby girl story. May GOD bless you and keep guiding you and your beautiful family 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
My little brother also has CHD (congenital heart disease). He doesn’t have HLHS like Saoirse, but in the NICU/PICU/Cardiac ward he met other families whose kids had it or have it, too. He’s had two open heart surgeries so far and is turning 6 in a few days! We have been so lucky throughout his journey and the setbacks he has faced. This was a beautiful tribute to your Heart Angel, I hope your family is ok now! ❤️💙
It breaks my heart seeing someone going through this kind of pain. My son was 36 weeks [20.03.2021] it hurts so much till this date I can't stop crying and it was my first pregnancy and having loose him with no explanation why just hurts so much. I hope you keeping well😘
The saliva production has to do with a biological response to protect your teeth from stomach acid when you feel nauseous and throw up. Interesting that it happens so early on and without nausea.
Love the slow cooker
Congratulations 🎊🎈
The breathlessness happened to me last month. It was so hard to catch a breath. Unfortunately it ended up being a chemical.
The airports were just like when we flew out of Washington DC in February. Crazy empty. I wish I’d have had a skateboard too 😂😀❤️
I’m trying to figure out If I’m pregnant. These are my symptoms sorry for the tmi 1. Shortness of breath 2. Vivid dreams (Someone grabbed my arms shook me and said “just accept it, you have to accept that you’re pregnant” 3. Diarrhea 4. Spotting and it’s really watery 5. Tingling/Burning Nipples 6. Constant Nausea But the tests are negative. Im freaking out.
We’re you?
@@taliamarie22 yes
I love family clean day🥰
Finally I hear someone say malachi correctly my.4 yearolds name and people cal him ma la chee!!! Lol
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Watching this way after the fact, but quick question: I'm in a similar situation as you where my eldest and I have american & British passports but everyone else just has British ones. We've always just applied for ESTAs online with no problem. Is there a new visa now due to covid? 😳
Same here. My kids intuition tells me I'm pregnant. My oldest boy said it with two of my pregnancies. And my daughter she was 4 yrs old she turned to look at me oita nowhere and told me I'm pregnant with NO pregnancy symptoms at all she just told me like she knew. So i took the test the next day and it was positive lmao so yes, trust the kids. They've all been right each time 🤣
Yesss with the saliva my mouth is so watery right now and a moody but other than that I'm not getting any other symptoms except for being bloated so I don't know I'll take the test in the morning
Thank you for this very real and beautiful video Heather.
Wow I’m so sorry 😔😔
Im so sorry 🥺🥺
what beautiful children
Am sorry for Your loss of babygirl Saoirse and inspired by your courage, thank You for sharing her story! Good heal and bless You!
I’m so sorry 😢 I couldn’t watch it all. The title alone made me cry. I sent y’all so much ❤️
Is Povidone Iodine(Yodopovidona) Antiseptic Killing cov id 19? Real Doctors on you tub e and web are saying it. I Rinsed my sinus and mouth with it for 3 days before test I got Negative P C R results. Could Expectorants reduce co v id congestion?
This is the cutest clean with me I’ve ever seen. Very inspiring to try and have my family as part of a real routine. ♥️💕
Freedom...Jesus called her home. I am sorry for your loss. I know you still feel the weight of her in your arms. So tragic a loss. Such a beautiful soul.
A beautiful child a beautiful life my sincerest condolences God bless💔🙏
Love your video. My son was diagnosed with that in 1992. Like you I chose to carry him. He was born at 34 weeks. He never drew a breath. I believe that I needed this tonight
Couch full of adorable!! Beautiful family
Wow this's so wonderful my sister low we are welcome u to our family 😍😍😍
I am sorry for your loss. I know the pain of losing a child as well. I recommend this book, "Lessons from a Place of Pain" on Amazon. Its a good read and I am sure it will give you a extra dose of strength.
What a beautiful baby and her name means Freedom. She is free to live on forever in heaven.
I’m balling my eyes out I’ve had 4 miscarriages and I’m going thru postpartum depression after having my son in June (he is my only living baby) it makes me look at him and be grateful but it hurts to see other mothers go through this
So very sorry for your loss. You have a lovely way of expressing your self, though I wish you didn't have to share what you have. I wish you all the very best of what life has to offer going forward.
During lockdown, we suffered a 20 week stillbirth. Most ppl still arent aware bc we had never made a pregnancy announcement on social media. Only time it gets brought up is if someone specifically asks. Its hard
Sending all my love and prayers to you and your family I'm so sorry for your loss ❤
You have the most gorgeous babies ever! Every single one is special 💗💗💗 so sorry to hear about the loss of your littlest lady. We lost my nephew when he was born too soon, hugs to you and your family
I 'm so sorry for your loss. Respect from the Netherlands.
Kitoko makase👍
1. Breathlessness 2. Physic kids 3. Vivid Dreams 4. Lots of Saliva 5. Sensitivity to Smells
