On May 18th, 2016 we experienced a sudden and unexpected tragedy. We lost our 6lb 1 oz son Jagger to a placental abruption at 34 weeks. Having a relatively normal pregnancy, with an exception of just a couple high blood pressures readings at recent appointments, this was completely unexpected. I had only been diagnosed with gestational hypertension and showed no other signs of pre-eclampsia, unfortunately this awful disease developed extremely rapid and led to the abruption. The day we lost him I had led my normal routine, went to work, came home, made dinner, and off to bed as any other work day went. Not even 2 hours after I lay down I woke up experiencing nausea and pain. Little did i realize that horrible pain was the abruption that occurred and me bleeding internally. I arrived at the hospital just shortly after where the doctors and nurses began searching to find Jagger’s heartbeat. I was rushed to an emergency C-section but it was already too late. We lost our third son and my boys and husband almost lost me. While I am thankful for the doctors and nurses that saved my life, I wish so much they could have saved my son! I am happy to be here for my boys and not a day goes by that I don’t' think of Jagger and wish he was here. He has two amazing big brothers who adore each other and it breaks my heart that he and as well as them are missing out on growing up with each other. My life has forever changed. We LOVE and WILL NEVER FORGET you sweet boy!!
