I have a son whom just turned five a few weeks ago. In the beginning, I too was carrying twins. At almost fourteen weeks, I began bleeding heavily. I delivered the twin whom had passed away shortly after getting to the hospital. There were several times during the next few months when it looked as though Alex too, would not make it. Thankfully, after going into pre-term labor on an almost weekly basis, our son was born at just over thirty three weeks. We named our lost twin Matthew Allen, or "Matt" as I would often call him. Over the years, we have seen and heard Alex playing with what seemed to be no one. When asked last year who he was playing with, he responded innocently, "Oh, it's just Matt." I had not uttered that name since right after Alex's birth, and never once in front of him. I like to think of it as proof that our babies live on, and not only in our hearts.

We named our lost twin Matthew Allen, or “Matt” as I would often call him. Over the years, we have seen and heard Alex playing with what seemed to be no one. When asked last year who he was playing with, he responded innocently, “Oh, it’s just Matt.”

I had not uttered that name since right after Alex’s birth, and never once in front of him. I like to think of it as proof that our babies live on, and not only in our hearts.

If you have a start and stop bleeding pattern, yes, it would be a pretty serious concern. Hang in there. Make sure you love your doctor and you are in a good environment. I hope you'll consider visiting the forums, where lots of women can help you through this scare. www.pregnancyloss.info/phpbb2 Kanji,
