I know somebody posted on here last Friday about me and Nikki and what was happening. We're ok, but we've definitely been out of touch with a lot of things over the last week or so. I've covered baseball and done some things but that's about it. She isn't working today...one last day...but will go back tomorrow.
So here is what I posted on my Facebook last Friday..hope it explains some things
Nikki Hood is in outpatient surgery. What happened? A surprise followed by a touch of heartbreak. We hadn't planned on having a child even though we had talked about it.....our lifestyle and travel aren't conducive to raising an infant, so the talks hadn't really progressed past a certain point. However, about five weeks ago a little thing called life happened. Two positive tests later we confirmed that she was pregnant.....
However, she started having some complications and went to the doctor earlier this week and things didn't look good. We went back for an ultrasound this morning, and our little "peanut" (which was at the seven-week mark) didn't have a heartbeat. So we are at the hospital getting things taken care of. Will we try again? We will talk about it, and I am hopeful I can get us out to Colorado in a few weeks for some alone time and we will talk about the process. This hurts a little bit - even though it wasn't planned we were both kind of excited to see where this next journey would take us. I am gonna get her home today and let her rest and recuperate and we will get on with things. We don't need anything and are well taken care of by family, but in the meantime, thoughts and prayers are appreciated.

We went through the same thing where we lost an unborn child a couple weeks after finding out about the pregnancy.
We are lucky to have two great boys, but I still on occasion wonder about the third child and what he/she would have been like.
Thanks for the update. Express my sympathy to Nikki.

This is much more emotionally trying than anyone who hasn't experienced it can understand. Just know brighter days are ahead and never forget it's part of a plan.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you. About 25 years ago, my wife and I were in the same position. The fall we found out she was pregnant again. Somewhat subdued, we waited and the following June had a son. I think the statistic is that 1 in 5 first pregnancies does not go full term. Just hold on to each other and it will all work out.

Thoughts to you both.
The first time going through the "Holy Cow we're pregnant" process starts to open our eyes to the world and deeper meanings and purpose.
Stay strong and give Nikki a shoulder to lean on and some space to process this too.

Lord be with David and Nikki. Send your spirit to intercede and comfort them. As children are a gift from God please bless them. Send a legion of angels to comfort, encourage and be with them. Remove all doubt that is deception of the devil. Give them peace and bring them joy. May the angels help them to understand that all things are possible with God our loving father.

David, I know your pain all too well because the same has happened with my wife and me twice before. There is so much anticipation and excitement and then it is taken from you in the blink of an eye. It's amazing how much you can love something that you never met and the connection that was formed so quickly is what makes it so painful. I wish I had some sort of amazing insight for you but I don't. I know that it hurts and it will hurt for a while but just lean on each other for support and through your love for each other you will come out the other side with a stronger bond.
