Hi Everyone!
It's been long tim since I have been on this board. I was just very busy with work and then went on vacation.
I just wanted to share what I went through today. It was a very tragic morning. I was driving to work and the car behind me lost the control and slammed through 4 lanes 3 to 4 times and finally rolled over once and came back slamming in all the lanes. And again, within few seconds it rolled 3 times and was upside down on the shoulder. And, I was seeing all this in my rear view mirror, every second I thought he was gonna hit me and take me with him too. But, luckily he tried not to hit anyone, and lost his control. Finally, his car was upside down and he was stuck inside.
I started shacking like anything, but I had courage to call 911 immediately, and pulled over on the shoulder. As soon as I pulled over, I just started crying like anything, I realized that I would have definately lost mine and my baby's life. I sat there for 15 minutes, called my hubby and he consoled me. After talking to him, he suggested I move away from the scene otherwise I will be more in tears. So I did, and came to work, and then I heard on the radio that they had helicopter to pick that guy up, but he was stuck inside his car. I hope he is ok.
The whole day, that scene doesn't go off my mind and just the thought of loosing my baby. He would have definately taken me with him, but he saved mine and my baby's life. I thank God for that.
Today, I realized that how does it feel to loose a baby.
Just wanted to share this with all of you. So, take care of yourself, specially at this stage.

Arshiya arshiya replied. Hi gals,
Thanks for all your support. I really needed it. I think it really helped me and I am slowly getting over it.
Nithya, Ya I just came back 2 days back and it was great timeoff. It was very exciting to see my parents specially at this stage. I also had good shower. I will post details later. Hope you are feeling better with your nausea.
Nikita, I know how it feels being in your situation. But, good that you visited your doc righaway. Hope everything is ok now with you.
Vindhya, You are right, there is definately someone up there looking after us and our babies. You probably went through the same thing as I did, but try to forget that. I am also trying.

Take care of yourself and our precious babies.

Priya replied. Hey Arshiya,
All's well with you and the little one..that's all that matters. Try not to think about the incident too much...I'm sure you have enough on your plate without it.
Priya Vandana replied. Hi Arshiya. I can understand how upset you are, it surely must have been a terrible moment. Thank God you are safe. I saw a major accident on my way to work today, and I just kind of stopped driving for a minute.. got a big honk from the car behind :( Just came in office and read your message.. I know it must have been nerve wrecking, but try to be calm and not think about it too much. God and everyone else's blessings are with you, and I wish you and your baby the very best.

Take care
Vandana
Simmi replied. Hi Arshiya. Sorry to hear about the ordeal you had to go through. Really happy though that you and the little one are fine. God bless u both.
Hope that guy is safe and sound too.
Try to keep your mind off this by distracting yourself. If talking about it helps, we r all here for you.
Hope you feel better soon. Take care. Nithya replied. Hi Arshiya,
That was indeed a very bad day. Glad that you & the baby are fine. Hope that guy is also fine. I was just thinking about you for last two days but did not post any msgs as I was not sure if you were back from your vacation.
Hope you enjoyed your vacation & pampering by your family. Do write about your baby shower when you are little more relaxed.

Take care,
Nithya

Nikita replied. Hi Arshiya,

So sorry to hear about ur experience and glad and relieved to know everything is fine with u and little one.
Y'day was a nerve-racking day for me too. It had been 3rd day since i felt any movements. Day 1 i thought may be i just didn't notice but day 2 i was paying all the attention to feel something but in vain. Y'day since morning I got so scared. I called doc and took appointment for evening. Then late morning when i was on phone with my hubby, he just happened to ask \";so r u feeling any Bruce Lee kicks\"; and i started crying like anything. For 2 days i was convincing him that its normal not to feel any movements sometimes. And suddenly he hears me crying frantically. he came home immediately and took me to docs. we asked the doc to come too, as he was not going to be in office till evening. And all the time while we were waiting for doc to arrive, I was in tears. Just couldn't control. My hubby was trying so hard to calm me down. Finally when doc did the u/s and we saw the baby moving and heart-beat, we were so relieved.
It was just too scary.
Anyways now its back to normal.

All u gals, take care of urself and very precious little one.
Vindhya replied. Hi Arshiya,

Sorry to hear about your experience. There's definitely someone up there who is looking after us and our babies.

I totally understand your situation. Yesterday, it was a very bad day for me. A little girl ran into my car when I was returning from work. The road was very narrow, I didn't see her coming so fast on her bicycle, as a parked car was blocking the view. It was at an intersection and Thank God I was driving slowly. It was a matter of nano seconds that I put my breaks, and she hit the side of the car. If not, I would've ran her over. I cannot imagine the situation. I was so panicked. The girl did get some bruises in her knee and was bleeding. Some passers-by helped us. Her dad came and picked her up. It was the worst experience I've ever had. I am glad it all ended up well and nothing serious happenned. But, I am still getting over it.

Hope that guy whose car rolled over is safe. Great of him to avoid hitting anyone on the road.

Hope you have calmed down by now.

Vindhya Radhika replied. Arshiya,

Good to hear from you after a long time, and verrrrrrrrrrry glad to hear that you are fine after today's incident. I hope the other guy is better as well.

Take care of yourself and the baby.

Good luck!!
Radhika Avi replied. Hey Arshiya, I am so sorry to hear about what you went through today. It must have been really hard. It is situations like these that remind us about the existence of some other power out there that takes care of us and our loved ones.

I am glad you and your baby is fine. He/she up there was watching out for you and your baby today and kept you guys safe and sound...

I hope the guy will be alright too. It was very brave of him to avoid hitting anyone else....

You take good care of yourself and try and relax. I hope you had a nice and a relaxing vaction
