its just hard questions time with my kids

today my 4 year old asked me something i knew was coming. Hes a twin and his twin was lost in the womb when i was still in first trimester. He knows about it and in the pictures on the living room wall of all my kids as newborns theres one more a sonogram picture of him and his twin at my first sonogram. He asked me if one these twins were going to die before birth too. I took him to my bedroom and we set there and I tried to explain the best I could to my son that doesn't always happen and we hope it doesn't happen this time too. Best thing to do is pray

I have so many questions, but out of respect I shall not ask. I have tears running down my face, as I type this. I can't imagine, how strong your family has to be to endure such a tragedy. I wish you all the best, and I think that wish will come true, because you are strong, and candid, a good mother. peace

@Mountainlady16 That's heartbreaking, and sometimes bad things happen to good people. You can, and are using that bad for good, by being stronger for you, and your family.

@Mountainlady16 Congratulations, to you, your family, and your twins who will be born healthy, and beautiful, just like their mother.

He will understand it more a he gets older. Don’t stress about it now.

Praying will help with peace of mind. Medical science will help with the rest.

Children, especially the very youngest ones, understand more than wee wish they did, becausee they're so close to the before-life. Best thing you can do is be honest in words a child would understand

I think that is called vanishing twin. It's pretty common what I have heard
