Q: End Stage Renal Diesease

Hi I just wanted to see if I can find anyone who is pregnant and has esrd. Esrd is when your kidneys no longer work and you must be on dialysis in order to survive. I'm 32 mother of 1 beautiful 8 year old daughter and am now 5 1/2 months pregnant and am expecting a son in december. I will be put in the hospital when I become 6 months. I guess I really need some support,i'm so worried about leaving my husband and my 8 year old daughter. I know i'm very lucky to have be able to carry this child. Anyone been through this or know anyone who has? :?: :?:
