Baby Lee

My story is a simple one is words, but emotionally it is the roughest event I have ever been through. My pregnancy was planned, and with medical issues I thought getting pregnant would be the last thing that could happen to me. I went in for my monthly check up and the doctor was unable to locate the heartbeat. It didnt really click that the baby may not have one. The doctor sent me in for a sonogram, they ended up doing an interuterine sonogram and I saw my baby for the first time, but without a heartbeat. At 14wks my baby should have been bigger I knew before the technician said a word, that my baby was gone and there was no turning back from the emotional stress that I felt, and the overwhelming greif of loosing my child, even earlier in the pregnancy. Friday I went in for a D&C as we had to remove my baby so prevent infections, and further trauma. I dont know what to do with myself. I am honestly scared to ever get pregnany again, because Im afriad to go though what I just went though. All I want is my baby back and I can have that.

I recently had a classical c section about four month ago due to the fact that five month of being pregant, my water broke so i was admitted into the hospital where they kept me until the baby was viable where they can give that shot to help with the baby lungs. it so happen that i made it to the 26wks, meanwhile the baby heart beat was dropping so without delay i was told their have to performed the classical c section,because the baby was breach fear for myself and child' s life i agreed. so they did what they thought they had to do and my daughter was born, she lived for 10 hours and died,sad. now for some raeason i kept blaming myself for her death and swear to get pregant again to make things right, four months after now today i am pregant again and i am very sceard that it will happen again, so i know am at risk, but want i want to how serious is the risk of being pregant so soon. waiting for a honest reply.............wanet

My baby Colin

All I wanted to do was give my son a little brother or sister. I always wanted 2 kids or maybe even more as long as we could afford them. My second pregnancy was uneventful meaning no problems. Nothing was ever wrong with our little boy. I felt him moving all the time. He seemed to always have the hiccups. My son who was 4 at the time, used to love putting his hands on my belly to feel the baby move. My due date was November 3rd which was also my dad's birthday. What a treat that would have been to have the baby on the same day. On Oct 29th I went into labor it was about 2 in the morning. I had contractions and everything was moving along. My husband and I went to the hospital and checked in. The first nurse to come in did an ultrasound. And he was not moving. She thought it was the machine so she got another ultrasound machine and still nothing. Of course at this time my heart is racing and i am preparing myself for the worst. A doctor comes in and confirms that my baby has died. Total devastation. Why us? My first question was what do i tell my son at home? We told him during the whole pregnancy that he was getting a little brother. And now here I was heartbroken. The hardest part is that we have no idea what happened. I had a doctor's appointment that week and everything was fine. We heard the heartbeat. We never got a reason. The reason for death is unknown. What the heck is that? I beat myself up still. It will be 2 years on 10/29/08. How could I not have known that something was wrong with my baby? How stupid could I be? I still think like that. We decided to try to get pregnant again. We waited about 6 months and then we started to try. It took us 11 months to get pregnant again. This pregnancy ended at 6 weeks. I had some blood and went to the hospital right away. And yes my baby was gone again. Maybe we are only meant to have 1 son here on earth and another son in heaven. Maybe that was it. I don't know. I know I am just rambling but my thinking is all over the place because it's October and this by far is not favorite month. Do I try again? Who knows. Not me that's for sure.
