Pregnancy Info HOME

Kat, I am so so sorry...I don't even know what to say. That is just unbelievable. How did you find this out? I don't understand why they had originally said that you miscarried when you didn't. Try not to feel guilty because you know you had no control over this, and you don't have the medical eye to see for yourself if everything looks ok. Do you have anyone supporting you through this? I wonder if it would be a good idea to talk to your friend who had the baby or someone else that is close to you so they can help you out. I know what you mean about the whole lawsuit thing about it making everything worse, but maybe you don't have to go through it yourself. I don't know much about it, but maybe the lawyer would not need you there. I'm sure its hard because you want the hospital to know what they did to you, but you don't want to bring yourself down even more. It is really so scary how we depend on these drs when in reality we have to take care of our own health and double check everything they do. I can tell you are a very strong person and I know you will be ok, I wish I could be more help! You are in my prayers...take care Lynne


Chrnor...I'm so sorry for your loss. We understand what you've been through...although we all took a different route to get there we all lost our baby. Did they do genetic testing on the fetus? They had told me that my baby had genetic abnormalities too and that it would not survive, but I decided to wait it out a little....three wks later the baby passed. They tested the fetus after the D &E, and there were no genetic abnormalities. (I had another issue with a subchorionic hematoma which caused the death which I now know is from MTHFR c677 -a clotting problem - after requesting blood work). Anyway, I'm glad you were happy with your decision about seeing the baby....that is still something I wonder about...They didnt give me that opportunity. Stay strong, and you will have another baby soon, when you are ready. I'll be praying for you! Lynne
