Late Term and Child Loss

Devastated.

I'm 19 weeks and Tuesday night my water broke. Baby is no longer moving but there is still a heartbeat. They are telling me that there is a 1% change that the water will replenish and I will carry this baby to a age that she will make it. More than likely I will be going into labor any time. I'm terrified about how that is going to go. My baby girl is too young to make it and her daddy and I just can't bear to see her. I have no idea what I'm going to do.

 

I'm trying to believe in miracles.

  • I am so sorry! I hope everything works out. 

    Pin case things don't go well and your precious little girl comes early, don't worry yourself about seeing her. You'll make the best decision for you at the time. Mu husband and I did not look at our little boy but in hindsight I wish we had. If you choose not to see her, know that it's okay. It does not make you a bad mother. I would recommend, however, asking for pictures in case you change your mind. That way you can look if you want or not. At least you have the option.

    We do have our little baby's footprint and I am SO happy to have it.

    Best of luck. We are here for you!

  • I'm so sorry you are going through this.  Try to be hopeful.  If she does come early, just know that whatever you decide is the right decision for you.  I will say that from other stories I have read with similar situations, no one has regretting seeing their child.  Much love and hugs to you and your family and I will be thinking of you.

    I agree w/above... When first going through the delivery I thought I could not see my baby... I'm now happy I did ... he was beautiful.. but there is nothing wrong with either decision you make here..

  •     I lost my little girl on saturday. I cant imagine your situation as it is a waiting game. I will pray for a miracle for you. They do happen. I am starting to realize that every healthy baby that is born is a miracle. I didnt think I would want to hold my baby. I was afraid to see her come out. So I didnt watch. But they cleaned her up and I held her and she was amazing. So tiny and perfect. I could see so many of our dominant features in her. Have faith in your nurses and doctors. Tell them exactly what you want. They will make it happen. I will be thinking about you tonight like I think of all the moms on here. They are all amazing women.

  • I am so very sorry that you have to be here. I know how difficult and overwhelming this must be. Don't worry about the delivery just yet. You will make the right decision when the time comes. 

    I will say that I chose not to see my first. I was scared and in shock and regretted it after. My husband also felt strongly about not seeing him. When my 2nd came around, we held him and spent time with him. I would not take those moments back for the world. You will surprise yourself will how strong you will be.

    If you have any questions.... Please feel free to PM me.  In the meantime, I'll be praying for that miracle.  (( hugs ))

     Our baby boy,Logan, was born still at 19w3d on 7/1/2011
    Our 2nd baby boy, Mason, was born still at 20w3d on 1/31/2012

     After a much needed sanity break... we are praying for our rainbows

  • I'm so sorry you're going through this right now. I am hoping the best for you.

  • Miracles happen honey and we will be praying for yours.  Hugs and T's and P's to you.  Don't worry about what to do until you are there in the moment, because you won't know the outcome or your true feelings until then.

    Huge huges hugs and lots of prayers.

  • I really wish you the best. I lost my twins 2 weeks ago. My water broke on a Sunday morning and they made me deliver them at night :-( . I opted not to see them because I was devastated. I don't regret not seeing them because I knew what was going to happen. I would have fainted. I want to keep the memories from my ultrasounds. We will be praying for you, keep us updated.
  • I am so sorry for what you are going through.  I wish you the very best and hope that you will be in the 1%.  

    Hugs,

    Jenn 

    We are so thankful that our second daughter, Lillian Elizabeth "Lily", was born healthy and happy on February 11, 2013.  We love her to pieces.  

    We lost our first daughter, Hannah Grace on May 4, 2011.  She was buried on May 14 during a beautiful service at my home church. We are grateful that if she could not be here with us, that she is healed and whole with the Lord. We look forward to the day when we will get to meet her. We love her so much.


  • Thinking of you. I REALLY hope you are the 1%.
