Late Term and Child Loss

Hemolytic disease of the newborn

Just wondering if this has happened to anyone else. Blaze was my first born, I went 40 weeks and 3 days, he passed after 5 hours. He was a fighter:) Our sitiation is very rare, because it wasn't the common rh factor, also it doesn't usually happen to your first born. Thankfully we are pregnant again, and it is totally in God's hands. Add faith, and you never know the amazing things God can do. Praying for a miracle:)

Re: Hemolytic disease of the newborn

  • I am so sorry for the loss of your Blaze. It sounds like he really was a fighter. I have no experience with hemolytic disease but I am sorry to welcome you to our group. I hope you can find some support here. Feel free to jump in and start posting, Thursdays are when we do our weekly check-ins. The "Loss" check-in is just a general, how are you doing for everyone on the board. We also have a "Pregnant after a loss" check-in you are welcome to join in on.

  • I am so sorry for the loss of your Blaze.  There are just no words that do justice to the feeling of losing a child.  There are several books you may want to check out on the book recommendation thread below. Empty Cradle Broken Heart specifically has a chapter on being pregnant after a loss, and I would highly recommend it.  It put into words a lot of what I was feeling.

    We are all here for you.

    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.


  • I am so sorry that you lost little Blaze.  This is a good place for support with your grief and sorrow.  The women here are amazing.

    I am glad you have your rainbow on the way, like pp said we have a PgAl post weekly and there is also a PgAL board that would likely be helpful as well.

    Huge hugs sweety.  Huge huge hugs.

  • I'm so sorry for the loss of your sweet Blaze.  I have no experience with this, but there are quite a few late loss mamas on PgAL right now, so even though the reasons for our losses are different, we all "get it."
