so, I have been thinking...

and I just need to get this out because I have been thinking about it since I heard.

It's such a horrible thing that happened with that IE nestie who passed away recently after giving birth. I just can't imagine something like this and what my husband would have to go through. This did almost happened to us. Dr.'s told him I was going to die because of the amniotic infection I had. I don't remember it all since I was out of it but he told me later. I try not to think of the what if's but it's hard. I am just so grateful for him and my family....and always of course, you guys. This has just been on my mind and i don't know....just something I needed to say. I think I am just more grateful everyday for what we do have and that we have eachother. Love you all!

That story has been on my mind a lot as well. How often do women die during childbirth these days? (speaking of non-third world countries) Does anyone know?

mrsmacias2008 · September 2009

I have no idea. So many stories I hear are because of things that you wouldn't think will happen.

I hadn't even heard of this but it breaks my heart. How did anyone find out here? Did her DH post or something?

I have read up on this a bit. I think the #1 cause in america is hemmorhage sp?

Good to know. Is the risk the same for C-Sections and Vaginal Births? I'm gonna start googling this as well.

I guess the IE board is really close IRL too. Someone posted over here saying that they found out...I think from the hospital? or a friend?

I dont believe so. From what I have read its mainly because of Placenta Previa, which in most cases if you have it you are given a C-section to reduce the changes of losing too much blood.

C-sections are always higher risk b/c it is surgery.

I am still a huge supporter of scheduled c-sections despite how unpopular that opinion is. However, a lot of my support behind them comes from my medical need for one...but not all of it.

Thanks for the information. I'm going to be researching more about PP. Stories like this freak me out. I feel so horrible for her family and especially her husband!

I love you, too MrsM! I cannot begin to tell you how incredibly thankful I am that you're here. You have helped me so incredibly much after losing Katie Jane.
