I was just watching tv...

in Late Term and Child Loss
I was watching undercover boss (I know, kinda lame) but one of the people on the show was telling his story and it came out that he lost a daughter last year. She was stillborn. He shared that the Dr. brought her out and told him to spend as much time with her as he and his family needed to.
At first I was so captivated by his story and I felt the sadness but then I felt so angry that there are so many people out there that this has happened to! This shouldn't happen to anyone. I'm grateful that he shared his story, but really wish there was a way to stop this from happening to anyone.

    Yes i know what you mean..
    Ive been active on TB for a little over 4 mths and I have noticed ALOT of new loss moms joining in the last couple of weeks. and it sucks that this happens more than we think, it shouldn't happen.

    I agree. I wish no one had to go through this. It's awful. I totally understand how you feel. It's the worst seeing it on a reality tv show, but it hurts a lot to see it in movies, too. I mistakenly watched Marley & Me got the first time the other day and I was completely blindsided when they go in for their 10 week prenatal appt to find that the baby didn't have a heartbeat. I cried and I was so surprised a movie scenario impacted me so much. When you've been through what we have, it's all too familiar. Ugh.

    I agree.  It never gets easier hearing these stories.  The more I hear them, the more I think it will happen to me again. And the more I get angry that more research isnt being done to prevent these tragedies.

    Yes, it makes me angry, too. When I was on this board two years ago I feel like we had occasional new moms, but there were probably a dozen or so "regulars". I took a break while ttc and while pgal with dd. Now that I'm back there are so many new moms on this board and so many more joining each week it makes me sick. I'm glad that forums like this exist so that we can support each other, but I hate that that's even a necessity.
