Hi... my sister's baby died in utero at 39 weeks. She was devastated as this was her 3rd pregnancy. She lost the 1st one in the first trimester, the second one in the second trimester, and then this one at 39 weeks. The reason... a clot had developed and blocked the cord that fed the babe, killing her. My sister had to develop this babe and she had a funeral for her to help her say good-bye. She said being able to give her baby a proper burial helped her say good-bye. Maybe that would help you be able to grieve and say good-bye to your wee babe.

My sister went on to her 4th pregnancy, was put on low-dose aspirin for the entire time to prevent any possible clots, and delivered a healthy baby girl.

Best wishes to you as you cope with this loss.

Hi... where I said she had to develop this babe, I meant she had to deliver this baby...

I'm so sorry for your loss. I have lost 2 children. My 1st was 4 months old and my 2nd was a stillbirth at 32 weeks. If you ever need someone to talk to please feel free to PM me. May God give you the strength and courage you need.

this is an experience that is earth shattering ...i lost fern my first born at around 30 weeks , i really think the only way to be able to deal with this is by holding her after you give birth , this time was so precious to me at the time , and for her little spirit...naming her and her funeral all helped the whole family grive/showrespect/talk about loss etc etc
shed have been 16 this yr , i think about her often but still enjoy life now...i have 4 more children now and this has helped channel the deep love you feel as a mother ,please PM ME IF YOU NEED ANYTHING

My son Brody was born still at 32 weeks 04/16/08 .. The delivery was a traumatic but healing event all in one . No real reason was givn even after many tests .. You will need to just trust in God that the baby is loved and cherished in heaven .. Jill
