Q: Our Baby Was Still Born
asked by: daddy_neil on September 3rd, 2006
New User, Becoming EHEALTHy
My wife has asked me to post a message on here and I think it is only fair I respect her wishes. On friday night around 1.30am she started having contractions. We called an ambulance and she was rushed to hospital as she was only 21 weeks and 5 days pregnant.

When we got there they called someone to examine her but it was too late, within 10 minutes of arriving she pushed out our tiny baby daughter.

She didn't make a sound as she had already passed away. As you can imagine we are distraught with grief. She weighs 1 lb 1oz.

We have named her angel as this is what she will be. A tiny beautiful angel looking down on us from heaven. We have a few photos of her but I do not feel right posting them on a public forum as they are our private memories.

My wife is still in hospital as there was a few complications. The doctors are trying to determine the cause of death as just eariler in the morning rebecca had felt her kicking around.

We are planning to make funeral arrangments even though legally they aren't required. I ask of you if you can please send some kind thoughts our way in this difficult time.

Kind regards, neil

husband of rebecca (username beckster06)

I Have Also Lost a Baby
I was only 16 weeks along and we had found out before hand that there was something wrong. It is very hard to go through losing a child even if the child had yet to come out of the womb. You have a connection and it is hard to lose it. My thoughts are with you. Mine was a boy. I love him and always will. And if you have religious beliefs someday you will be able to see your beautiful daughter again. It has helped to know that ! Well write me and I will be here for you.

Re: Our Baby Was Still Born
I am so sorry to hear of your loss. Losing a child is so hard. I look at my sons and feel a fear for them and they are grown. Although I have not experienced your pain, I can imagine the sorrow and empathize with you. May god bless you and keep you in the palm of his hand in this trying period. Put your faith in him to give you the strength to endure and know that you will see her again in the next life.
