Still Birth At Full Term

Ellismummy - June 14

Hi i had a stillborn son at 4o wks + 4 days on the 4th May 2010. I am finding it very difficult to cope. This was my first baby and i had a text book pregnancy. My son was born with the cord wrapped tightly around his neck, he was alive 20 mins before my waters broke and we went to the Hospital expecting to have our baby to be told that they could not find his heart beat. I know there are lots of other couples that are going through or have been through this but i feel so alone at the moment. I desperately want another baby, not to replace my son as i know i never could but to try to fill the massive void we now have in our lives. We feel we want to try asap however, i am scared it may be too early as i am aware that you are are greater risk of losing another baby if you body is not healed properly.

Hi Ellismummy I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I can't imagine how you must be feeling... I had a mc on the 5th of January 2010 at 11 weeks (baby only measured 6 weeks), and it was hard enough to overcome that... So my heart goes out to you and your husband. I think you will not fall pregnant if your body and mind is not ready for the next baby. My hubby and I have been ttc since February, but still no luck. So I think that if your doctor says you are physically ready to ttc - go for it. Maybe you will have more luck than us. Lots of baby dust...
