Quote From: seavenjohi, im casie, i carried a full term baby boy aug. 06-may 07. i was 37 weeks along, went into labor and after about 5 hours, the midwives could not find the heart beat( i was using the midwives for a home birth). i was transfered to the hospital,(nurses were crap, but the doctor was the best in the area) delivered a beautiful baby boy seaven jo, he was a stillborn. i was there for a week recovering from transfusions and mri and ultrasounds for my leg. i went though placenta abruction, which happens for 1 out of 100. i was only 16, people say its different when it happens when you are a teen, like its not as important, that i can go on with my life. thats not true, i have to face things everyday, from teachers telling me it does not matter that i lost my babyl, that i should be happy it happened, to having trouble walking because of a screwed up epidural causeing neve damage.
i believe that dr. phil should do a show on pregnacy loss, and this show coming up , this week, makes teen pregnacy look horrible, like we are a horrible person to even be carring a baby, even if its a mistake
hi cassie. I am sorry for your loss. What people are saying to you is cold. Losing a baby at any age is traumatic and they should be there for you not telling you its a good thing. It is never a good thing to lose a baby. And at least you were being mature about the pregnancy instead of some teens who are immature and whine. I think Dr. Phil should do one on pregnancy loss but most people don't want to hear about it and just tell us to get over it. But keep your head held high and just try to ignore them. You need support and we are all here for you.
sincerely,
tanya
