Twice in a row, after 6 good pregnancies, I have lost my babies at 18 wks, and have found that they both passed at around 14-15 wks... It just seems so strange that the EXACT thing would happen twice, at such a late stage.
If I have a D&C can they still find out what happened, or should I push to wait if things happen themselves? They have siad that since bub passed a little while ago, we shouldn't wait in case of infection though....
But I need to know... I am having no more, I just cant stand this, and Adam was booked for a vasctomy referal soon anyway, but I need to know why this has happened to my babies....
I thought it was routine to do testing on the baby etc when they do a d&c. I know for mine I got a report back a few weeks later detailing if there were or werent any genetic issues and so on.
Is it really dangerous to wait and see bub will come naturally??
I know it might sound so silly to some, but I want to see my baby.... however he/she is.. I know it could be traumatic, but the scan last night showed such a pretty bubba.... god I wish the tears would stop
I replied on your other thread about your loss. I am not sure about waiting and having the baby naturally but I know you can certainly ask?? Were you seeing a midwife, could you ring her? Also, there is no rush for it to happen right now, so take your time and perhaps you will end up with a DC but dont feel time pressured into it first thing this morning. Just make sure you are comforatble with the decisions and the things they are telling you, and ask questions even if it seems like it is annoying them, it's your body, your baby and of course you can see the baby and take that path as part of the grief process.
Jodi it is probably too late for them to tell if your sweet baby had a chromosomal disorder if she/he passed about 4 weeks ago.
I lost 3 babies in the second trimester after having 4 healthy pregnancies also & I understand your questions and shock. It is possible & probable (IMO) that you have some type of clotting disorder. Your Dr will test you for a barrage of things - sadly & confusingly sometimes we have conditions that haven't yet been given a name or a test.
I was able to have Imogen after using heparin and steroids due to a clotting disorder after saying goodbye 6 times (3 of those Angels were in the 2nd tri).
To me it is not a coincidence that your babies all flew away at roughly the same time. If you need help or support with uncovering some answers I am here.
Can they find out whats wrong if i have a D&C?
