brcttabitha- I agree, first pregnancy or 10th pregnancy, a mother should be treated with care and respect at all times and not brushed aside. Its amazing how before you are in the situation, you always think you wouldnt be able to cope with things like you did, like having to give birth knowing your little ones wouldnt make it. But when you are there, you seem to get through it. I was the same. After i found out our little one had passed, i shocked myself that i wasnt in a hurry to get her out. I really feel for you with your precious twins, Im so sorry that by the time you got to hold them or see them they had already passed. Sending you all the strength you need right now. Thanks for the congrats, she is the result of one extremely stressed out, worrysome pregnancy but all worth it. I hope you are holding one or two healthy babies very soon.
dd0207-ABSOLUTELY!! You make sure you do. I did. I saw my OB weekly around the time i lost my baby (so from 14 to 21wks) and any other time i said to her i was stressed and needed to come in a week instead of a fortnight. I saw her fortnightly if i didnt see her weekly. She was fantastic and extremely patient and kind. She had gone through the loss with me (she wasnt at fault so i stayed with her) and delivered her, so she did everything in her power to help keep me calm and happy. I found the mw's to be fantastic too and anytime i saw any of them for monitoring or something they would tell me if i was worried about anything, no matter how trivial, to make sure i ring and they would be more than happy to check me over. It was nice to be made to feel my anxiety was warranted and not just "silly and over reactive". Sending you lots of strength. I hope you are holding a happy healthy little bundle soon.Krsti I'm so glad you got extra special care with your next pregnancy. I will be insisting to be checked at least once a week with my next and will be as neurotic as I please!!
