IN REPLY TO: 2nd miscarriage...any thoughts?
AUTHOR: pjean776
First of all, my heart goes out to you. Don't give up! I had 3 miscarriages before giving birth to my first son who is 12. They were all before my 12th week and the doctors were unable to tell my why, just that 1/3 of all pregnancies end in miscarriage. A few years ago we decided to have another baby and got pregnant instantly. My pregnancy seemed normal and baby was great right up until 40 weeks when he died due to his umbilical cord and was born stillborn at 40.2 weeks. He was almost 8 pounds and otherwise perfectly healthy. This was the biggest shock and heartache of my life. I became pregnant again 6 months after we burried him. I am now looking at my perfectly healthy 3 month old daughter. Unfortunately not all pregnancies are viable and not all babies survive. I feel blessed to have the two healthy happy children that I do. Don't give up, I am sure you will have a healthy baby someday.

Katherine
