lady on 18-34 forum

THere is a lady on the above that has just lost her stillborn daughter and there is a photograph of her, it is just so so sad that this beautiful little girl has been taken... i feel like crying for them all.  Leave a note for this lady if you remember it's just so tragic and anyone's worst nightmare... how does something like this happen?  How can you have a healthy pregnancy and then lose your child in childbirth.. it frightens me!!

I forgot about the cord being a problem claire and I probably shouldn't have brought it to the attention of the May mums because I wouldn't want to worry anyone, which this could do... I just felt so awful for this lady and that lovely little girl.  Claire, as a first time mum, don't worry about this, I just looked it up too and it's like a one in a million chance... and again I hope this post doesn't upset anyone but well, just makes us spare a thought for women who aren't so fortunate!!

ive just had a look, i cant beleive she was 38.5weeks that is so scary, i also googled the cause theres nothing to prevent it other then dont drink, take drugs,go on rollercoasters etc. most causes are because the cord gets tangled or has a knot in it, apprently its very unlikely to happen but still a chance, or cord gets round babies neck.
