i was pregnant with twins and at 21 weeks i lost them, i had lower abdomenal pains and i was dismissed saying it was probably just the babies moving or the uterus stretching, the next morning (which was fathers day) about 2am i had to go to the bathroom and was undecided if i really wanted to get out of bed to go, hehehe, i finally decided i really had to go, when i went i noticed a little blood, i went running into bedroom screaming for hubby to wake up and told him about the blood, so he tried calling the dr and while he was trying to get ahold of the dr for some reason i went back in bathroom and there was even more blood then first time, so hubby hung up phone and called 911, i was rushed up to the maternal ward and hooked up to fetal monitors, and the nurse had trouble finding both heartbeats cause babies were moving all around, finally she got them and said they sound good, so hubby went home to get some sleep and i stayed at hospital, well about 45 minutes later nurse checked me and said things weren't looking good and the dr had to examine me further, so i told the nurse to call my husband and tell him to come back to hospital, he said when he answered phone he knew it wasn't going to be good, he flew back to hospital and dr examined me and said these babies are coming, that my son had dropped into birth canal, some time later i started having contractions and nurses trying giving medicine through iv but nothing was working, i finally gave birth to my son at 9:41am and my daughter at 9:53am, they both passed away in hubbies arms, they lived for about 5 minutes give or take, so by the time i got to see them and hold them they had already passed away, we had them baptised, and dr told us that i was able to stay in hospital for the 3 days cause i had vaginal births, so we had babies stay with us the whole time in room with us, held them as much as possible, took pics,
hospital told us about a professional picture guy that takes pictures for couples that loose there babies, so we had them contact him for us and he came in and took a bunch of different pictures and he put them on cd and has music playing in background, we had them cremated and now they are both in our bedrooms in there erns, i did a march of dimes walk
september 27th in there memory, we're hoping to release balloons this wkend in there memory as a little memorial just hubby and i, i switched obgyns, we met with a maternal fetal medicine dr so that's all set when we decide to get pregnant again, we got pregnant by ivf, only had to do it once, they put 2 embryos in hoping 1 of the 2 would stay and both ended up staying, i had an appointment with my obgyn the monday before fathers day and she had told us after we lost them that it's common if a cervix is going to go that it goes at that time, well if that was the case why isn't she checked my cervix at the appointment that monday, especially since i was carrying twins and carrying low and have had complications in the past with pregnancies. well i hope to hear back from you.
