Yesterday I went for my routine 20 week scan at 20+4 to be told my beautiful boys heart stopped at some point over the last couple of days.
There's no obvious sign as to why. Just that he had a very swollen tummy so they suspect some sort of infection which he was unable to fight.
How can this happen half way into pregnancy. How can I feel him moving around one day, for him to die.
I have to go back to hospital tomorrow to have my labour induced and give birth to him and I'm absolutely, utterly heartbroken. I can't cope and don't feel like this is ever going to get better.
Will I get to see him? I don't even know if I can face it.
I'm dreading facing "the real world" and having everyone's sympathy and asking if I'm ok. I can't do this.
