hi
we lost our beautiful perfect son at 23+5 on new years day.due to waters breaking before christmas at 21 weeks. one week after having a normal 20 week scan. why why why? losing at this time in pregnancy is rare (apparently)and very hard cos everybody knows you were pregnant and now dont have the bump anymore. what do we do to deserve such tragedy? trying to stay strong for our 2 year girl but have broke down in front of her. she hasnt asked any questions yet but i know they will come soon thick and fast. any adivce?

Very sorry to hear of your loss, I lost DS2 at about the same period of gestation, the bump to no-bump thing is awful.
DS1 was the same age (2) and he was my life-saver though he never knew it.
I know how numb and empty you must feel at the moment but hope you find comfort in the future. xx

thank you everyone! its a real help to know such wonderful people are out there. we did have time with DS cuddles, foot and handprints and photos to remember him by.he had a teddy and a photo of mummy,daddy and his big sister so he knows his family love him very much.we didnt want him to be alone on his next journey.

OH Bubbster, your last post has made me cry, what a terrible thing for you to go through. I hope you are getting the tlc that you deserve, big hugs to you and your family. My friend had this happen at full term, her little girl just stopped moving and she was gone xxx
