Born sleep

Hello, I just want to say to everyone who is pregnant especially to women who are pregnant in third trimester please just take one advance from me. If you will think that your baby has changed the routine started kicking in different hours or is kicking more than normal please go to hospital. Please ask about scan go even if you are not pretty sure , go even if it middle of the night just check . I was in 38 weeks pregnant so close to have my baby I thought nothing can happen, and happened my little one born sleep just like that his heart has stopped and I couldn't do anything more. Was too late. I don't understand why in UK IVF pregnancy is normal pregnancy without any extra scans or care. Babies from IVF should be out around 36 weeks to avoid any kind of risk especially born sleeping which is more common with IVF. It's been hard seven weeks and If I could save at least one mum I would be really happy. Please always check pattern of your baby because my pregnancy was always perfect and tragedy happened anyway.

I am so sorry to hear what your going through. I'm in UK and my little boy was an ivf baby. Our miracle after 18 years and consultant induced me at 38 weeks because i pushed for it early and im so glad i did. I was scanned every 2 weeks but somewhere between the 36 week scan and his birth at 38 weeks the cord started failing. My baby hadn't grown at all in 2 weeks and his birth weight was exact same as estimated weight 2 weeks prior. I dread to think if they kept me waiting . I don't know if ivf increases risk of cord failing but definitely agree if something doesn't feel right speak up . My gut wanted him out at 37 weeks and I wish I'd pushed for that week as we spent a few weeks in nicu with complications. Nobody should have to go through what you did . Sending you so much love and support.

I'm really happy that your outcome was different l, and baby survived. I can't change anything, I can only change my life for better. In my pregnancy everything has happened in the middle of nowhere and whenever I had midwife appointment everything was perfect.

Hello, I haven't got clue what was wrong I'm gonna gonna have result between 6-12 months. Unfortunately you have to wait for ages in UK for any result after post mortem plus my placenta and different genetic tests . Everything should have come together.In couple weeks maybe months I am gonna have also meeting where they will once again from the beginning will check my history of pregnancy.

I am so so sorry. It's unimaginable what you have been through. And having the compassion and care to think of others at what must be a time of extreme pain and sadness... You must be the most kindhearted person and I truly believe your post will save lives so, just, thank you.

I said to myself that God had different plan than me and my husband. Sometimes you can plan as you want but the last word doesn't depends from you. This situation showed me that you can do everything only if you want . Missing this little small person, my little Cobe is extremely hard, that's the hardest part. I found energy I asked Cobe to give me strength for every day and I am strong because of him and for him. This is part of my life, but with time I'm gonna be able speak about Cobe without the tears , being grateful that I could give him short but happy life where he could feel only love and no pain.

I'm so very sorry for your tragic loss. I lost one little boy at 30 weeks and another boy at term lived for an hour after birth so I know the pain all too well. You are so wise already so early on in your grief journey when it's all so raw and painful. You will always miss your beautiful Cobe but it won't always feel this painful. You will come to think of him and the beautiful life full of love that you gave him, with more love than pain. A term I love from the grief work of David Kessler is 'cherished wound'. Already you are helping people with your story and I hope this allows you to feel a bit of strength and comfort during this time xx

I'm so sorry for your loss of your beautiful little Cobe, and for your deep heartbreak. It's truly devastating. I lost my baby boy Louis at 29 weeks back in 2021. For me, it is a grief that I carry always but with time, and tears, and processing, my world began to make some sense again around my loss. And I am forever grateful my little Louis chose me as his mama. Be gentle with yourself, this is such a raw time. Sending love 💛
