Hello beautiful girls, long time ago maybe not so long 4 months ago I gave birth to my beautiful son, who born sleeping. I didn't know why this happened. I came back to my country make so private test .did some research online.I did plenty of test and I have factor V Leiden , which it means I have thrombophilia. I have never heard about this before. Factor V Leiden thrombophilia is an inherited disorder of blood clotting . With this you can have several misscariage or have a stillbirth. My ladies I'm telling you this because propably I found the reason what happened to my baby and why. it's good to have a answer of course I'm still waiting for results but this is actually good news for me.

It's good to check you blood test for this . If you have this during all pregnancy you need to take heparin injections in your stomach to make your blood thick. I didn't have any symptoms during the pregnancy. Just happened. Maybe some of your misscariage can be because of this and you don't know that you have this like me. Anyway love you all. Keep fighting.

Thinking of you and sending a hug of comfort to you

I'm so sorry for your loss...I had a stillbirth at 39+5 a few years ago and my pregnancy was fine.

I was told my baby boy died when we arrived at this hospital (I was in early labour). It was the worst night ever. My issue was to do with the placenta which you cannot see on a scan, only after baby is born because my placenta was sent to the lab.

This time I had additional scans plus I had joint care between two hospitals in London. I was on aspirin to help blood flow to the placenta.

No baby will ever replace my first-born baby boy.

I hope you are able to grieve...it nevers goes away, you just learn to live with the pain. I hope you are stronger than I was. I went through a great deal of trauma and I'll never forget our sad tragedy.

Lots of love ❤️

Sometimes it happens and some of the things you don't see during the scan. Sometimes you can't change what is coming. I'm ok, grieve is really deep, but I was allowed to myself to feel all the emotions. Sending you lots of love. You little one is looking at you always and everywhere.

Yes you are right. I didn't see it coming.m.i just thought I'm in my final weeks and I'm okay and baby is okay. Every time I reflect I wonder what could have been. But I also know that my baby boy is in heaven and one day we will reunite...that's the biggest comfort I have. I hope you are not alone grieving. Cry. Be kind to yourself. Cry. I am here for you.im so sorry once again. No one will truly understand the devastation, sadness and trauma that comes with a stillbirth towards the end of a pregnancy unless they have been through it.

Yes. This is the moment, you can't even prepare for this. Suddenly you are in the situation, and that is your new reality, we were so close but not enough. I'm ok for now. The process is really long, all journey, well what can I say it happened so it's always gonna be with you. You just have to learn hot to deal with this and how to live in this new world. Thank you so much . Mum of Angel.
