 im 15yrs.
Old and I found out I was pregnant in
june!!!
Me and my boy friend wanted a baby so bad,
we were happy! I went to all my appt.
All the time and the doctor said that me
and the baby were doing great. But one
thing that I was noticing was that my
stomache wasn't getting any bigger! By
septmber I was going to turn 5 months.
But on sept. 9. 2003 I went to the
hospital because I was having pains and I
felt something pushing the doctors had
said that I was going to have the baby but
I said it was too early they said that it
might not survive. My water had broke and
I felt my baby moving they left my baby
inside of me alive for 4 hours!!! Then
the doctor came to check the baby's
heartbeat and the doctor didn't feel or
hear it. No heartbeat!!!! I was so
upset, and so was my boyfriend. Ihad to
give natural birth to my dead 5 month old
son.... Til' this day I don't know what I
did wrong ? What happened I need
anwsers???????????????? Can anyone help
me???????
I have waited til now... Nothing yet
please help!!!!

This sounds more like a stillbirth then a
miscarriage. The doctor should not under
any circumstances have left your child in
you for 4 hours. I would go to a legal
advisor an look at some possible
options.
Remember these things happen and usually
there is no cause. It was nothing you did
or didn't do during your pregnancy. You
sound very upset (understandably) and I
would suggest you seek some counciling as
these can be some very trying times. I
wish you the best of luck and hope you
make it through this. Stay strong and
hang in there

Don't beat yourself up, these things just
happen. Unfortuanetly, it was meant to
be this way, so when your ready everything
will turn out perfect. Maybe your body
couldn' t deal with, or your little one
wasn't strong enough, but one thing for
sure...He's up there in heaven watching
and waiting for you...You'll meet him one
day. But, for now you have to focus on
new goals and keep everything straight.
Good luck and god bless,
jennifer

And if your not prego, your body is not
ready. Just like birth, you should give
your body a year to completely heal, so
that you have a healthy environment for
your precious little angel. And in
waiting a year, at least you'll be giving
yourself a little time to think this whole
"wanting to be a teen parent" thing over.
I had my 1st at 17 and it was super hard
to finish school, work, and care for him
properly on limited pay. They don't pay
teens that much, and if you can avoid
using government money, cuz when you do
get a job, you'll realize how much it
raises taxes.
Good luck and best wishes,
if you need someone to talk to i'm
here...Jennifer

 i'm so sorry that
you lost your baby that way. However...
From what I can understand... You are
still 15?? Are you sure you really want
a baby now?? I mean... Maybe losing
that baby was god's way of saying you're
not really ready right now. You still
have your entire life ahead of you.
Wouldn't you want to finish school and be
financially stable before you start any
type of family?? I mean... I know I
would want to be able to give my child
everything he or she needed. But at
15... Do you really think that you could
be ready?? And you're lucky to have a
guy that wanted this child as much as you
do. But... Really... A baby does change
everything. You're only 15... Enjoy
being young while you still can.

 by the way... If
you do decide to go ahead and tey again...
Good luck. I hope everything goes right
and I hope you never have to go through
that whole ordeal again. No one should
ever have feel the pain of losing a baby.
Good luck!! But please think about what
I said about you having your entire life
ahead of you.

I completely agree with lan, it coule be
.Gods way of letting you know, not yet.
So just wait it out. Get on birth conrtol
and get condoms and be safe. Finish
school and get a career before you start
deciding on a family. Im sorry you had a
miscarriage, but wait it out before you
decide you want another one. Another
miscarriage might be too painful. You
have so many years to go.

Hey
hey hun I am soo sorry to hear that but
it does sound more like a stillbirth to
me...As for trying for another baby there
is nothing wrong with that feeling. U
lost something and u want it back or
something to replace it.. Its competely
commen and natural to feel this way...
Unfortunaly I think at 15 you should not
try to have another baby... Maybe this
experince was a way of your ody telling
you ,, ur body can not handle having a
baby... Think carefully I would wait..

One thing you need to make sure of is that
you don't have an incompotent cervix.
This is when the cervix begins to dilate
prematurely. If this is the case, you
will need to get it stitched up during
your next pregnancy so that this doesn't
happen again. Other than that, I would
just say you went into premature labor and
your Dr. Acted poorly by not getting the
baby out.

It's a Blessing In Disguise.

I know that that may be hard to hear and
in no way am I going to judge, but, at 15
years old you have your whole life to have
a baby. How old is your boyfriend? Do
you really think that your ready to have a
baby at 15?I'm 25 and on my 3rd. When I
got pregnant with my first I was married,
(now divorced) and I wished to god that I
could've finished school and got my life
on track first before I brought life into
this world. Now I am married, have one
child with my new husband and about to
have another with him so in that aspect my
life is great. But I don't get to see my
first child all that often b/c her father
is mean and only thinks about himself. I
would hate to see a 15 year old to go
through that let alone a child. My
advice is to finish school, go to college
or at least get a good job with benefits
and in a few years like 18 then start
thinking about it. If you are still with
your boyfriend then, then hey, god's on
your side, if not, think about, you would
have a child that you are trying to raise
with no father around, trying to make ends
meat, and passing a child back and forth
from parent to parent. I know many
parents do that but I don't think that
it's far in some ways to the child.
Again, i'm not judging you in any way, I
just want to help.

Pregnancyishard,
yes pregnancy is hard & miscarriages
are horrendous especially one like you
went through.
You did nothing wrong _ the dr on the
other hand - leaving you for 4 hours _no,
not on!! I'd definitely seek legal
advice.
I also think you should get your self
fully checked by an ob/gyn to make sure
that there's no cervix problem or anything
else that could cause another miscarriage
(having said that I had all the tests as
did my husband after I lost our first but
I still lost the 2nd then we had our
daughter then I lost another had a
medically advised termination as he was
trisome 18 then lost our sons twin - so
all the tests in the world don't give
guarantees). Actually pregnancy &
babies just don't come with guarantees.
If you are pregnant again take it easy,
eat healthy, get reasonable exercise &
pray - good luck.
If you're not then get yourself checked
& give your body & your emotions
time to heal after all that you've been
through before trying again.

Girl finish school and get everything
straight before you have a kid. When I
was 15 I didn't know I was pregnet until I
misscarried.. I didnt plan to have a
kid.. I was uh.. Yeah.. It was bad.
Right now I am 17 soon to be 18 and my
period is a no show.. Only spotting that
stopped.. So eh.. Yea.. I wish the best
for you.. Be smart..

Ok pat you know you could try to show some
remorse. She lost a baby for christ sake.
Do you have feelings? Or are you just
some heart less prick? A bunch of people
on here are tired of you playing your
little games. I am 16 and I act more
mature than you. Stop being a prick and
help people out or don't be on here. This
ain't a site to hurt others this is a site
to help people out and show them that
people do care.
