Two weeks ago from today , I had just felt my daughter move moments before going into labor. I was rushed to the hospital because the contractions were so strong and coming close together, to hear doctors say they couldn't find a heartbeat.I had to have an emergency c-section. To see her lifeless body I was(and still am) devastated. I don't understand what happened. I did everything I was suppose to do mentally and physically. I just keep thinking where did I go wrong. I had a autopsy done because I need answers for something that was done right to end wrong.............

I am so sorry Hannahmom. You did nothing wrong. sometimes, these things happen for reasons we will never know. Your baby knows how much you loved her and would have given your own life in place of hers. It was out of your hands. None of us has have the absolute power to keep anyone alive, yet as still birth moms, we often feel guilty and responsible. You did the best you could with all the information you had at the time. It is not your fault.

I feel the same way too... It hurts I ask myself why me? What did I do? I still don't know why ? But it is the painful moment to lose a child and not able to have them in your arms it's is so hard ...
