Reply #25: What a horrifying experience! [View All]

I too had a baby die inside me, but I was only at 12 weeks and not showing yet, and my experience was completely different from yours in the way it was handled. As soon as it was confirmed that my baby had no heartbeat, it was recommended that I have a D&C two days later, after another two rounds of ultrasound. Yes, it was heartbreaking for me, but your experience puts it into perspective. At least my situation was dealt with quickly, whereas yours was dragged out for weeks.

Your OB should have been censured by the AMA at the very least. It's shocking what happened to you.
