Default Re: Dealing with a loss (stillbirth)
Wow, that amazes me.

Not once in my pregnancy did the doctors bring up the possibility of stillbirth at 40 weeks. Went to 2 different OB/GYN's and was never mentioned. I delivered at just under 42 weeks, and thought "ohhh, she just needs to bake a little longer"... Never during the 2 weeks did they mention anything about possible complications. Nor was it mentioned in the magazines I read, the websites I was registered at, NOTHING!!!!

Thanks for educating me. Duly noted for the future.

Question: When a patient chooses to be induced at 39 weeks, have you ever had any complications with the baby's lungs or anything?
