I'm still not 100% sure why this has happened or if anyone has experienced the same thing?
Thursday I was completely fine until lunch time, I went to use to bathroom and felt something bulging out of my vagina, my midwife saw me immediately and said I had a vaginal prolapse. I asked to listen to the heartbeat which she couldn't find and said as it's an IVF pregnancy she will send me to the EPU for a scan.
The scan showed my son was fine and healthy heartbeat but my waters had passed through my cervix but were all intact and just sitting in my vagina. We decided to try laying on an angle to see if gravity would take the waters back through the cervix as they wouldn't try to put them back until I was 24 weeks.
Later that night contractions started, on and off.
Friday was the same, baby fine contractions still on and off but my cervix had not dilated anymore waters still intact sitting in my vagina mad I was still on stricked bad rest.
Friday night the pressure was really painful and contractions stronger. Cervix not dilated any more
Early hours of the morning on Saturday my baby passed away, his little heart had stopped beating. They gave me four little tablets vaginally and contractions started very strong and the pressure became strong very quickly and my son was born in his waters.
The doctors said its a problem with my cervix being weak if so how could I have possibly held on with my waters intact for pretty much three days.
We don't know if I'll every have another pregnancy it's too raw right now but I'm so scared of ot happening again.
