I confess I am having trouble with all these terms so please bare with me as I fumble through this.
My little one died inside me before Christmas last year. I did not find out about it until my 20 week scan in January. I had carried him for weeks thinking everything was fine. I even thought he was moving.
I suffer from IBS so my own body often kicks me just like a baby would.
I have 3 wonderful children already, 7,6 and 3 and they all came in to see the new baby at the ultrasound with my husband. As I walked in I thought I felt it kick. I was so happy. the kids were so excited.
the ultrasound was very short. the sonographer saw straight away that something was wrong. I could see it to. There was no heart beat. No colors to show the blood flow.
My husband did not notice. He thought that the baby moved and was telling the kids so, I wanted to believe him but it was just the way the scanner was moving.
The sonographer switched off the machine and told me as gently as she could that there was no heartbeat.
I am a controlled sort of person, but I screamed. I yelled for the kids to be taken from the room.
How could I not have known?
Why did I take the Kids with me?
Has anyone else thought they felt movements after the bub had died?
Three days later I had to be induced. I had to have them scan me again first because I still couldn't believe it. My own stomach was still 'kicking' me.
