My friend found out her baby had died in the womb, she was almost 20 weeks. I didnt know she was pregnant because I had a m/c about 3 months ago and she didnt want to upset me. I only found out because she sent a text to me meant for someone with a similar name to mine. She was due to go in today to start things off (not entirely sure what was going to happen) but on Tuesday morning she gave birth to her baby boy, she didnt hold him and discharged herself straight away as hospital couldnt contact her husband and refused to do it from her phone! She text our other friend to tell her as I was at work and my friend later told me. Since then she has been a wreck understandably but she wont open up and I dont want her to until she is ready. We have been helping with getting kids to school and having them for tea etc. Today we had coffee and she was as well as can be expected. I have just been on fb and her husband came on thanking me for being there especially today with the extra upset.... told him I was lost and asked what had happened. She went for a check up today and they must have scanned her as they have found a little girl who was obviously hiding behind her brother. She was a lot smaller and they are going to take her in next week to remove the baby. How the hell do we help her through this? She must feel so alone. There is only me and our other friend and her husband that know what has gone on because like I said no one knew she was even pregnant. I know she wants to talk but something stops her. Her husband says it has hit her tonight and they are waiting for the doctor to come and give her something.
