Grieving and Producing Milk

i lost my son at 29 weeks due to a in utero stroke that caused massive brain damage. i delivered on friday a beautiful baby boy 3lbs 13oz sleeping.. a piece of me died with him.

mentally i am a wreck. physically even though the l&d was really traumatic i am mostly ok.

question about milk production, i was told to strap them down, but they are growing HUGE… how long do i strap them down? is there anything else? when will my body get the hint no baby is here?

Just keeps getting worse

after the injection & mifi drove all the way to hospital (2 hours)… they won’t give me the second set of pills because now baby is transverse. i absolutely don’t want a c section , i don’t want scars to look at every day of this horror i have had to indure.

anyone had this happen? were you able to move baby?

i went to my 28 week appt they saw a ventricle in the brain that was 1.5x the size it was supposed to be. after a fetal mri, they tell me its like lightening striking there was a grade 1 perinatal stroke with Ventriculomegaly.

best case scenario is cerabal palsy… idk what could be best or worst then that.

im meeting with pedatric neurosurgeon to go over exact quality of life expectations.

im a mom to a beautiful bright 4 year old and i cant imagine bringing someone into this world who will be in so Much pain and live a fucked up existence for however long.

i just never expected to make this choice, i did ivf for this baby after 4 miscarriages the last one being a partial molar pregnancy. we got every single test known to man… yet here i am.
