So sad, the totally unnecessary death of the child!
Regards,
I have personally known of two different cases where women went to the hospital ill and gave birth, not knowing they were pregnant. Yes, they were both heavy.
The one I knew the father/husband very well. His brother called him at work to tell him that he was a father and he didn’t believe his brother. Then his father called him and told him to head to the hospital as he was a father.
I saw the deer in the headlights look on his face as he shared the story with me. The guy is intelligent and no slouch. Apparently his wife had perpetual problems of missing periods so she didn’t notice.
Another very close female friend of mine has two sets of female organs. “Uterus didelphys” is a condition where a female is born with two sets of reproductive organs, including two uteruses, two cervixes, and sometimes two vaginas, due to the failure of the Müllerian ducts to fuse properly during fetal development. This rare condition affects about 0.3% of the population.
She has two wonderful children, but had many miscarriages and complications during pregnancy. The Dr’s warned her that she could get pregnant while she was pregnant and not know it. Her periods continued through pregnancy in her second uterus.
