Technical Difficulties

Lee

As you know, the advisers here on DS have recently started their blogs. We had many weeks of testing prior to beginning this feature, in an effort to weed out any technical glitches. It seems we may have missed one.

Posts referring to pregnancy and babies have been appearing in the infertility, miscarriage, and stillbirth communities. These …

More Reasons to Quit Smoking

Lee

You keep telling yourself, “I’ll quit when I get pregnant. I’ll have to quit, and it will be easier because I have a good reason”. Well, guess what? I’m about to give you a bunch of reasons why you need to quit before you get pregnant, (and this goes for your partner,too!)

Grieving Mother's Day

By Julie May 9, 2008 11:36pm 42 Comments

JulieC

This will be the second Mother's Day without my mother and I am noticing a trend. About mid-April it starts - the commercials, the billboards, and newspaper ads collectively describing the "perfect" gift to give or place to go for Mother's Day. At first I felt a slight twinge of sadness, but being the well trained therapist that I am, I ignored …

The tears just wont seem to stop today. No matter how much I occupy myself. My friends are having their babies and it hurts me so bad. It is a constant reminder of what should have been. I miss y...

Sunday, July 6, 2008 | A Painful story

I made it thru mom's birthday. But I found myself remembering our last New Year's together. It was New Years eve 99. We sat in the hospital and watched the ball drop in Tim Square. She was watching 2000 come in and 1999 out. I wanted this whole nightmare to be over. We sat there wondering how to beat this thing called cancer. I damnned the Dr to hell and back. On Christmas Eve 99 he told ...

Yesterday I went to the gym and I feel awesome today. I warmed up on the bike for 5 minutes and then went on the eliptical for 20 minutes for cardio my heart rate go up to 170 and it is only supposed to be between 142 and 152. I had a hard time slowing it down within that 20 minutes. It felt great. After the eliptical I worked out on the weights for 40 minutes. I can...

The good/flip side of our personality is always better!

Sunday, July 6, 2008 | A Positive story

Ok, so Im tender hearted, trusting, generous, sensitive, easily moved, and a deep feeler, these are all good things but bad people can make you feel stupid about being this way...for a moment..but I am happy with who God made me to be, although I am overly opinionated and give unsolicited advice, its only because I care. Im not going to change who I am or how I feel because some MORE people have ...

Direct your anger at the source THERAPY

Saturday, July 5, 2008 | An Educational story

We are creating characters that look like our tenants, we are going to play Wii and box against them and knock them out. I feel so frustrated that I cant take my anger on the source. Our tenant was an exmarine and very intimidating, I am upset, I got totally taken advantage of being a nice person to them. I feel pissed and stupid, so I need to release it, Matt doesnt want to hear it you'all d...

It was a non smoking contract!

Saturday, July 5, 2008 | A Venting story

Unfrickin believable, I cleaned and cleaned and can't get rid of the smell or the brown ceilings or smell in 3 bedrooms. I am pissed. They are going to pay. I will find their forwarding address and file a claim against them. That is ridiculous! I feel so taken advantage of. We hauled a trailer full of their trash away today. I took before pictures and after, so screw them!!!!

Stillbirth Information

A stillbirth occurs when a fetus which has died in the uterus or during labour or delivery exits a woman's body. The term is often used in distinction to live birth or miscarriage. Most stillbirths occur in full term pregnancies.

Some sources reserve the term "stillbirth" for a fetus which has died after reaching mid-second trimester to full term gestational age. For example, in the United Kingdom, "stillbirth" is used to describe an infant delivered without life after 24 weeks gestation. The sources that use this definition tend to use the term "miscarriage" if the death occurs earlier in development. In contrast, other sources use the term "stillbirth" regardless of the stage of fetal development.

See more Stillbirth Information.
