The baby was born this morning at 7:32 am est. 5 weeks premature. Lungs were under-devlopped but not too bad. There was a blockage in the unrinary tract. Despite neonatal intensive care, the baby survived just 4 hours.
Thank you all for your prayers and good wishes.

I am so sorry for your loss.
Were you asking for any information about trying to understand what may have been wrong...that caused your baby to not survive at 5 weeks premature with the problems you noted? Feel free to email me if u do. I was charge nurse in a level 3 neonatal ICU.

Sorry about your loss. My water broke at 24 weeks and had my daughter at 28 weeks, 13 weeks premature. She had underdeveloped lungs, she only lived for 5 months. What hospital did you go to?

I'm so sorry. The loss of a child is always the hardest thing to deal with.
A line in a movie always struck me as true...
"To bury a husband was hard. To bury my son is against nature."
I believe that. My thoughts and prayers are with you. I'm grieving with you.

What you want to do is stay calm. You getting lower than pressure out about this isn't good for the toddler. they're probably in simple terms waiting that you'll bypass the 38 week mark. i understand its problematic to stay calm, yet attempt problematic because that is whats best on your toddler. Stick it out for yet another week, im positive you and the toddler will be nice. beware of any indicators of exertions although, in simple terms in case. Or something that you imagine would not be accurate, contact your dr. or midwife on the on the spot.

They say God has a plan, and this was part of his plan, he is in heaven looking down on you and thanking you for the time you gave he/her to live.

I'm sorry for your loss..
I share the sadness you and your family feel. I grieve for you. I also had a miscarriage a month ago and I cried hard on the day I lost it. It's ok to cry.. we're just human. I keep you in my prayers.

I'm sorry for your loss. I know it does not seem right and nobody can really tell you why. It does not seem natural to bury your children.
Thank God for the little time you had with your baby - you get to hold it and say goodbye. Take the time to grieve - don't let anybody take that from you, but don't bury yourself and your other relationships with the baby.
