My baby died due to the placenta becoming unattached to the uterine wall. She could not get enough nourishment, or even oxygen. I had scar tissue from a previous surgery, and they think that may have been the cause, but are not sure.
There are alot of different reasons, but very, very few are the fault of the mother, or even the doctors. I was very careful of what I did through all of my pregnancies, and know of two others who lost babies though every precaution was taken. It is painful, but many women go through it, and they don't have to feel alone. As for me, it still hurts 12 years later, but I deal with it. I also went on to deliver two more healthy babies.

Genetic abnormalities
When a miscarriage occurs in the first three months of pregnancy, by far the most likely cause is chromosomal abnormality, a genetic problem. In these cases the body recognises that the pregnancy is unsustainable because of a problem with the fetus and so ends the pregnancy. The same problem is unlikely to occur again in future pregnancies. Because the quality of a woman's eggs is affected by age, the risk of miscarriage gradually rises as women become older.
Maternal problems and illnesses
A miscarriage may also be caused by hormonal imbalances, abnormalities of the womb or cervix, such as incompetent (weak) cervix, blood clotting disorders and maternal infections such as German Measles and Listeria.
External factors
External factors have been linked to an increased chance of miscarriage, including smoking (whether active or passive), excessive alcohol consumption, and very high caffeine consumption. In rare cases miscarriage may be caused by a severed fall or other accident. However, research has not shown any link between early miscarriage and lifting heavy loads, moderate exercise, stress or sex.

The most common cause is chromosomal abnormalities. This is nature's way of dealing with things, hard as it may be to hear.
Other causes could be substance abuse, or accidents.
Every person is different, there is no way of knowing, unless your doctor can give you a definitive answer.

Sometimes they just do. Sometimes it's from a genetic problem, sometimes it's a birth defect. Sometimes the cord suffocates them.
I suppose some would say that babies die because it was not their time to live.

THERE ARE A LARGE NUMBER OF REASONS WHY A FETUS DO NOT MAKE IT. THAT IS WHY IT IS SO IMPORTANT TO GET PRENATAL CARE, REST, AND TRY TO STAY FREE OF STRESS. NOT TO SAY THAT ITS NOT GOING TO HAPPEN, BUT THESE ARE SOME OF THE PRECAUTIONS.

More than likely it is due to chromosomal abnormalities. It is the nature's way of eliminating unfavorable offspring.

Most of the time it's because they weren't growing viably.
