Give up my life for my baby to live. I have had this discussion with my family before, if by the grace of God, I were to ever get pregnant, I would have this issue legally taken care of before I went into the labor room. I would never put my life ahead of my child's life.

That would be a tough decision. If I were married, and my Wife was giving Birth, and the Doctor said it was either My Wife or the Child, I would have to save the life of my Wife.
We could always attempt to make another baby or even adopt.

I would choose the baby's life because I have already had a chance at life and the baby has not. Maybe my purpose in life was to give birth to this particular child.

OMG....guys shouldn't even be answering this...such total BS....I would be choosing my life....sorry you holier than thos's out there, but I'm here. The baby doesn't know what it's missing. Secondly...something drove this home for me when I saw a movie (based on a true story) where a mother died in childbirth. The father raising the baby on his own, resented the baby and had a hard time bonding with her. His grief for his wife was so overwhelming he subconsciously took it out on the baby. Eventually he went into therapy and worked things out, but the baby was taken from him for some time while this happened.

Modern medical science negates your premise in most cases.
The proper decision is to separate the two bodies, while both have opportunity to live, and that's that. If the mother's life is imperiled, the separation may result in a preborn's death. However, that is rare. Typically, the mother and preborn miscarry in cases of incompatiblity.
Why do you ask?
"When Innocent Children Sing," Dr. Huang, "Life before Life," Jim Tucker, M.D., "Expecting Adam," Martha Beck, Ph.D., "Education Begins before Birth," O. M. Aivanhov, "Babies Remember Birth," David Chamberlain, Ph.D., all excellent.
cordially,

First off...I'm a guy, so this would never happen to me...BUT, I would pick the babies life over mine. Why, you ask? Because I would have at least lived...and I would want to give the baby a chance to experience life, even if it meant giving up mine...

Since I had other children I think its more impt that I be around to raise them. I think its my duty to do everything that I can to keep myself healthy for my spouse and my family. What good would it do to hand a newborn baby over to a greiving husband to take care of now that his wife is dead. He probably would resent the child for taking away his wife.
