No, baby is too big. They may have to do one for the placenta after delivery though. They don't want to do a c-section as it would mean any future deliveries would have to be sections because they would have to do a vertical incision.

I am so sorry to see this. My wife and I went through two and I can assure the pain and heartache you feel will ease with time. Take comfort in knowing it is nothing you did, could have prevented or should have done. It was your body's way of telling you there was something wrong and as hard as it is to accept it is for the best. You and your significant other be there for each other, talk about it, don't let it rule your emotions. When your pregnancy is successful all that weight you feel right now will be gone, I promise.

What I way going to say, but only better. My wife had three miscarraiges prior to delivering triplets. Time and patience. Before you know it, you'll be hard pressed to remember LBK.
 
Amjon... we are very sorry to hear this. Count us among those who have 'been there' multiple times, too, and who are sharing your grief. Hang on to Rob's post above. What he said is nearly exactly the same things that we were told each time, and it is the absolute truth.

Thanks everyone. My body is still holding onto her tight for now. Hopefully the drugs will start working. The first dose didn't really do anything, hopefully the second will as they are 12 hours each.
 
I am ever so sorry to hear about your loss, especially at this time of year. I can only imagine how difficult loosing your baby so late in pregnancy, but hopefully the kindness of your caregivers and love of your family will comfort you. We too had a miscarriage before a successful pregnancy, and what helped us through it was the thought that our baby was just waiting for a healthy body to come - we tried again as soon as we can and now have a son. We lost ours while on vacation, we left the hospital and went straight to downtown Disney and bought 2 pictures intended for the nursery. It was our way of saying everything will be fine and now those pictures are in our sons room and some of the most prized possessions.
 
I'm not home right now, and only have my phone for Internet but I wanted to say I'm so sory for what you're going through and wish I could reach through my phone and give you a big hug. :(
 
I will just echo everyone else's thoughts ! It's time like these were this community really stands out. There are many that have been through it and can help in any way you need.
 
I'm still waiting. My cervix is a fingertip dilated now, so they are going to try a med to physically push it open. Hopefully that will get me open enough to move faster. A friend called the funeral home for me and they are going to donate a funeral, so that is a relief.
 
Oh hun, I hope that process is over for you soon. If you need some financial assistance with no strings whatsoever attached, I don't see why we couldn't set up a Pay Pal account for that and I know plenty of people on here including myself, would be more than happy to contribute to it. Let us know. You are going through enough as it is.

Thanks. I may need it for the hospital bill as I'll be here at least 4 days. I don't know what my final bill will be, but I'm sure it will be substantial.
 
Please do not worry about your hospital bill - I am sure you hospital has a financial services department to help people who can't afford their bills. They could well just write it off, or minimally significantly reduce it and give you a favorable payment plan. Hospitals are great at helping, they will take great care of you!
 
I am going to tell the truth and say I cried when I read this. In case you haven't noticed throughout the years, children are my soft spot. For someone to go through what you are is horrible. You will always love her. I truly truly am sorry.
