[QUOTE="Robinredbreast, post: 1534057, member: 44643"] Hi sorry to hear of your bad experience, it is worrying time when things go wrong. I had my daughter at 33 weeks, I had HELLP syndrome, it was an emergency, full anesthetic C section, it was critical. I didn't see my baby for days, she was in SCBU and I was in a room next to the nurses station. I was bed bound, on a sliding scale and monitored 24 hours. When I was well enough to go to SCBU, she had a little tube up her nose, going down to her stomach. Eventually I expressed my own milk, but had no physical contact with her prior to that, it was very upsetting, so heartbreaking, but I had to get myself better, we got through it, she is 16 and a typical teenager. At the end of the day, we both survived and that was the main priority. I hope your next pregnancy will be a happier one, hormones play a big part in our feelings, especially being a new mum, honestly you have nothing to feel guilty about, some things just don't go to plan, I'm sure he will grow up into a happy, healthy, well adjusted boy and he will know how much he is loved. Take care. [/QUOTE]
