Oh hun im in exactly the same predicament as u know we lost a twin too - we however do not know which sex survived. If your on facebook there are some great homebirth groups you could join - they do meetings etc and you could meet up and chat to others in similar positions raise your concerns etc. eperienced midwives / doulas etc attend too so always a professional to chat to.
i have a consultant appt on monday at the moment i feel any planning is jinxing the baby that's left ;-( I'll be nearly 20 weeks then so will hopefully begin to feel happier about everything I want to see what the consultant says our baby was 15 weeks when he (i think) died so i don't know if it adds risk to the birth or not.......have they said anything about it to you?
Because I'm having multiples, my midwife wants me to deliver the babies at her house, which is close to the hospital. So I will be packing a small bag and my birth supplies to take there. I guess I'll probably do that within the next month... although I don't expect to go into labor until close to my due date (mid-June).
No hun I was only about 9 weeks though so they said tat the body would just "absorb" it naturally. At 15 weeks Im imagining it was more developed and that perhaps will still need to be delivered at birth - I have no idea I am afraid - i hope that thats not the case. Make sure you ASK all the questions you have going on in your head even if they seem silly. xxx
