Re: Heartbroken Couple when Their Twins Are Stillborn at 5 Months
I would have them preserved in a jar as a conversational piece or have them bronzed and mounted like a trophy.

Right on! Mount them atop a raccoon or possum, so it looks like they were riding it into battle.

Re: Heartbroken Couple when Their Twins Are Stillborn at 5 Months
As this is my line of work I can tell you first hand how hard it is to be in a room while this is going on. 90% of my job is sunshine and rainbows but this is horrible and at times makes me question my career choices. Your instinct is always to remove the baby(ies) so the parents don't have to see what you see, but 10 out 10 times they want to hold the baby and kiss it and cuddle it for as long as possible. A few month ago we had a birth of a baby with holoprosencephaly and her eyes were fused together in the middle of her forehead so it was 2 eyeballs with 1 lid and as a parent I can't say I would want to see my baby like that.

Omg. So sad. That doctor needs investigating. It certainly seems like she didn’t help the situation.  |

Re: Heartbroken Couple when Their Twins Are Stillborn at 5 Months
The mother mentioned she could tell them apart from the beginning. Diapers were probably just a natural progression in preserving their dignity and respecting their individuality in death. While everyone handles grief differently, I question where the line is drawn between medical staff supporting the parents' readiness to let go and potentially damaging memories (PTSD) as the family experience the baby deteriorating after a few days. I would also be concerned about the risk of attachment; this couple (link below) spent 16 days with their baby after death which seems excessive, and incidentally exploitative of their dead child. I'm sorry for their losses, but I can't think of any reason I'd parade my dead child around, nevermind spend time photographing it in the privacy of my own home. https://metro.co.uk/2017/02/01/paren...e-6420639/amp/ |

Re: Heartbroken Couple when Their Twins Are Stillborn at 5 Months
I have twins. I went into labor at 21 weeks. The sad part of this, is if that doctor hadn't broken her water, she could have had a mag bag and likely carried them a few more weeks making their chance of survival much, much higher. After my mag bag and fetal surgery for an identical twins-only condition, I carried them not just to full term 35 weeks, but to 37. If I hadn't gotten the mag bag to make it to surgery, they'd have died much like this woman's sad journey. I don't think I'd have handled it any better. (Most) Girls do weird things as kids, we put pillows on, laugh about being pregnant and pretend-play shock when we find out it's twins. When it happens in real life, twins seems other-worldly. As for diapers, much like it's shown all throughout this site, the body begins to push fluids out wherever it can as the body begins to break down. Newborns have bile (meconium) and urine in their bodies already. In fact, there's alarm bells and all hands on deck in cases where the newborn releases meconium before it is born, due to infection risk. |
