That is a very good point, though I voted before I read your comment. Late miscarriage just seemed to most likely outcome to me - maximum drama without lumbering the SWs with a severely affected child to deal with in the future.
Have voted for third trimester demise, hoping for a late termination following the anomaly scan’s revelation of severe spina bifida
No one really believes that the anomaly was not caused by drink but they tell Alice not to blame herself anyway ;- )
At one point someone found a link between babies with spina bifida and the mother having eaten potatoes with a green bit on one side. So green veg are good, but not if the veg is a potato.
I suppose the’green bit cut out of it’ should have alerted me to the possibility of ‘potto’ being ‘potato’. It didn’t.
Which of us that says most about I leave as an exercise for the reader.
That’s right, but anything beyond the second trimester would be roughly 26 weeks or more and people would be more likely to call that a premature birth than a late miscarriage. I think Kirsty was, um, about 18 weeks or so into her pregnancy? Perhaps 20, can’t remember. Enough to be baby-like without being viable.
