Hi

When i am pregnant i've no vomiting, giddiness and my weight increases by 3kgs every month.I had no pain till my due date.The day before my due date, the doctor tested me and there was slight yellow discharge and she didn't say anything about that. she did a C-section on my due date but the child was lost.
can anyone tell me about the reason for my child loss. Is yellow discharge could also be a reason.
I'm also very much worried about the next pregnancy.

What to say on this, except that it seems to be complete carelessness of your doctor. You should have demanded for justification for C section before they have gone ahead with this. I am not denying the possibility that there could be something wrong which resulted your baby lost but atleast you deserve proper justification of everything.

I agree with Archie here that you could have asked for yellow discharge investigation also.

If you don't mind please let me know where do you stay and which hospital have you done this operation?

Suggest to see some good doctor before planning for baby in future.

take care..Sudha
archie replied. Dear Saki,
Sorry to hear your loss, it's always saddening to loose baby at any stage of pregnancy but yours is even worse as you have had C-section to deliver your unborn child.
There seems huge ignorance in your case.

Yellow discharge could have been two reasons,
one and more looks like is a bacterial infection. Might have been reached to fetus and you had fetal loss prior to discharge or between time you noticed discharge till you were undergone C-section.

yellow discharge could also be the reason of loosing mucus plus, very preliminary stage of your labor first step. No one can assure at that time whether you will enter in labor in a day or in a week or two.

If there was drastic drop in fetal movements following this discharge or before the discharge, you both, yourself and your Dr. should have worked on knowing the wellbeing of fetus by performing BPP.

Even if you were scheduled for C-section on your due date I don't however understand why all of sudden rush for surgery, mean was there some reason to jump on this or just becase it was your due date. If that was because of EDD then that's not sufficient reason to perform C-section.

In order to confirm that was a mucus plug or infection certainly your discharge or placenta had to be investigated further to know possible infection. Having not done these analysis it remains mystery.

It could go either way a mucus plug or infection.
C-section why? I do not understand reason.

What's important now is to get over what happened and do not try for another 2 to 2.5 years for the next baby. Had that been a vaginal delivery by inducing labor then I would have recommended to try soon after 2 cycles. But now after C-section it's risky to try for first 2 or 2.5 years.

Very sorry for your loss, may God bless with with a healthy baby in future.
