My friend got pregnant when she was already 33years old. She had a difficult time for her. There was some bleeding when she was on her second month of pregnancy which prompted her to work home-based. On her fourth month she again spotted. Just this weekend, I got a message from her saying that she was again brought to the hospital. Then Monday afternoon, when I called her she was crying saying that she lost her baby. They couldn't hear any heartbeat anymore. When I visited her the following day, she just got out of the operating room. She had to deliver her stillborn baby. I didn't know what to do nor say. I know that she and her husband were really anticipating the baby. I can just imagine the sense of loss that she felt.
I wish I can do something more for her.
