a very difficult decision to make

I really agree with you, lovcie. A new-born baby will not be happy if she lost her mother since the day she was born. Who takes care of her? And also she will feel self-condemned even when she grows up. But the mother can give birth to another baby even though she will feel grived for the loss of the child. As time goes by, the new baby will ease her pain.

You are right, that is an extremely difficult decision to make. For me, I just couldn't make such decision. I would love the child, at the same time, I want the mother to be alive too. If there is only one to be choose, I would do the same as you. Gosh, why there couldn't be a perfect ending for everyone. Anyway, are you latino or Latina, watching univision?

It's a very difficult decision to take. If I were experiencing this. I would be very confused. If I choose, my baby is alive. My baby will grow, without my presence, and do not have a mother. But, if I live, I will feel lost my baby. I would say to doctor, to try to save us both.

Actually, if there is no other way but to choose between the two. It's practical to choose the mother. I have my own reason why I choose the mother especially if the mother has other kids to care for.

Hi friend, i will select the kid, mother have the ability to care about her self, but the kid needs more attention, so i support the kid and give more love and care to it. I am not interested in splitting the mother and baby, but the situation is in this sort, i will give importance to the baby

Yes I would also choose the mother rather than the child. If I'll choose the child, it's difficult for a child to grow up without a mom. It's never the same if you let an aunt or a sister or a grandma to take care of a baby, unless of course if they're not taking care of other children. If they also have their own children to take care of I think they would focus more on their own children first. I don't want my child be neglected unless of course if I'm a work at home dad then I can give my child the care that my child needs. But if I work outside home and just leave my baby to my relatives, I don't think that's a very good idea.

Oh, that's really a difficult situation. Maybe it differs from one person to another. I asked that one time to my husband and he said he would choose me. He said I'm so important to him. He couldn't live without me and if ever, we could have another baby.For me, I was speechless and having second thoughts. I'm thinking that I already had the chance in this world so why not give the baby to experience life also.It's really a tough decision to make.I hope we won't be in this situation forever.Happy mylotting.

it's terrible that the man must be in the sytuacji.ja probably would not be able to find, unless sooner I'm crazy! admire women have made your choice, it had to be a horrible experience.

I'm with you in selecting the mother's life. It's not that we put into our hands the decision or their fate but that's my point of view as of know. Besides, the couple can bound to make another one. If I'm in the shoes of the husband, I will be devastated if I lose my wife, she's my partner and nothing replaces her. I'm not saying that, the baby is replaceable, but only if I'm push with no choice but to select. Whew. I find the topic so tough. Easier said than done. Thanks though.

This is really a difficult scenario. You will be decide and caught at the middle of situation. I definitely sure, some mothers will choose to die than a infant will die. That is how the love of a mother prevails, to show the unconditional love.

Hello lovcie. Though you are just sharing the scenario of a tele novela, there are actually real events that really happened in real life. It is a very very hard decision to make on the part of all concerns. But allow me to share a biblical scenario (please note: I am not encouraging or discouraging one above the other) that would lessen if not eliminate guilt or remorse as a result of the incident. You may want to read Deuteronomy 22:6-7.

God gives life and He knows all the conditions to live and when to end mans' life. However, with this difficulty conditions and we have to make a decision among our love ones life may be I will offer to God the child because he/she still an angel and free from sin. I'm sure the child will go direct to heaven. Thus the mother may have another baby. Likewise, she can make reparation for the salvation of her soul when time comes to an end.

I'll keep the mother too for the same reasons you have.

Well Lovcie your thinking is right.Mother is the greatest gift for all of us from God that we never give the complete reward to our mothers whole life which she do for us.On other hand,baby is the great blessing but I agree with your thinking that in adverse situations we should choose our mothers.

I can't imagine I was sitting on that position,lovcie. this would be very hard to decide and may be I won't decide it by myself. I believe what you said that baby will be an angel forever in heaven, but it will be such as trauma to let it go -especially if this were the first birth.If I ask my husband and doctor, the most possibility is they suggest to save my life and tell me that I have another chance
