So I contacted my doctor's office and they told me I should just go in. We had had our hospital bags packed for a very long time. And
um I'm a big planner so we just grabbed our bags and went on the way there I was extremely nervous I remember praying the whole way there and when we got there they brought in the first doctor and then they brought in a second doctor and a third doctor and by the fourth doctor the fourth doctor told us that there was no heartbeat anymore so while you are

And I was at 38 weeks. So I was full term. I was at the finish line. And so when the doctor told us, I mean. My husband still says he can hear it. I just let out the most imaginable scream ever. And I remember screaming like, oh my God, we had to call our parents. They were all at church because it was a Sunday. Everybody rushed up to the hospital and they couldn't give us any answers.

They couldn't tell us why. The only thing I was told is that I was going to have to deliver her knowing that she was gone already.

They did not do a C-section. So what happened was she was actually transverse. So she was still sideways. She wasn't even head down yet. And so they had to manually break my water. They waited till the following day, but they had to actually break my water and put me into labor. And then they delivered her stillborn already knowing that she passed away.

I don't. I think that if a C-section would have been necessary, they would have done it. But that wasn't even something that they talked to me about. So I'm not 100% for sure on that. I know they wanted to try to get her turned head down, which they did. And my labor was about four hours from start to finish. And so... And it's just very traumatic to even go through.

I don't have an answer as to why they waited till the next day. I don't know, because we had a lot of family up there. Our pastor came up there to pray with us. Ben and I were trying to understand exactly what was going on. And so they just set it up for the day after in the morning.

And what's crazy is that the day that we're doing this recording marks three days, or I'm sorry, three years from that exact. So it's three years today that we found out we lost.
