sign of undeveloped fetus

Hello everyone, I wanted to share my story in the hopes that it might help other expecting moms out there. This is a deeply personal experience, but I feel it's important to raise awareness about the signs of a fetus not developing properly. A few months into my pregnancy, I started experiencing some unusual symptoms that I initially brushed off as normal pregnancy discomforts. I noticed a significant decrease in my baby's movements. The occasional flutter I once felt became rare and weak. I also had persistent back pain that seemed more intense than what I'd heard was typical. Another sign was unusual and continuous spotting, which made me quite anxious. Despite these concerns, I tried to reassure myself that every pregnancy is different and that my symptoms were probably normal. However, my instincts kept telling me something was off. I decided to consult my doctor and have some additional tests done. The ultrasound revealed that my baby had stopped growing and there was a severe lack of amniotic fluid. After further tests, my doctor confirmed that the fetus was not developing as it should and, tragically, had no chance of survival. The hardest decision of my life was made – I had to terminate my pregnancy to avoid further complications and potential risks to my own health. Here are some symptoms I experienced that I urge every pregnant woman to take seriously: - Decreased Fetal Movement: If you notice a significant decrease in your baby's movements, contact your healthcare provider immediately. - Unusual Pain: Persistent and severe back pain can be more than just a normal part of pregnancy. - Spotting or Bleeding: Continuous spotting or bleeding should always be checked out by a doctor. - Abnormal Ultrasound Findings: Regular check-ups are crucial to monitor the baby's development and the amniotic fluid levels. If you ever feel that something isn't right, trust your instincts and seek medical advice promptly. It's better to be safe and have peace of mind. Sharing this has been tough, but I hope it helps other moms who might be in a similar situation. You're not alone, and it's important to talk about these experiences to support each other through such challenging times. Take care and trust your instincts.

Sorrows and prayers. Thank you for sharing your painful story. I am in constant worry about my current pregnancy as Ive experience a pregnancy loss last year and I was at risk of losing my current one in first trimester too. Would you mind sharing at which week you started feeling something is wrong and doc has confirmed that the fetus stopped developing?
