A female United Kingdom, *inchy writes:

dear cupid,

i have just turned 17 years old and i have a brother(stephen) and a sister(skye) but they both died through still birth, my brother died 18 years ago through placental abruption.

my sister died last year but she died the day she was due and to the fault of a midwife, she informed us that my sister wasnt growing and was in danger and said she would deliver skye the following week when she should have delivered her that day, she realised her mistake and retired.

I am finding it hard and now my mum is 29 weeks pregnant and i am freaking out.

i am really worried that it is all going to go wrong again. They are delivering her 3 weeks early and that should reasure me but its not, what if he/she is stillborn again?. My mum only has 6 weeks till she is checked in to have the baby.

Please help me, it is tearing me up inside.

My mum had several failed pregnancies and my elder sister died the day she was born. Like your mum, the baby had stopped developing. After that, the doctors took more notice and - though both me and my younger sister stopped developing at one stage - they were able to resolve the problem and we were both healthy.

DrPsych agony auntYou have to try to remain calm for your Mum - it is important she isn't stressed in late pregnancy. My niece died at birth three years ago and it was a devastating loss for the whole family. It was very similar circumstances to what has happened in your family.

But two years ago my sister in law had a bouncing baby girl. I am sure the doctors have been keeping an eye on your mother this time given what has happened before. Try to look on the bright side of things - still birth doesn't necessarily mean that there is something wrong with your Mum as it happens for a variety of reasons. Good luck !

camille agony auntYou poor lamb. It must be incredibly stressful for you all. All I can say is to try and have faith in the medics this time and be strong for your Mum. There's no way of knowing what will happen, but everyone will be doing everything possible to make this a successful birth. All you can do is try to relax (maybe meditate) and try to remain calm. A peaceful environment can only help.
