She said:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><em>Tears were running down my face for the first 10-15 minutes I sat in the clinic. Everything in my heart was telling me not to do it. I remember being the only woman in the room who was upset. All the other girls were just carrying on conversation. \u2026 Some of them were even keeping pictures of their baby to take home. I decided that if the baby had a heart beat [sic] I wasn\u2019t going to go through with it.

I wish I would have had the nerve to tell her what I did. So I could have at least tried progesterone supplements to reverse it. But I didn\u2019t. I went in and she did a vaginal ultrasound that Monday and my baby had a heart rate of 119.

Instead, she simply waited and hoped her baby would survive.\u00a0Two days later, she passed a large blood clot. She called her doctor then and went back for another ultrasound.
