My brother's girlfriend is pregnant of 6 months but today she lost blood !
She's now waiting at the hospital to see a doctor.
She already had some problems with this baby..

I'm a little bit scared right now..

Have a baby of 6 months..is it a least possible?

Oh, I hope everything turns out well!
I have a friend who was born after only 6 months of pregnancy and a friend's cousin was born at that stage of the pregnancy too, so it's possible. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you and your family!

I know that it's possible, even if it would be a struggle. As long as the baby is still alive; if she feels kicking, then it's not all lost. All the best vibes from me!!

It's possible the baby has a chance at this point. But don't lose hope- sometimes women bleed and it doesn't even mean there is something wrong with her or the baby. Sometimes that happens if she's been exerting herself a bit much.

I hope it is something easy to fix.

The doctors may just put her on bed rest. As Weirdmom says, it happens sometimes even when nothing is wrong. Best wishes, auntie.

2 times? Wow. If they can keep the baby in her I am betting she'll need to be on bed rest, at least for a bit. Sounds like she is having a tough time. : (

fingers crossed, and yes it's possible to have a baby only 6 months old but very very risky obviously. Bleeding isn't always a big problem during pregnancy.

Hi there
My sister-in-law had the same problem at 6 months. She was given steroids to strengthen the baby's lungs and was told to stay in bad until the end - very frustrating for her. In the end my niece was born a few days AFTER the due date. It is possible for a baby to be born at 6 months but they can experience a lot of problems (breathing, feeding and later developmental issues)
I'm wishing her well.

I kind of know what she's going through and it's tough. I had a miscarriage last year--it was God's will. Now, I am blessed with my little bundle of joy.

I'll say a prayer for the little one...there's always a chance.
