    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.
