How would you remove it? C section? Much harder recovery than labor.

I think the idea behind it is, that by giving birth, helps in the grieving process. Don't know the actual psychology behind...

It's third trimester, which mean the baby is nearly completely formed. You don't have other choices since C section is riskier.

Not to be dumb, but, how does one deliver a third trimester still fetus? Are drugs involved? Does the body do it naturally?

9 years ago | Likes 19 Dislikes 0

Not dumb at all. Great question. Sometimes the baby won't be born and needs drugs. Sometimes it happens naturally.

Drugs sometimes but the body will often still go into labor even if it's a still born.

It's also a still used British Army term (albeit less commonly now), meaning New In Germany. It's given to the guys fresh out of training.

It was a somewhat common name for black dogs (maybe a black lab for ordinance sniffing in this case?) when the term was socially accepted.

Stallone sold Butkus to a little person. He really did not want to sell the dog back. Also, both the dog and said person were in Rocky.

IIRC selling the script didn't make him superrich, and he tried to buy the dog back for less money. The other guy kept declining. IIRC.
