i am very sorry for your loss. i believe there are a couple web sites you can look up to find info. i know one symptom is a suddenly irregular shaped belly during labor. but i a dont know if this is always present. are you worried about the next pregnancy? if so, i imagine your ob will insist on a planned cesearean.

good luck, vicki
