Re: Just found out that my unborn son has anencephaly

It's not true that your baby could cut you. The bones are far too soft to do that. Some doctors say that as they either don't understand the condition or they don't want you to carry on with the pregnancy. I have many friends from another support group who carried to term and not one of them was cut by their babies head, that is just a scare tactic. Your life is not in danger by carrying an anencephalic baby to term.
