It doesn't make sense.

I am sorry but wasn't she nearly five months pregnant?

When you lose babies at this stage you don't just flush em down the loo.

She'd have to give birth to these babies.

Nearly 5 months, she would have needed to be induced surely? Thats a bit rediculous.

It's all ridiculous, the whole of the storyline is totally ridiculous.

Poor Becky, if this was a real life thing and Becky lived in my road she'd be in our guest room right now and Horrible Tracey would be back behind bars. Becky hasn't got a nasty bone in her body, I wish I could be like her, a lovely person and I'm so sad that she's going out of the show. I hope that the door's open so that she can come back and poke her tongue out to all those who doubted her. Shame on you, Steve, you were married to her and you should know her better than anyone. Ridiculous? Indeed it is!!

Who said she flushed them away?

She was taken by ambulance from the HOTEL by ambulance to hospital- we don't know what happened there...

If you think she lost them after her fall...you haven't been watching carefully enough...

I have a real problem with this story line. Its about time the writers did proper research and stopped treating the audience like idiots. 5 months pregnant and miscarrieage I still believe she would have had to have a D & C either as an inpatient or outpatient. Lets say even if she was only in hospital for a couple of hours, there is no way she would be up and about for a few days.

The police only have to contact the hospital to find out that Becky couldn't have pushed her down the stairs to cause the miscarriage.

But, that would be too easy.

I would thought so too, if she was that far gone surely as others have suggested she would have to give birth, would they not be fully formed by then, tiny but formed?

Becky's been nasty in the past she wasn't always nice. However even knowing all her history I wouldn't believe that she would intentionally push Tracey down the stairs in order to kill the babies. I would beleive however that she could get into an argument with her and push her out of fustration, forgetting that she was pregnant and not thinking she would fall down the stairs. I think Steve needs to get into his next toxic releationship. I don't know why he ever slept with Tracey again. What would have been interesting, was if Tracey had carried on seeing Frank and he had raped her. We might have seen a more vulnerable side to Tracey and maybe a change in her.

Rightly or wrongly even losing a 7 month term baby is called a miscarriage - even though you have literally had to go through labour and 'give birth'. It's just a technical term I suppose but not exactly the same as losing in the first few weeks.

No, 'induced' means they've had to artificially start a the labour off, in this case the labour started by itself i.e. cervix opened and she lost the babies.

EDIT: Just thought, did you mean induced as to hurry the labour on? Quite possible if she wasn't losing them quickly. I may have misinterpreted the meaning of your post!

She would only need a D & C if everything hadn't come away (if you know what I mean without getting graphic) if the foetuses were complete and had passed the placentas and all seemed well then she wouldn't need a D & C.

And women have actually given birth and been up and about in no time (out of hospital within a couple hours of birth) BUT they do advise resting for a bit and avoiding lifting heavy things etc because of the risk of haemorrhaging.

Do you think its realistic that she went to the toilet and passed 2 5 month fetus, the placenta's and all in one visit to the loo? Even at that far on the cervix would take time to open for this to even happen.

Also I was told anything up to 6 months is classed as a MC as a baby born inside 6 month would not have a high chance of surviving outside the womb, anything after 6 months is classed as a still birth.

I thought Tracy got taken away in an ambulance after suffering severe pains in the hotel (and possibly blood too but they didn't show us that icky bit). So where would a toilet come into it It all would have been dealt with in hospital.

Well when I lost a 7 month it was called a miscarriage. Quite a while ago now though so maybe the terminology has changed, I'll have to ask my niece who is a nurse on a gynaecology ward.

And by the way I put an edit on my original post.

Yeah sorry i as assuming that they babies had died inside her and she needed to bring on labour to 'pass' them. My friend went into labour with her twins at 31 weeks, so just a month after Tracey (if she was 5 months) and she was given tablets and pessaries to stop the labour, they managed to stop her labour for another 2 weeks before she gave birth to her two girls, who spent 9 weeks in special care unit before going home healthy! It was touch and go though in the first few days!

ETA: The toilet bit came from the OP.

Thanks for clearing that, my problem is that having a miscarriage is so traumatic, surely someone who has been through that would want to rest at home not go around getting into fights and arguments. The emotional and pschological trauma would be too much to handle. These are the things that I as the viewer would like the writers to research.

Then who was looking after Amy,
Ken was away or he would of known Tracey was at the hospital and would of asked why ?
They didn't phone Steve to look after Amy then he would of known what was going on!
If she had got anybody else that late at night they would have asked how Tracey was .

Ah, one of those million dollar questions
Someone must have been looking after her whilst Tracy was ranting and raving and causing havoc in the hotel. Deirdre maybe?

Welcome

I was shocked that she was meant to be 22 weeks pregnant, she was hardly showing, she should have had a massive bump for twins.
Also they would have been able to tell her the sex of the babies, at that stage in pregnancy you have to deliver the baby or babies and arrange a funeral but like chloeb says this is soapland.

This she was taken to hospital where she had the babies.We did not need to see anything of the miscarriage.

The Police can ascertain the date of the miscarriage but the fall down the stairs is still one word against another.

I suffered a miscarriage and was in hosp for 4 days, lost 2 pints blood and was given blood transfusion and fluid drips,was weak as water and anaemic for months after.

And i was only 11 weeks preg.

Tracey's miscarriage was the most unrealistic yet!!

Welcome to DS. Yes I agree with you. Tracy Luv's miscarriage unresearched big time.
