Remember how excited Bailey and Ben were at the thought of bringing a baby into the world? Their happiness soon turns to grief when Bailey suffers a miscarriage in the fall finale. She had just discovered that Chief Herrera's tumor was lymphoma when she began bleeding. Though Ben attempts to comfort her when they learn she's miscarried, Bailey is too overwrought and begs him to do anything but stick around "with those sad, beautiful eyes."
She immediately bumps into Amelia as she's leaving her hospital room, with the younger woman telling her that she's taking her advice to get an ultrasound. Not wanting to scare Amelia, Bailey keeps her devastating news to herself. Instead, she fibs that she elected to find out the gender of her baby, revealing that it's a girl. Or it would have been.
