I don't know, but I have heard that the soul, or life essence of the individual doesn't really settle into the body until birth, or maybe after. It can be in or out. I have a memory of being out of my body when I was a baby. I was looking down from above,
I don't think the soul is really committed to taking it on. Maybe it changes it's mind, or the plan changes..That is one possibility.
I agree with Really, that the lesson is not for the baby, it is for the parents and the family. Their lives are permanently altered after such an experience.
