That is pretty much impossible.

It is plausible to mess some of this up and end up with a database
instance that is missing the trailing end of changes because recovery
aborted early somehow.  But missing changes *in the middle* is not
possible, unless you are encountering a serious bug.

I suggest that there is some other confusion or misunderstanding going
on.  Just to be sure, make sure you are using the latest minor version.
