Hi all
I found out my twins had died on 9/7... i was 11 weeks, but the sac only measured 23mm, one only 11mm. Does anyone know how many weeks this usually corresponds to? they told me at one scan it was 5-6 weeks, and at one they said there was a 'mass' inside one sac that measures 10mm, which *could* be a 7 week embryo...so i don't actually know what happened and when.
Anyways...im still panicking and feeling its not over and its driving me insane. im sorry to post to many times here but each time something new happens i feel like i want to ask for advice.
so i started bleeding heavy on 10/7 for 2 days, which lightened up for a few days but i went back to a and e and i felt like something was stuck in my cervix and it was. that was removed and i was admitted.. they removed another large piece. i had an abdominal scan where the guy barely looked for 2 minutes and said it was fine. there was a small area of thickening.
went home and bled like a period for about 4 more days. now, 12 days after it started im still spotting brown which is stopping and starting, i still have slight back pain, and im still testing positive. they NEVER took HCG levels even once when i was in hospital 3 times. they only tested haemoglobin.
im so so worried i'll have to have a d and c. i went to the doctor she said my cervix was closed and there was a lot of old blood, she refused to give me a blood test or follow up scan unless i bled heavily again....this doesnt seem right to me?
i had a scan booked for tomorrow before i was admitted to hospital, but they cancelled it??? ARGHHH is there something wrong with me?
sorry for such a long rant post...i just don't feel like im getting the right follow up care that i need, even if its only for reassurance...it doesnt feel right
i just want a negative test!!!

I can't believe the medical personal treat us that way. I am so sorry you are not getting any answers. It may take a while for a negative test. If you aren't getting anywhere with them try a home pregnancy test every week or so to make sure it gets to a negative. Good luck sweetie. I am so sorry for your losses.
