Well, here's my story...I found on last Monday 4/4 that I had a missed miscarriage. I was 7 weeks 3 days along. No heartbeat on the u/s. Still measured fine and I have no spotting or cramping. It's been a week. I know this can take many weeks though and I'm not trying to hold onto a hopeless cause. It's been the worst week of my life. We had to "untell" our 3 young children and this is our 6th m/c, 3rd in only 6 months. I was on prometrium and crinone gel, heparin, b complex, prenatals...This was the first pregnancy that we actually went "all out" with the medical intervention. I go back on Friday for another u/s (at my request). I was going to schedule and have the d&c on Friday but I think I'm going to wait it out as long as I can. I just poas to see if it was getting lighter (because I haven't had any bloods in a few weeks)...the test line is dark and darker than the control line. Maybe my body just hasn't recognized the loss yet. I made the mistake of also heading over to the misdiagnosed m/c site...sigh.
Oh, Im so sorry. That is terrible! I went through the same thing when I was younger. Except my doc didn't tell me she thought something was wrong originally. I went for an appt and they did a scan. They were reluctant to give me pics but they did. She told me to come back the following week for another scan. I was young, didn't realize she thought something was wrong and she didn't tell me. So I went back the next week and she told me that the baby hadn't grown anymore and there was no longer a heartbeat.
I was 14wks when she told me that (or should have been). Im honestly not sure how long the baby was in there with no heartbeat.
She sent me home and told me that everything would happen naturally.
And it did, but it took a few more days. It was heartbreaking.
So I went probably about 2 wks after the baby didnt have a heartbeat until I miscarried.
But I would def see what the second scan says. Because there are misdiagnosis often enough to make you second guess something like that.
I will keep my fx for you.
I didnt tell you my story to get you down. Just wanted to let you know Ive been through it, I know how it feels.
Like I said, I was VERY young when this happened. If it happened to me now and they wanted me to go in, I would want a second verification too!!!
My heart & prayers go out to you!!!!
