Well in September 2008 my hubs & I decided to TTC baby #4 I usually get pregnant very quickly but we didn't get a BFP til December 4 2008 when I realized I was 4 days late. So we told everyone cuz I had 3 normal healthy pregnancies with our sons & didn't think this pregnancy would be any different. Well on December 13 I went to the bathroom & when I wiped there was blood so I freaked out & called my hubby in & we called the Dr. who told me that IF it was a miscarriage it would be over in a couple hours with heavy bleeding & cramping so I waited for this heavy bleeding which didn't come & the cramps were no more than like a menstrual cycle so I went to bed & when I got up in the middle of the night the bleeding was very light & the cramps had stopped.

so on that monday December 15th I went to have my HCG levels checked & they were 10,000 so they were good on December 16th I went for an U/S & to our wonderful surprise the baby had a heartbeat so we thought that everything would be fine I went home & was on bed rest well I started to have more cramping & bleeding so on December 17th I had my HCG levels checked again but this time they were only 9,000, they went down which I knew that wasn't good so on December 18th 2008 we went for a second ultrasound & found that the baby no longer had a heartbeat,we were devastated, well that night I had severe cramping & really heavy bleeding & the next day when I woke up the bleeding had pretty much stopped so when I went to the Dr. to have my D&C done I told her I was no longer bleeding so she decided to just give me cytotec which would help get rid of any tissue that was left well when I left the Dr. office on the 19th I went straight to the hospital cuz my leg was very swollen & painful & what we found out was I have a huge blood clot in my left leg & since there really is no reason for me to get clots like that they are thinking that I have a blood disorder that causes clotting & that may have been the reason I miscarried but they have to do further test to find out....

So I was almost 7 weeks pregnant when we lost the baby & even though it wasn't there very long we loved it just the same as our other children so it has been very hard on us cuz I went from worrying about the baby to worrying about my leg so we didn't really have time to grieve so it hits us once in a while & we'll cry together & it helps
 
Im so sorry darling, it will take time, but it does get easier xx
 
So sorry sweetie. Its is a terrible thing for anyone to go through. I would take care of yourself, make sure you get you and your leg better. And when your ready you will grieve for your wee angel.
Its does get easyer.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
 
So sorry to hear about your loss. :hugs:

Please take care of yourself and make sure you do everything the Dr's say in regards to your leg. A blood clot in the calf. (DVT) is extremly serious and you need to concentrate on making sure thats gone.
Again, sorry for your loss.
 
so sorry for your loss hun! Hope you are feeling better both emotionally and physically soon!
 
So sorry your going through this Hun, :hugs:

They also think that could be why I have m/c's, they have sent blood off to test yesterday.

:hug:
 
So sorry :hugs: I hope everything works out for you in the end xx
