I was diagnosed with a blighted ovum back in March/April at 9 weeks I miscarried about on April 13, I was a little over 10 weeks along. They assured me this was a rare occurrence and shouldn't happen again.

Well it did in a BIG way.....

I got a +Pt on June 19. I went to my midwife two days ago at 9 weeks 4 days.

What they saw shocked me! THREE EMPTY SACS!

They, again, diagnosed me with three blighted ovums. The sacs were empty, no heartbeats detected.

I completely prepared my self for a loss this will be my fourth miscarriage in 3 years, i'm almost used to it by now.

However, A nurse called me this morning to give me my lab results. She said my HCG is 25,000 which is an indicator of multiples at 5 weeks. She continued to say that what they saw on the ultrasound is normal at 5 weeks as well (i.e. no heart beat).

Could it be remotely possible that there's still a chance?

My midwife said not likely with the timeframe of the + PT, but that was also before the lab test results.

This will be my one and only shot a twins I'm sure I'm holding on to false hope.

Your input is greatly appreciated!
 
If you aren't bleeding, there is no harm in waiting. Asked to be rescanned in 10 days. I did that with my recent MC to be sure and even got a second opinion. Fx hon!
 
If you can handle it, I would just wait and see, if for no other reason than to give yourself peace of mind. I'm so sorry you are having to go through this. I had a blighted ovum in october and I was also assured it was most likely a one time occurrence, but I am nervous to start TTC again due to it, so I cannot imagine going through that four times as you have. I hope you have a good outcome and it isn't a miscarriage after all. Prayers!
 
Thanks ladies! I'm trying really hard to just wait it out, but it's hard. I did start spotting last night so things don't look good. I'm trying to be positive and hoping maybe I'm losing one and not all three. I guess I'll know for sure on Tuesday, only two more days. I'll keep you posted.
 
Are you getting another ultrasound on Tuesday, or just repeat blood work? Good luck... :hugs:
 
Hope all goes well for you.. Sometimes when it's multiples they date a little behind initially so here's hoping xx
 
Mrs. White- yes, I'm getting a repeat ultrasound and blood work.

Dolly - I didn't know that they measure behind, but definitely makes sense. Thanks for the info.
 
I know its, been while and left you ladies kind of hanging, sorry!

I went to a fertility specialist and he wanted me to catch the pregnancy and have it tested. I got the results a few weeks ago, which said they were normal, identical twin girls. So no answers really.

On Monday I got a BFP so I'm crossing my fingers for success with this one.

thanks for your concern and support ladies, I really appreciate you!
 
Glad that you are okay. I hope that everything works out great for you this time. I am so sorry for your losses. Sending you lots of positive thoughts :)
