Leaving here for a while... Final Outcome on Page 12

[Mom2mmcjg]

So sorry you're going through this. I know you just want the waiting to be over, but wait a little longer. There are many many stories of women who couldn't see their babies on u/s until 10 weeks. Especially with a tipped uterus. Doctors will diagnose blighted ovum, then weeks later they'll find a healthy baby, just the right size. Doctors aren't always right, and it would be terrible to accidentally end the life of a child. Wait. Try this website too, www.misdiagnosedmiscarriage.com

Thanks for your support! Another day with pregnancy symptoms and no spotting. It's been almost 3 weeks since they predict things stopped developing and I haven't even started cramping or spotting

 

[BrandysBabies]

I am hoping and praying for you! But just wanted to let you know that it took me 5wks to pass the baby after it died. I am hoping upon hoping that they just did you ultrasound too early and that you still have a healthy growing baby in there! Keep us updated!

 

[lemondrops]

Did you have any symptoms before those 5 weeks?

 

[stickylizard]

sorry to hear this its very sad news. take care xxx

 

[BrandysBabies]

No. I was 12wks along when I started spotting. I had had a scan at 8wks and everything looked great. Wiggling baby, BH of 177. Perfect. When I started spotting I went to the hospital and they did a scan. They told me that the baby never developed past 8 1/2 weeks. I spotted for a week and then finally passed the baby. So it was a total of a little over 5wks from the time the baby died to having the complete MC.

Thinking of you hun. So sorry. =(

 

[bumpin2012]

Oh, Honey, Im so sorry you are going through this!
Sending lots of hugs your way.

I will be thinking of you!

 

[KendraNoell]

I would definitely go get a second opinion if at all possible. Being on here for several months I have seen tons of people get told they are miscarrying or will probably miscarry and it turns out that the Dr/midwife/whoever was WRONG. Don't give up hope!!

 

[Rach27]

So sorry you're going through this hun
First of all, as I understand it, you cannot have suffered a blighted ovum if a yolk sac was identified. Secondly, can you be sure your dates are correct?
I don't want to get your hopes up if it is an early loss but I want you to be certain.
I had a blighted ovum in July. I found out at around 6 weeks and within days I started bleeding. I had no more pain than a usual period but it lasted about 2 days longer.
I really hope things work out for you but please PM me if you need to talk xx

 

[lemondrops]

I am sure of my dates. I know when my LMP was and when I got positive OPKS. I found out at 13DPO, so I could have been 6 days off at the max... any sooner then that and there's no way I would've seen a BFP. I'm not sure why the tech and midwife called it a Blighted Ovum if it wasn't that...

 

[megangrohl]

Possibly because they wanted to give you an answer. Sometimes doctors/nurses/health professionals are wrong. I'd say it's an early MC if you are 100% sure of your dates but you could be wrong too. If there has been no progress in another week or so then I think it's safe to say it's an early MC (or even a missed miscarriage since you have been waiting for so long for it to happen) but I hope that doesn't happen to you. Keep us posted with what happens and take care of yourself.

I'm so sorry you're going through this.

You mentioned that you were anxious about having a D&C, so I just wanted to reassure you that IF you have to, it's really not that bad. Honestly. With my first, I found out at 12+4 that the baby had died around 10 weeks (there were no signs that I'd miscarried). I opted for a D&C and it was a good decision for me. It was pretty much painless and I had minimal bleeding afterwards. It was hard, but it gave me a chance to say goodbye and then feel a sense of closure instead of dealing with bleeding and the fear of retained tissue for weeks.

Things will get better, but it definitely takes time. Be kind to yourself and give yourself permission to grieve however you need to. I'm so sorry. There's nothing fair about this

 

[lemondrops]

So my midwife called to order some bloodwork. She wants to check my HCG because the radiology report says that the pregnancy may still be viable. There was appropriate growth (in everything but the embryo, obviously) and the sac still looked healthy and showed no signs of collapsing.

I am not getting my hopes up... because 3 days she was telling me that I was going to miscarry

 

[3buutifulgirl]

well I am hoping for you...

 

[brittanymc]
