After Two failed IVF cycles my DH and I found out we were finally pregnant. At just past five weeks I started spotting and felt completely terrified. I waited so long for my baby and the thought of loosing it... Anyway I insisted that my RE Office see me and check up on the baby so at five weeks we had our dirst ultrasound and found out we were having twins. The MD saw no bleeding aroun the babies and assumed the spotting was from vaginal irritation caused by my progesterone inserts. I went another week without any spotting until one night when I sat down and blood POURED out of me. I didn't see any tissue but I was convinced I had just MC'd so I went to the ER after inserting my progesterone. We got to see our babies hearts beat for the first time at the hospital that night. All of my tests were perfect and they had no clue where I bled from. A week later we went back to our RE office and were informed that one of our twins heart stopped beating. The size of the twin indicated that it grew until the moment it passed. All blood work was perfect an they could give me no reason for the loss.
My REs aprn assured my that my remaining baby looked perfect, had a strong heartbeat and was growing beautifly. I went home terrified that te unknown element that claimed one of my babies would take the other.
A week later when I went in for my last check with my REs office (8w6d) I was told my remaining baby died. Again they had no explanation as my scans, hormones and fetal growth were perfect until the moment it died.
I just know that episode of heavy bleeding was related. I never spotted against after that. I wish I could share my REs thoughts on my losses, but I have not seen or heard from him since the ET. His APRN has handled all of my visits since then. I asked the OBGYN that was going to start my care to perform the d&c (I go wed) and I plan on sending the remains for genetic testing.
I'm just so baffled that I could loose both of my babies after they had a 95-98% chance to survive. Has anyone experienced this? Is it just me or is it to weird that I had all of that bleeding and then it just stopped.
I should say that I have had a several tests done to check for fibroids etc and nothing has shown up. I had Bloodwork which showed I have no autoimmune or clotting problems and I have zero infections which could cause this.
Thank you to everyone who read this very long and probably poorly written (quite emotional right now) story.
