Hi Babyluv,
Thanks for checking in on me I appreciate it!
Went to gp yesterday, she said there is no point in having another blood test because it's not really going to add anything at this point. I had some spotting and cramping on sunday arvo and some really painful cramping once on monday (no spotting) and nothing since. But at the time because i was having that she said she thought it might probably all happen by tomorrow....but if not she gave me the blood test form to go get another tomorrow. Since there is nothing i probably will head down in the morning. She said she will call the hospital and organise a D&C for me tomorrow also if nothing else has happened. My pregnancy feeling has totally gone so I'm pretty certain within myself it's over (although i'm still looking pregnant which sucks!); but if i do have the D&C i'll ask for another ultrasound first just to get rid of all the ' what if's '.
Oh sweetie I wish you didn't have to go through all of this its so unfair. Please if you need to talk we are always here for you. Inbox is always open xxx
It makes me so sad to read ur posts It brings back so many awful memories. It happened to me at 9 weeks also but I only found out cos i started spotting. Thank goodness for that though cos I probably wld have trotted off to my 12 week scan expecting a baby only to find nothing. From the first day of spotting it took about 3-4 days to properly miscarry, for me Im glad it happened naturally, I needed to go thru the physical pain as well as the emotional pain to really let go. I think waiting a week or 2 for the d&c is a good idea, if u can handle playing the waiting game.
Please be gentle on yourself, if u do happen to miscarry naturally ur emotions will be all over the place as ur hcg levels drop. I was hysterically crying for 24 hrs straight. It really is a horrible thing to lose something that u want so badly.
Come on here anytime u need to chat, our dhs sometimes arent the best ppl to talk about these kinds of things too. My dh brought home a few friends after work the night after i miscarried, i cldnt believe it. The funny thing is hes not someone that has friends over and hasnt done so since, it sounds awful but i think he probably just needed to escape the sadness i was bringing into our home.. IYKWIM. With saying that though make sure u support each other, he wld be hurting as well, they just deal with it all differently. Us girls need to talk talk talk to feel better!
Hi Everyone, Just thought i'd update you on the goings on.....
So i had another blood test last week and hcg had dropped to 78k (from 115k). sent form on the thurs morning to hospital for d & c. Left it until monday and I hadn't heard anything from the hospital....so i rang them. apparently they didn't get my fax :S so i had to fax it again to a different number and I attentioned it to the lady i spoke to. Went to the doc yesterday(wed) and had another blood test and an ultrasound - just wanted to make sure in case i did have a d & c. sac had gone down to like 2.6cm (from about 7cm) and my hcg came back this morning as 28606K. so it really is all over for me......but i still haven't heard from the hospital!!! not going to bother ringing them.
Guna take it as a sign that I should just wait until i miscarry naturally. i wasn't really feeling that confident about going in for the d & c anyway so i'm not totally disappointed. but it would be nice to have this all over and done with. oh well. i did have it in my head (and i told my hubby) that if the bloods came back over 30k today then i'd ring hossy and if under i'd just wait.....so took that as another sign just to wait.
thanks so much for your support. Hope you are all well. xx
oh and yes reet hormones are all over the place. i felt like the hcg must of dropped majorly because i've been sooo down and tired the past couple days !! hormones are frustrating at times aren't they!
Oh kirley I hope u get thru the next week ok. How unprofessional of the hospital not to get back to u! Maybe it really is a sign that ur meant to be miscarrying naturally though. Stay strong and take care of urself. Oh and give that baby boy of urs lots of extra cuddles! xxx
We're all here for u!
Kirley so sorry this is happening. I decided last Friday that I would have a d and c for my mmc but my body took over on the weekend and I'm thankful for that. I hope your body is the same. Either way know that there is a whole community of ladies supporting you here. Big hugs to you.
Thanks so much for all your support and encouragement. xx I really appreciate it.
had a bit of an bad morning with other mum's at playgroup asking if i was pregnant and when i said no they said 'are you sure' and kept pestering me so i had to tell....but an uplifting afternoon with a new phone and owed payments to me that pay off our credit card from centrelink so that was a nice end to the day. Still not as great as having a baby in my belly but it definitely made my week a bit better!
