We went for our 12 week scan today and right away I could tell something was wrong - there was a blob instead of the disco dancing baby I remember from my previous 12 week pg scans.

Despite pg symptoms continuing and an enlarging tummy (and uterus) the baby died around 7 weeks.

Now I have to have a d & c.

This baby wasn't originally planned, and DH & I viewed it initially as a disaster, but now I am sad - had got used to the idea, and was actually quite excited. We had told a few people too - now we have to tell them the bad news.
