    Talking Goodbye FET baby (updated to Hello FET Baby!)

    We found out on Christmas day that our FET in december was a sucess. I was 4 weeks. On New Years Day (Thursday) at 5 weeks, I started cramping and then I bled for 4 hours, normal flow. The bleeding slowed down and yesterday it was only there if I wiped. Today the bleeding is starting up again and I need to use a pad. My heart is breaking as this is our second loss at 5 weeks. The specialist arranged for me to have a blood test on Friday and my HCG was 2195. We are having another one on Sunday to see if the HCG levels are doubling. Although I would love for this not to be a miscarriage, I know with this volume of bleeding and that I'm so early, means that it most probably is. The bleeding is continuing to get heavier. *sob*

    On one hand I don't want to get my hopes up that this one sticks but I just have a feeling that our little one has said goodbye. I was okay yesterday, but today I'm just constantly sobbing. We won't know for sure until monday morning, but it's so hard to greive when you don't know what's happening. We have both been praying that we can trust God in this circumstance. We've both been longing for a baby - I've always dreamt of being a mum and for us it seemed so real, so right. We've planned our next nine months and now that dream is being shattered, slowly.

    Thanks for listening, I just needed to type how I'm feeling.

    Ruth, sending you a million sticky vibes.

    I had pretty severe bleeding this pregnancy, to the point where I had blood running down my legs. I thought it was all over, but here I am, 20 weeks now and all going well.
    There are plenty of success stories after bleeding in early pregnancy.
    I hope you are another one of them.

    Take care.

    So sorry to hear that Ruth! I really hope that this is just a bad scare, and that your next appointment shows everything alright again. But, if it's not, then I pray that you'll be given the strength to get through this. Go ahead and cry, honey - this is something that is DEFINITELY worth crying for. And, vent away here - we'll always have a listening ear.

    Thanks everyone for your kind words and support. DH and I have been trying to stay busy and look towards the future. We know that God has plans for us and that he is good, regardless of how we are feeling. Your kind words have been a great comfort to me.

    We are off this morning to get the 2nd blood test done. The bleeding completely stopped overnight but my periods are only ever short anyway so we aren't getting our hopes up.
